Hey Everybody! This one's going to be a short one because I got to head out to my aunt's house here pretty soon. But I just missed you all so much, so I thought I'd make good use of my time. How is everyone? I hope good... So, let's see.
Well, Mother's Day was cool. Pretty chill, you know? My brothers and I all watched this REALLY cheesy movie together and it was so bad it was unintentionally hilarious. That was fun. Then we gave her our little gifts. My little brother's gift was the best: "Well, it used to be a sunflower plant, but someone cut it in half so I just figured I'd give you what was left..."
My dad just got back from FL recently and I'm SO glad he's home. Having someone around you all the time, you don't really realize how much you're going to miss them when they're gone. I sure missed him.
My little brother is playing baseball right now. I'm SO proud of him! At one of his practices, he was just messing around and threw the ball towards the home plate. One of the coaches saw and asked him to do that again. He [my little brother] didn't know why the coach wanted him to, but he did it. After about 20 times, the coaches [the rest had come over to watch] told him he was a great pitcher and that he threw pretty much all the balls in the strike zone without even knowing. They asked him to pitch at the game and the newspaper recorded that he "pitched with great command and composure". It's kind of funny for me because I was always the catcher, and now my little brother is the pitcher. Everybody knows that the catcher and pitcher always have to be on exactly the same page in order to make a good team!
On Mondays, my brother and I go to the local skate rink and roller blade for 2 ½ hours. We've been doing this for a few months now, and through the friends we've made I found out that there is a recreational hockey team there. I also found out that girls [there's only about four in the league] are allowed to play in the boys' league since they don't have a girls' one yet. I've been begging my mom to let me do it, and she finally let me! I'm going to get to play HOCKEY!!! YAY!!! Erika, I'm totally going to make a rollerblading trick called the "Tofu" just for you. =]
So yeah, that's pretty much what's been going on lately. I have to hurry up and wrap this up, so bye! Drop me a message sometime!!!
