Brian missed playing basketball in the 7th grade because of the broken leg.  He decided to give it a try this year.  He did a really good job in his first game, especially given the fact he only had a week of practice before the game.   Share

Troy Elementary School has a Fit-N-Fun Run every Friday before Spring Break.  This year will be our last Fit-N-Fun Run at Troy Elementary School.  Megan is the 5th grade and will move on to sixth which does not have such an event.  It is a mixed blessing.  We are glad to be done but we [...]

I am writing this post in May and back dating the publishing to December to put it in the correct timeline. It has taken me months to be able to sit down to write this post.  It is also the reason I have not posted much over the past few months. On November 4th, 2010, [...]

Megan played her last game with Total Chaos last night.  It was against a 3rd Bruceville-Eddy team.  I have concluded I don’t understand this league at all.  At first I thought we played each team twice, but that has not been the case.  I guess the whole thing could best be described as total chaos; [...]

Total Chaos played a make up game last night against a second McGregor team. The game started about 30 minutes late. Someone forgot to schedule an official or the scheduled official did not show, not sure which was the case, but it delayed the start of the game. The girls went back and forth for [...]

It felt a little like Déjà vu. We played the Diamond Divas again last night after playing them Monday night. At game time it was cloudy and cool. It looked like we might get rained out. The girls came out playing better than they had all season. They looked alive for the first time in [...]

Monday night’s game was HOT.  You could tell it really took its toll on the girls.  They were moving very slowly on both sides of the ball.  They may not have one, but they did really well against what we were told was a really good team. You can see all the pics at http://www.bemm.net/softball/TotalChaosvsDiamondDivasGame8/ /* [...]

Game 7 was against a Troy team called Sha-Bang.  The girls started off strong.  A grand slam in the third took the wind out of the girls sails and they never recovered.  I fear they are loosing their motivation to play.  There are still four games left to play and I hope that it is not the [...]

The girls did well against Eddy, but still game out a few runs short of victory.  I will say this.  There was a girl on the Eddy team that I believe many of us wished would just shut-up. She was very obnoxious.  Her mom is one of the coaches.  I can see were she gets it. [...]

Sunday we drove down to Bryan/College Station to drop Brian off at the Texas A&M University Summer Football Camp for sixth, seventh, and eighth graders. He was very excited. The enrollment was very well organized. It was really cool to get to see the Texas A&M Football locker room. He sent a text just around [...]
