Game Two Results

Game two of the boys' baseball season had just as good of an outcome as the first. The team won 15-5 and all the boys played well. Although Alex has a baseball size bruise on his hip from getting hit by a pitch. I told him to get use to it, because it would be the first of many. In the first two games the boys' team has outscored their opponents 31-8, not a bad start-Go Cardinals! Also FYI, the game next Monday 4/27 was originally scheduled for 8:00pm has been changed to 6:00pm. Keep up the good work guys!

Game One Recap

The boys' first baseball game was last week and for those of you who weren't in attendance I thought I'd post an update. Alex and Brady were the lead-off batters and were ultimately responsible for scoring 5 runs between them and Alex had three RBIs in the 16-3 victory. Both boys had quite a few good fielding plays as well and the team as a whole looked very impressive in their first outing. The boys played some in the outfield but mainly played second base and short stop which seemed to be a good combo. Next game is Wednesday so hopefully it goes as well as last week. I'll keep updating!

The Boys 2009 Baseball Schedule

The boys have started baseball again, they have been practicing for about six weeks or so and I finally got their schedule for the season. They are playing for Wentzville Parks and Recreation and the are the Cardinals this year, which they are very excited about having been the Nationals and the Blue Jays in the past. I'm pretty excited about this too because it will make it a whole lot easier to have team spirit since we all already own plenty of Cardinal gear. They mainly play in Wentzville, Lake St Louis, or Dardenne which is good; however, all of the games are on weeknights and most don't even start until 8:00pm! Here's the schedule...

Hmmmm, doodlecakes?

So I was checking out my blogs site meter today (yes I'm working on Good Friday and I'm bored). I don't look at it very often, but when I do I always check out the location where the views are coming from which are usually from Missouri or at least the US. This time however, I noticed hits from Libya, Pakistan and Egypt. Curious about sudden on slot of foreign interest in my blog, I investigated further to discover that these page views, which were all on separate days, times, and countries, were all referred to my site after doing a google image search for "doodlecakes." Some of you may remember my post back June of 2007 about doodlecakes if not check it out here. I did the same search myself and sure enough there was the blog post link. I'm not quite sure why so many Middle Easterners are researching doodlecakes, but it's kind of fascinating to ponder.
