Change to Championship game

Drew got a phone call from his coach today while we were at work. According to him, the championship game is now Thursday at 6pm instead of Wednesday. We did go to Church last night, and drove thru the park, to see if the other game was on, but it wasn't. We are assuming thats why ours has been changed. So we hope some family and friends can make it Thursday now instead of Wednesday. Thanks all.

Bavarian Parade and other high lights

Drew and Bryce watching the parade.



The big duck the boys really liked.



The Bronners float.



The picture of Wally at the front of their float.

The boys and I went to the Bavarian Parade today with "G", Papa and Aunt Robin. Great Grandma sat with us as well. Uncle Bob and Connie also met up with us for awhile. We saw Brad and Ryan in the parade.


Adam got back into town tonight about 8pm. He actually met us in Bay City at Wendy's where we had gone to eat along with my parents. The boys were excited to see him, but I think I was more excited!! They won the tourney they were at, so I guess the trip was worth it. I asked him if I had to share the big bed tonight, and he said, "no, you can cleep on the couch if you want?" LOL turkey. It was nice to have the whole king size bed to my-self, but I did have a hard time falling asleep without cuddling with him. The boys slept on the couch both nights, both b/c I liked them being down here with me, and they wanted to. WTG on your home run today hunnie, and Congrats on winning the tourney. ALSO Happy Fathers Day. Hard to believe you've been a daddy for 11 years!!! CRAZY!! I love you.

Play offs....

Drew's team got 2 innings in tonight before the lightening came. It had been sprinkling for a bit, and thundering, but then it was called for a lightening delay. After about a 15 minute wait, and the lightening not stopping, the game was called and rescheduled for 1pm on Saturday. We are unsure b/c the game was tied 2-2, if they will just start a whole new game, or pick-up where it was left off at. Anyways, I had done laundry and packed today so we could go to Petosky. We went to Papios for dinner, came home, and Adam left alone. I have un-packed most of our stuff, but was quite bummed that we were unable to go. There is already 1 boy on Drew's team that is unable to make the 1pm game tomorrow, so he kind of really should be there. Adam just texted me and told me he just passed West Branch. He should be to our friends house about 11 or a little after. Anyways, I cried when Adam left, b/c I really wanted to go with him. O well. Last year, Adam and I were going thru some VERY tough times. I texted him earlier and told him how far we had come in a year. Last year I was looking forward to him leaving for this tourney so I could have a weekend away from him. This year I cried when he left. I am tearing up right now, which seems stupid, b/c he may even be home tomorrow night, if they loose. Anyways, Just wanted to post on here that he plays Saturday at 1pm, and we are still in town, well the little boys and I are.

Major's play offs

Drew's first play off game was last night. They won I believe 10-7. He got a hit and made it to 1st, stole to 2nd and 3rd on over-throws but the next guy up struck out, so he never got home! Oh well. It was a great game, and he had LOTS of family there cheering him on. They now play at 5:30 on Friday night. Hopefully they win, and won't play until Monday evening. If thats the case, we can take of to Petosky, like planned. If they lose, Adam takes off alone, and I get to stay in town for a game on Saturday. Good luck Drew!! WTG on your hit and win.

Up-date on my nephew

My sister called me on Monday afternoon, but with the storm on Sunday night, we lost power for awhile, and when that came back on, we found out that it had knocked out our dish and Internet. Adam was able to fix dish, but I was on a waiting list for Internet, therefore I was unable to post any up-dates. They came today and fixed us!! So we are back into the blogging world!! I had over 200 e-mails to read and had to catch up on every ones blogs and see the comments about an up-date on my nephew...so here goes.

They were told over the weekend to put warm compresses on the sore, and hopefully get the gunk to come to a head so they could squeeze it out at the Dr. office. I don't think it ever really came to a head, but she did take him back on Monday afternoon, and they found out that it is a staff infection, but the antibiotics they have him on are killing it. The swelling has gone down, but he does have quite a rash from the meds. His Dr would rather see the wound shrink and keep an eye on the rash, so I guess thats the plan for now. MRSA from what I understand is a form of a staff infection, but it has not been called MRSA. As long as the meds he is on keep killing it, and the swelling keeps going down, they will keep him on this, and just watch it all the time. So until I hear more, thats all I know for now. Please keep them in your prayers until he is completely out of the woods, but so far prayers have helped and he is getting better. Thanks so much for all your prayers and concerns.

A scary ordeal for my nephew in FL

Hey all. I have a prayer request once again. My sister that lives in Florida called me this morning crying. Here is the story that she told me. Last summer my nephew Gage got a red ant bite, and it never really healed. There has always been a bump from it. Well on Wednesday morning, when they got him up for his last day of school, the area around the bite was red and looked very infected and was very swollen. She called his ped. and he looked at it, put him on an antibiotic and sent him on his way. He went to school for his last day. We I guess last night the infection got worse, started going up his leg, making his leg swollen and his ankle is still swollen. (my sister's fiancee had MRSA last summer) Now they are thinking Gage has it. She called his ped. again, and has to take him in at 10:10am today. In order for them to check for MRSA they have to cut a bit of the infected area out and send it to a lab. That takes 3 days for the results to come back. With Todd having it, she knows what to look for and all the signs are the same. She is EXTREMELY worried and was crying quite a bit this morning!! After I post my prayer request on here, I am calling our Church to add him to it there. So please everyone, say an extra prayer for Gage. Lets pray that it is NOT MRSA and just a minor infection that can be cleared in a few days. Gage is 8 and a half years old. I don't have a current picture of him, or else I'd post 1 on here. Anyways, just keep him and their family in your prayers. My sister is going to either call me or my mom after they leave his Dr. appointment this morning, and let us know what they are thinking. If they think it is MRSA, but have to send the sample out and wait 3 days, he will more then likely be sent right over to the hospital and begin treatments as if it were. What a very scary ordeal for anyone, especially an 8 year old little guy!!

We are thinking about you Gage and praying things will work out, and you'll be back to normal soon!! Love ya buddy!!

Thanks everyone!

Drew and Bryce's ball games this week...

Drew played Monday night and Tuesday night so far this week. He did good, and they won both games finally. We were in a bit of a slump and lost either 4 or 5 in a row. Drew also earned 5 bucks due to a bet I made him. I told him if he got a hit and made it to 1st base, he'd get 5 bucks. IF on that same hit, he made it home, either on stolen bases or by other hits, he'd get 10 bucks. He earned 5 this week. He did make it on base a few other times, but those were due to walks. He was excited. He is definitely doing much better this year!! He has 1 more regular season game tomorrow night at 7:15, then we hear when play-offs are. I think all 4 major's teams are very close in standings also.

Bryce's last t-ball game was Wednesday night. He did great as usual. They received their ball pictures and a medal for playing. He was the catcher again. He seems to really love doing that. He told Drew the other day that he likes it because he always gets the ball. Anyways, here is a picture of him with his medal, and him with his team, coach, coaches daughter and all their medals.

Bryce is 2nd from right, standing

WTG Bryce, awesome t-ball season!!!


The boys new babysitter had her last day of school today and is now on summer vacation as well. She has watched them once, but will start on Tuesday with them on a regular basis. She seemed excited tonight when she called to let me know she was done with school and was wondering when she could come watch them. Hopefully things go well with all of them.

Thats all for now, other then Bryce is VERY excited that his friend Cory from his soccer team is coming over to play and possibly spend the night tomorrow!!! This will be their first time playing at one anothers house!!
