Well, let me catch you up on what has been happening in our day to day lives. :)
We are moving back to Hubbard, hopefully on the 7th of June. In the meantime, softball has started for Amber (back in Hubbard) so we have committed to driving her back for at least one practice per week so that she doesn't miss everything. They have been practicing the whole month of May, so she would have been behind, and it was a good way for her to merge back into her friend group. Amber is very excited, because she might be able to pitch a little this year. She would like to be a pitcher and has been practicing every night. There are two older girls that are pitchers right now, but their coach said that Amber could practice with them because next year they will need another pitcher and she would already know what she is doing. So she might not pitch during the games, but she is definitely going to learn how to do it this year. Before practice started we had to track down a glove and some cleats. Nowadays you can't have metal cleats, and all our other cleats are too small. Her glove was also too small for her hand. So the search began. If you didn't know, Amber is one of those odd left-handed people, for whom the world is set against. We checked four stores and then decided that we would drive over to Scheels to find a left-handed glove(Which actually is on her right hand). They had 2 or 3 and we were able to get one for under a small fortune. :) Honestly, I think that I am just out of touch with pricing. Because in my mind, you should be able to get a glove for around $20-30. Evidently, I am living in the Dark Ages. We had a really good time shopping, just Amber and I, somewhat of a mother/daughter moment. (Wipe away your tears at this point)
We are continually moving things over to Hubbard. Since we are taking Amber over for a practice I usually load up the van and haul over boxes of stuff. Hopefully this will help the final move be quicker and a lot easier since we won't have that much little stuff to move.
At this point, I have to go out and mow the grass. Time to take the allergy meds. I will be a bit congested upon my return. :)

Good job blogging. Ah, the mowing and the pollen jumping around looking for a chance to invade your sinuses-thank God for allergy meds.
Wow, I love baseball and softball!! I hope she gets a chance to pitch. Keep Frank updated for when you need help.
Smiles,
Jennifer
You and your brother both on the congestion thing!
