ASI Sluggers

We played our 3rd game on Wednesday, May 21. We won the first due to a forfeit, we won the second (while Ken and I were out of town!), we won the third with some skill and a little luck! Here's the recap (written by our team captain):

We were the home team so we have last bat. There was no time left and we were tied 7-7. This meant that we had to go into extra innings... The first extra inning no one scored and it was still 7-7. Very stressful!! The second extra inning the other team scored two runs making it 7-9 and we finally got our third out and it was our turn to bat. Since this is the second extra inning it is now one pitch, meaning you only get one pitch - foul or strike and you’re out, ball and you get on base, hit and you chance it… Dennis started off the inning with a hit and got on base. Krista also hit and got on first. Anna was pitched a strike and Jaime hit a foul ball. Two outs and we still hadn’t scored... Ken was up to bat and he was pitched a ball where he advanced to 2nd and got an RBI bringing Dennis home. The score is now 8-9 with runners on 2nd & 3rd … Leslie’s turn…she hits and makes it to first. Still have two outs, score is 8-9 and the bases are loaded!! Next in line to hit is Rocky. He gets a ball and is walked to 2nd base bringing home Krista and Ken for the winning runs!! We win 10-9!!!

We played a great game holding them to 0 for most of the game and had some great plays and hits! Our record is 3-0, still undefeated!! Great job ASI Sluggers!!

Bastrop welcomes Laura & Daniel!

Las Vegas!

We just got back from Las Vegas! Ken gave a speech at another quality conference, so I joined him for a long weekend. We also met up with my mom and Nacho. We had a great time! I absolutely loved getting to spend Mother's Day with my mom!! (And she sure enjoyed the all-you-can-eat crab legs!). We saw The Phantom of the Opera play and walked all over the Strip and Fremont Street. Mom and I enjoyed shopping (once we found the normal-priced shops!) We met up with my cousin, Joey, who's been going to college in Las Vegas and is close to graduation!

When we returned to Texas, we were informed that niece #3 was born on Wednesday, May 14, 2008!! Little Ansley Nicole was born to my brother Eric and his wife Jodi. Congratulations!!! We'll have pictures up as soon as we get some! (well, Eric sent one to my phone, but I can't seem to transfer it to my computer).

We head to Katy today to attend a birthday party for our niece, Alyssa, who turns 3 on May 24th.

Life is so busy! We're about done with traveling for the year, but you never do know....
