Brett had a wonderful birthday weekend this year. He started it off by taking the family to the batting cages and the speedway where he drove one of the two-seat racers with each of his eligible boys riding co-pilot. This was Bryce first time on a racer and he was a little hesitant at first, but once we got going, he loved the speed and feeling of the air in his face blowing his hair. Garrett was excited that Brett kept it full throttle the whole race, even through the turns. The next day, Brett played in his annual high school alumni baseball game. This year he was joined by two guys with whom he had played varsity ball. He enjoyed getting to play a couple of different positions in the field and accumulating two at-bats. Joy enjoyed a day outside in the sun and is looking forward to some more warm weather and baseball in the near future.
Daddy, we would love to look up for the picture, but that sun is pretty bright and we don't have shades like you.
The Alumni Team roster, from '76 to '10, there was a wide age range.
We all felt like we benefitted from Daddy's birthday, afterall, he got new Star Wars stuff--and we are gonna get to play with it!
We all liked Daddy's baseball birthday cake. Mommy made another good one.
We gave Daddy a little help blowing out his candles...we weren't sure he had the wind in his lungs to blow ALL those out.
Daddy gave us a "someday" thought of when all five of us will be out there driving racers competing against each other to win the race...we're all pondering that in my minds.
