Well, the first week of school is behind us, yay!!  So far things are going well.  Mason is his normal serious self and Madison, so far, is much happier this year than last!  Mason got Mrs. Morrow for his 1^st Grade teacher and Madison got Mrs. Timberlake for her 4^th Grade teacher. 

Another update is that those awesome, amazing Pumas are the 2010 8U Coach Pitch CHAMPIONS!!!  They went the whole season undefeated!!!! Even through the state tournament!!!  It was such an unbelievable season!!!

One more thing…those awesome, amazing Pumas are now playing 10U Kid Pitch softball for the fall season.  They are 2 games into the season and lost both games.  It’s a whole new ball game now!  They are learning how to hit against a pitcher that throws it about 35-40 mph.  They are learning how to bunt.  They aren’t playing bad, their defense is still there, they just have to learn some new things.  Luckily, this fall season is really just a “practice” season.  When spring comes they will all be on different teams because most of them will be moving up to 10U and they will have to go back into the draft.  Matt (their coach) thought that this fall season would be a good jump start for the girls even though they won’t be together next season.  He’s all about taking care of the girls and teaching them as much as he can before they move on.  It’s really bittersweet.  I know all the girls will miss him and his dad and all the other coaches!!
