Baseball is back!!! Carson was so excited to go to Granny & Pa's for the weekend.
And we were so excited to head to Missouri for the first baseball tournament in 77 days as their coach reminded them several times throughout the weekend. He kept telling them to smile and have fun b/c we haven't been able to do this in 77 days!
Miles was happy to be back with his friends...
...doing what they love.
They had a good weekend, finishing 3-1.
Unfortunately, they got put out in the semi-finals and didn't make it to the championship game. There were only a few restrictions due to coronavirus, handshakes being one. The boys stayed on their side of the field and tipped their hats to the other team when the game ended. I can't tell you how nice it was to have a normal (not a new normal) weekend.
It was obvious from the pictures that Carson was very happy and comfortable right where he was.
He even got to see Aunt Crystal.
We managed to squeeze in one home improvement project over the weekend. I've been wanting a better way to store our hats. We don't have a ton, so we just needed a little storage. Before...
After. I had been thinking hooks all along, but then I saw these shelves on Pinterest and knew we had a great place in our closet to make it happen. Not too fancy, but functional and very cost effective.
Since we had a long weekend, the boys still had time to swim...
...and fish.
Unfortunately, the clouds moved in not long after we got there, so our time was cut short.
It was still nice to be outside for a little while together.
Miles caught a turtle for Carson. He loved it and wanted to keep it, but I convinced him to set him free.
We enjoyed the long weekend so much. The rain chances were high on Saturday and Sunday. I am so thankful that it stayed away and let the boys play ball. Now, we are signed up to play the next four weekends, so we'll how long everyone's excitement lasts :) Darrin will be getting back to work (camps) in the upcoming weeks which will leave me solo for a few tournaments. I'm going to do my best to remember this long break and how much I've wanted to get back to normal and watching baseball. So, no complaining...just enjoying!!!
