Weekdays:
- Monday - Clint got the Volvo serviced in the morning which meant I drove Maci to her soccer Infiniti training at 830a. After a full day of work for me, I wrapped the day with a Happy Hour with some MN teammates and a few others who were in town from Florida and Iowa for meetings/training.

- Tuesday - Maci had another day of Infiniti training but given work is busy, Clint offered to take and pick her up so I could get into the office at a good time. In the afternoon, Connor had some skills and drills for basketball.
- Wednesday - Maci had another day of Infiniti training and once again, Clint was super dad on the driving. That afternoon she went to see the Lilo & Stitch movie with 2 friends from middle school. After work, I went to Redstone to meet my 2 former coworkers Lisa & Megan for drinks/fondu. Always good having some laughs with them

- Thursday - Connor did some batting cages in the morning to get ready for this weekend's tournament. Maci attended Scarlet's birthday party at cheesecake party and then some afternoon shopping. She bought herself a cute top from American Eagle and a pair of hoop earrings from Gap. Then Connor had some more skills and drills basketball in the late afternoon. That night, I had a going away dinner for my business leader, Chris. He is relocating to Ireland for the next 2 years. It was a lot of good belly laughs! I got home and joined Clint and the other baseball coaches in the basement for some beers and prep for the state weekend.
B-Day Party Fun!
Friday:
- Game 1 was at 10a but I had to go into work for a 1/2 day workshop from 8-12 so I was watching on the game changer app. It was super stressful as Connor came in to close at the bottom of the 6th and it got to 6-7 with a runner on 2nd and 3rd. But Connor struck out the final batter!!!! GO BUDDY!!!
- I wrapped the meeting, talked to my boss quick and then got rolling to Jordan for game 2 at 2p.
- This game was against Prior Lake and we came out SWINGING. We had great hitting and were crushing them in the heat. We ended up winning 19-10.
- After the game we stopped by the worlds largest candy store and then had a dinner/drinks at the Jordan Tap Room before heading home to cool off, rest and get ready for the next day.
Best Fans!
Candy Shop Fun!
Watching Other Teams on Game Changer
Saturday:
- Game 3 of pool play was at 8a so we had to be at the fields by 7a and that meant a 630a departure from home - BOO!
- We were playing Zimmerman who beat us in an earlier tournament and they werent the nicest fans so we were wanting to beat them bad!!!
- Connor had an amazing game! He had 2 doubles which ran in 2 runs each time. He also pitched to close us out in the 5th and 6th innings. We beat them a resounding 11-7 and were pumped! Connor got the game ball which had a cool state stamp on it!
- We were all so pumped from that W that many of us went to Duke's for some brunch before heading home and napping in the AC
- Our whole crew collapsed and arose in time to head out for game 1 of bracket play against a TOUGH Jordan team. It was at 515p start time and the sun was beating down in a 90 degree day, it was icky!
- We were hanging with them going a few runs to a few runs each inning until in the 5th we were exhausted and tired and they opened it up to beat us 5-15. That same team went on to win 3rd after being beat by the champions. We once again were in the top 16 of the state by making it where we did and had some TOUGH pool play! These boys should be so proud!!!
- After the game, we ran to Medina Ballroom for some dinner/drinks and celebration of a great season. We are very fortunate that it isn't fully over for us b/c of the all start tourney the next weekend and at least most of us are coming back together for fall ball!
Pre-Game Fun

Sunday:
- A wonderful quiet weekend day at home!!!!
- Clint started the day by mowing the lawn before it hit 95 degrees.
- I got all the laundry done, did a lot of cleaning, got things prepared for the week, took Connor for his first pedicure which felt so nice on his tired baseball feet and dry legs.
- Maci did her FC Pitz training and then Elliana came over to hang for the day. We are going to have some KFC for dinner and then run her home.
- Connor got the pedicure and some chill time at home but now is at his buddy Chuck's house for slip in slide, pizza and watching the Savannah Banana baseball game on TV.
- We are so fortunate they each have such an awesome friend group that can keep them entertained all summer, even when we are doing things like laundry, groceries etc.
- No 3v3 this week b/c we are in between sessions so also a nice evening at home - yay!
We are hope you are all beating the heat and enjoying summer!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
