Tryouts and Basketball

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Evan had tryouts this morning for spring baseball.  I woke him up at 7:30 and got everything ready.  After tryouts he had basketball so I was getting all the baseball gear ready as well as his basketball stuff.  We left a bit after 8 for his 8:30 tryouts.

In Evan's group, there were several kids that Evan knew. He seemed to be happy amongst friends.  His tee ball coach from this first season was there as well and was very excited to see Evan.  He was cheering Evan on quite vocally, even though he was one of the coaches doing the drafting.  Evan did ok.  I'm not sure he's feeling 100%.  He seemed to be a bit more lethargic than usual.  He was the first kid to catch a pop fly which was good.  When was finished, he saw another boy from his team in the fall. They had a catch for a while before we left.

As we were leaving we bumped into a father and son who were at tryouts but the boy was on Evan's basketball team.  They were on their way to basketball though we had some time to kill. I told them we were going to get donuts and they joined us.  We had a good time talking.

Evan's team got killed in basketball.  It seemed the coaches of the other team set up the rotations to just pound Evan's team.  I don't think Evan had much fun.

After that I took the boys to Toys R Us to pick out Legos.  They had gift certificates from Hanukkah and I promised Noah he could get something after his fall the other day.  They each got something. Then we stopped at Smoothie King as I had promised them on Wednesday we'd get smoothies after Evan's basketball game.

We just stayed at home in the afternoon.

For dinner we drove to TGI Fridays on Lady Bird Lake.  We ate outside overlooking the lake. It was nice.

The boys are in bed now.

Until next time...
