Global Baseball and more..

Global Baseball returned for the 4th year to hold a outreach baseball clinic for the area little league.  The weather was overcast, windy and chilly.  Pastor Anthony led everyone in a prayer and specifically asked God to let the sun shine down on us.  Right after his prayer it became sunny!  It was awesome to see such an immediate answer to prayer.   This year Zac led a group of kids around to different stations and I helped with the sign in table.  The guys from Global Baseball came and spoke at church and gave away autographed balls that Sunday.  This past week at church we had a showing of The Rookie as a followup to the clinic.  We had the party trailer for both events so we had cotton candy, popcorn and snowcones.  Zac ended up covered in cotton candy as he was wrapping it on cones for kids!

Our church softball league has started up again.  I'm keeping the scorebook and Zac is playing short stop.  He had some great moves both games as he was diving and catching balls.  Unfortunately we lost both games 12-11 and 16-8 but it was still good exercise.  There is a bit of a division with the serious players and allowing anyone to play as an outreach.  Please pray for unity and good sportsmanship.

Other news .. Pastor Vinny graduated from Mid-America Seminary  last weekend.  Way to go Vinny!!  He has such a servant's heart and it has been wonderful watching him grow and be used by God.  The kids did really well through the service.  I was a bit nervous but it all worked out.

We are wrapping up our school year.  The kids seems to have a fire underneath them the past few days.  They have been asking to do extra lessons.  Their goal is to finish by the end of May.  Our last co-op is this next week.  We need to come up with a "county fair type game" and the kids will also be having a field day with potato sack races, relay races, etc..  They are looking forward to it.

We are about 6 weeks away from our vacation to the shore and we are so excited!!  We bought boogie boards, swim suits, and water shoes over the past couple weeks.  Yesterday I scheduled Bo's boarding for while we are away.  I get to see Bailee when we take him there so that is an added bonus!

Today is rainy and chilly again.  We have appointments to see 3 houses this afternoon so maybe one of them will work out.... Our landlord here emailed us that she was being transferred and would be putting this house on the market so there is now a litle more of an added rush.  That's it for now!
