Last Sunday, the boy finished his last pitching clinic. It was a day of competition. And when all the boys lined up in three lines to pitch, the coach put Zachary in his line. After two rounds to see who could throw the most strikes, it came down to Z and another boy. With everyone …
Last week gave us a lovely glimpse of spring. We had our outdoor practice on a warm 60 degree day. The birds were chirping, blue skies abound, but as much as I wished winter was over, old man had more in store for us….and he brought his companion, Artic wind blast. A quick snow storm …
So last Saturday after out basketball game, the boy wasn’t hungry. He went upstairs to play with his buddies. As day shifted into night, still no signs of hunger. Weird, I thought. The boy is not eating. Aroubd 5, Z came downstairs to eat and while in the kitchen..the big one occurred. A massive throw …
Some times the little things make you happy. Like when you realize that your Tuesday basketball practice has been switched to Monday at 7:30…and it’s already 7:30. That my friend is when panic mode takes hold. But after a few back and forth emails with the team, we opted for an outdoor practice at the …
It’s been a tough basketball season. We won our first game last weekend in a nail biter. With 40 seconds left, our left wing hit a shot to seal the win. It was so rewarding to see how excited the boys were and after several losses was well deserved But that hat excitement was short …
Our weekends for the past few weeks have been all about basketball and baseball. Zachary is in week 4 of a 6 week pitching clinic. Boy are we glad to have signed up for it. They have completely transformed his wind up. He now looks more like Roy Holliday’s mechanics Lucky for the boy …
Its no secret that mommy is not a winter lover. In fact, I really do believe that the artic wind is my calous enemy. How could it be so cruel! It’s as if we taunt each other while running. Me seemingly running in place while 20 mph winds blast me from all directions. Doesn’t it …
Yesterday we played our third game and although we played much better, we still didn’t get the win. Not the start that mommy wanted, but the team continues to improve. Matter of time before we get our first win. With that said, the boys took their pictures on Saturday. It was cute to see some …
Last weekend, we played our first basketball game. Unfortunately, we didn’t get the win. I was super happy how they battled back after being down by 8 in the first half. The final, 12-8 became a close one after Zachary made his first shot. With only a minute and a half left, we ran out …
Its been awhile since we’ve had any baseball updates. For the past couple of years, the boy has pitched with training in the form of Tom House videos. And while he did an okay job, we knew this year he really needed mechanic lessons. After much searching, we settled on a pitching clinic in Wilmington. …
