Mother's Day


I got to spend Mother's Day watching Austin play some baseball. The Bulldogs were in a tournament this weekend; they played two games yesterday (won both) and played two games today. They won the first, which put us in the championship game. They lost, but battled hard and played good ball. Austin was a superstar. He really is amazing, and even though I am biased, I am not the only one who holds this opinion. I overheard some players from the team we played in the championship game talking about how awesome the Bulldogs' shortstop is...so proud of my little ball player. I love to watch him play ball.

No better way to spend Mother's Day...
