Baseball

Well, hello! Melody here, and sorry for the long delay in writing. I'm going to try to keep this updated on a weekly basis, preferably on the weekends. Though I'm writing this on Monday. Sorry.

Samuel is currently in the midst of Little League baseball. He's plays pitcher, shortstop, and catcher (in that order). Last week we had a nail-biting game against Blanco that went 0-0 until the top of the fifth inning, when Blanco scored one run. We scored nothing in the bottom of the fifth, held them to nothing in the top of the sixth and arrived in the bottom of the sixth (and last) inning down 0-1.

Batter1 - walked.
Batter2 - struck out. One out. Batter1 stole second.
Batter3 - hit a double. Batter1 SCORES! Tied 1-1.
Batter4 - struck out. Batter2 stole third. Two outs.
Batter5 - walked.
Batter6 - Foul. Ball. Ball. Hit a single. Batter3 SCORES! Win! Win! Win!

Nail-biting, as I said. And that's just a sampling. :)
Quick update from the rest of us: Dad recently got a part-time worship leading position at a church (originally started by people from our home Wimberley church) in Canyon Lake. I'm busy querying my first young adult novel and writing my second. I write all about it on this blog. Mom takes care of the rest of us and steadily getting rid of all the junk that the previous owners left on our property by selling it on Craigslist. Clean yard + cash? I think yes. :)
