Today is rather a milestone in our family ~~~

Tongue

Our only grandson (8) is having his first official team baseball game @ 5:30 this evening .

I have been so happy (love baseball) that he even showed an interest and looked forward to today with excitement and anticipation.

Now that it s truly here, I am a nervous wreck ""Grammie"" ~~~Sick

There is a chicken bar-b-q prior to the game but well take ours home and eat later as I know we won t be able to get him to eat anything much before the game.

Once that uniform is on and he puts that ball cap on, he is all business !!! Tongue

The biggest problem is going to be the HEAT Sick !!! It is not even 2 PM and 86*, no breeze, bright sun and NO SHADE TREES at the ball diamond. Yuck !!!

Anyway, the cooler is pretty much packed (just gotta add ice) and the camera is loaded (hope I don t forget it) ~~~

Going to call daughter in a bit and see if she s having butterflies also ... LOL !!!

I am sure the teacher is having a time keeping the boys involved tonight serious enough to study this afternoon .Whistling

I ll let you all know how things went tomorrow as will probably be too wiped out to come online when we get home tonight ...LOL !!!

Marilyn

P.S. Grandsons' name is Andon ; he ll be catching and playing second base. Wink

I hope you guys win, your grandson plays well, and that they all have a good time playing.

Take an umbrella for shade, maybe a personal fan for a hot breeze. And most important, stay hydrated (and close to a bathroomGrin).

Marilyn, you crack me up Smile

I can sure relate even though Savannah isn't old enough....how fun for all of you. Your nerves will settle and you'll have a blast and I'm sure your daughter is nervous too, it's different though being a grammy, at least I think so Smile

C'mon Andon....let's go Andon, lets go!!!!! lol

Steve bought Savannah her first bike, she had to have it when she seen it in the store.... a pink princess bike. Please bampy she says and it's all hers lol

We got the helmet, the knee pads and off she went and mammy now has herself some more gray hair that I just paid to get rid of. She told Steve he was the best bampy ever and her bike was perfect just like him.....awwwww. He's in trouble when her hobbies start getting more expensive lol

Marily, have a ball and give him a good luck hug from me Smile

Connie,

I can be very level-headed in almost any situation and went thru YEARS of both daughters playing sports (I was much younger then ... LOL !!! ) It was a ball and I didn t worry one bit but boy, with a grandchild, it sure changes.

Andon also has to wear his ""brain bucket"" (as he calls it) with the pads etc. for his bike, scooter and skate board . So far he doesn t mind and told me on Sat. specifically that his batting helmet is ""not nearly as safe as his ""brain bucket"" ... LOL !!!

Good for Savannah ~~~ it sounds as if she has her ""bampy"" pretty well wrapped around her precious little finger. Wink

OK Grammie, take a few deep breaths and relax. OH YEAH!! Don't forget the sun screen, a snack, a handheld battery operated fan( got mine at the dollar store), lotsa ice water, your coolest looking hat for shade. I would put the camera in my purse so I don't forget it and then put my purse in the car, along with keys. OH!! this is so exciting, his first game and he's playing second base and Catching. W00t.

Oh yeah thats right I'm trying to help you be calm, sorry for the outburst of excitement and rambling. OK Auntie/Grammie lets try this afain; Nice deep breath and relax, nice deep breath it's going to be a great night and you're going to have lots of fun. One more deep breath Andon is going to be a star and have the most fun ever.
