Regional Games- Trinity Catholic

We had 2 games on Saturday against Trinity Catholic..the first game we didnt play so good..we had a few errors and we just didnt play how we normally do..we lost 10-3..The second game we finally played some baseball..our pitcher Bobby was easily the mvp..he pitched the whole game and then hit a homerun in the 7th inning to put us ahead..we won 9-7. That made us go into a third game on Saturday. By: Chase

First of all our fans got banned to only one side of the park because Friday they were so loud!! Saturday was a good game..it was close the whole time..in the 5th inning they hit 2 homeruns that put them up by 3..we made a rally in the bottom of the 7th but the umpires had a few missed calls..but can't win em all..good season though! By: Chase

Chase~ John and I are so proud of you! You are an amazing athlete! Keep your head up and keep your eye on the ball and your goals! We love you-POO!!! JOC & JAC

Mother's Day

My mother's day was so wonderful!!! I got some wonderful gift cards to the Spa from my family along with some very sweet cards. We meet my brother and parents at the Oasis in St. Augustine for breakfast and then headed to the beach. I really missed Caitlin and Tyler but they were with their mom on her day. As you can see, we found lots of sharks teeth. John and I love doing that. Chase left me to go and see his girlfriend! I guess that happens as children grow up! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO blessed. There is nothing else I can imagine doing than being a mother. I started out young and we have had MANY GREAT times and some bad. MY LIFE IS CHASE!!! HE IS MY WORLD!!! I am so thankful for Caitlin and Tyler and all they bring to my life. I couldn't ask for best children to add to my family!! John, I love you so and thank you for taking care of me and our family!!

Mindy's Birthday at the Bay

These are some of the most amazing women you will ever meet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have been friends for many years now and just grow closer and closer. We have started meeting to celebrate each of our birthdays. It has been so much fun. It has turned out to be every other month. So it really works out great. We called ourselves the Bahama Mamas, since we took our teenagers to the Bahamas for Spring Break last year( SOOOO MUCH FUN) However, Nancy has came up with a new name----The Birthday Babes!!! She is a nut and I love her so! I am very lucky to have such wonderful friends that are only a call away! We had fun that afternoon!! Happy Birthday, Mindy!

G's Birthday

We surprised my mom with a picnic at the river front in Palatka. I made homemade Lasagna and salad. It was very yummy. It was a perfect night too. There was just enough breeze to keep the flies away. It was just a nice way to celebrate my mom and show her that we love her and that we are so thankful for her!

Regional Games

Keystone got to play at home against PK Young in the first game of Regional play. They played a great game and won. They had to play Williston on Friday to move to the Sub-Regional game.

Here are a few of Chase's biggest fans! We love them and are so thankful that they spent time and money to support him! We love you guys!

All I can say about this Williston game is.........................................OH MY GOODNESS!!! This game was so intense and so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was probably one of the most exciting games I have EVER watched------Really!!! It was crazy! You know it is nuts when Caitlin is rocking back and forth with her hands over her mouth. It was very exciting and emotional! There were so many ups and downs! Our boys made some amazing plays to WIN THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so proud of all of them and how they played. They really earned that win! My aunt and uncle came to the game from down south. It was very nice of them to make the drive to come and support Chase. They will play in Ocala on Friday, May 15th at 4:30 and 7. Keep your fingers crossed!

LOOK AT THAT SNAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Flagler Beach

We took the kids to Flagler Beach last Sunday. We had lunch at Finn's resturant overlooking the water. We really had a great day at the beach. Caitlin and I found hundreds of bright, colorful periwinkles. We decided to make a frame with all of the shells we found!
