A blog about me and the stuff that I like and dislike. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/ en-us Homeschool Blogger Fri, 28 Jul 2006 12:28:00 -0500 Fri, 28 Jul 2006 12:28:00 -0500 Here's a really funny TACO TOWN commercial.     <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NEF-3PiQdq0"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NEF-3PiQdq0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/174445/ Fri, 28 Jul 2006 12:28:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/174445/ Time for an update.  I've been having a lot of fun playing baseball and golf lately.  Our team is undefeated so far with 3 more games to go (and then a tournament).  I've been hitting really well and I play 1st base.   My golf game is really improving.  I'm playing in a tournament on the 25th, and then after the baseball tourney, we'll find some more golf tourneys in the area to play in.   The weather has been really weird here lately.  It's either hot as heck, or rainey.  We missed out on a practice and a game this week because of rain.  We also missed out on Six Flags because of rain.  Instead we went to Pirates of the Carribean. It was a good movie, but not as fun as Six Flags would have been.    We planned our September vacation and we'll be going to Anaheim for a few days and then to San Diego for a weekend.  While in Anaheim, we're going to go to Disneyland for 3 days and to an Angels game.  While in San Diego we're going to sightsee and snorkel.   We'll try to get to Six flags in October.   Well, that's it for the update.  Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/166213/ Thu, 13 Jul 2006 09:13:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/166213/ We had our first game last night.  It was great.  We won 19-2.  I got to bat 4 times. I had 2 good hits and 2 hits to 1st base.  I got out on those, but did get an RBI off one of those hits. I played 1st base and left field.   Tomorrow and Sunday we have a tournament..  It will be fun to see how good all of the teams in our league are.  We have to leave our house at 5:30 am to drive there and we have our first game at 7:30am.  If we win , we play again at 1:30pm, if we lose, we don't play again until 5:30pm.  I really hope we win!!  http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/148314/ Fri, 9 Jun 2006 09:53:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/148314/ Our library has a summer reading program.  For every 2.5 hours you read, you get a book.  Yesterday we turned in our time sheet and got to pick from a big shelf of books.  I was hard to choose because there were a lot of good titles.  I'm going to hurry and get in another 2.5 hours so I can get another book I want.   Also part of the library program is a Tuesday night activity. Last night it was a fly fishing lesson.  We learned how to put together a new fly fishing pole and how to put the line on etc.  When that was done (it took a long time) they showed us how to cast. It was pretty hard to get the hang of.  Anyway, when the lesson was over, they let us keep the pole and the reel we worked on. Cool huh? http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/147134/ Wed, 7 Jun 2006 10:11:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/147134/ Cool, huh?   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/146747/ Tue, 6 Jun 2006 16:24:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/146747/ Today we went to "Touch a Truck".  It was just a bunch of different kinds of trucks (and a helicopter) in a big parking lot.  You could go sit in, and check out the trucks.  It was fun.     inside the humvee     me in the humvee     Here's the helicopter   My brother and I in the firetruck         http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145156/ Sat, 3 Jun 2006 16:20:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145156/   We all got new laptops.  My dad got a Gateway and mom and the rest of us got Toshibas. They are cool.           http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145153/ Sat, 3 Jun 2006 16:17:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145153/ Well it has been a while since I last posted (like 4 months)!  Here's a quick update. We got to our new house in the middle of March.  It took us a while to settle in.  We really like it here though.  There is a great activity center where we can swim, play basketball, racquetball, and there's a game room.    We started baseball practice a couple of weeks ago and our first game is in a couple of weeks.  I'm going to play 1st base and maybe pitch.   Golf starts in a couple of weeks also.  I'm really excited to start that.   Here's a pic of our house.  We've started building another one because this one only has 3 bedrooms and we need 4.  But it's comfortable .       http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145152/ Sat, 3 Jun 2006 15:30:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/145152/ We're moving soon.  We're just waiting for our house to be finished.  I'm excited about the move because we will be near a cool golf course.   After we move into this house, we're going to build another one that we like better.  That will be cool.   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/79164/ Sun, 5 Feb 2006 21:37:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/79164/ Last week we went to Build-a-Bear workshop. I made a Husky and his name is Vladamir Grrr-erro (after Vlad on the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim). Here he is along with Spike, and Andre Bear-ilenko (after Andre Kirilenko of the Jazz).   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/76904/ Wed, 1 Feb 2006 13:51:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/ILoveBaseball/76904/
