Softball Champs!

Last night we picked Mike up from the airport  (I can't even tell you how precious it was to watch Brody and Barrett run and jump into Mike's arms as he walked through the doors by baggage claim!), dropped off Wade (one of his contractors), and then came home.  As soon as we got home Brody was begging Mike to play catch.  He played for 1/2 hour and then we ran to grab a bite to eat on the way to our softball game. 

It was the last night of game for the fall season for our co-ed softball team, Snap Fitness.  We knew it was a playoff game, but didn't realize we'd be playing 2 games.  We won our first game and then waited around an hour or so before we played the 2nd game.  We won!  This meant we got a huge team trophy and championship t-shirts!  Pretty great ending to my first ever softball season. 

There was only 1 injury in tonight's game....Barrett's face!  When he ran up to me after our last game, I couldn't help but say, "WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR FACE?!?!?!"  I shouldn't have said it like that because it wasn't until then that he started to tear up.  Apparently the kids had been throwing the ball by one of the empty ball diamonds.  When the ball went over the fence, they decided to climb the fence to get it rather than going around.  Brody's pretty good at climbing fences....Barrett obviously isn't (yet)!  He fell as he was trying to get down on the other side and landed on the gravel warning track (face first).  There were gravel size gouges in his forehead and a road burn on his upper lip!  I sure am glad I took Christmas pictures already!
