3-1 record now...

Courtney's team Aledo Flash has done really well so far this season. The last game came down to the final inning and they won!! Courtney came back in the top of the 3rd to really do some excellent pitching. We were all happy that my parents were able to attend. That is the first time (I think) they were able to watch her play and of course, pitch! Hoping they'll make it to Friday night's game.

Here are a few pictures of her.

2-1 record!

Courtney has officially had 3 softball games...and has won 2 straight! She does like hearing everyone cheer her on while she is pitching - I think it gives her the 'ump' she needs :o) Next week is another full week with softball - Monday practice @ 6pm, games on Tuesday @ 6:30pm, Friday @ 8pm and Saturday @ 10am. It's softball life again :o)

Can't forget to mention the fact that my parents are making their way out here to visit. They will be leaving Florida on Monday and arriving sometime on Tuesday. The kids are excited for them to visit.

Not much else happening around here.

Where has time gone?

I can't believe that Sunday is Easter already - time has flown this year AGAIN!

Well, Courtney got her palate expander last Wednesday and is adjusting well now. It is still hard for her to chew lots of things since food can get caught between the spring and the roof of her mouth. Here's a picture of her expander...
Finally, Courtney had her first softball game as Aledo Flash. She is the starting pitcher :o) It is wonderful to see all the hard work she has done over the last year with pitching lessons shine. I am so proud of her and her skills. Although they lost 6-5, it was mostly on their throwing or should I say over-throwing their own teammates. Aledo Flash really came together and played like a team. There were some great hits too!! I did take some pictures of her before her first softball game and then after her picture day on Saturday so here are a few of those...
