Hey Batter Batter....

The girls have started practice games for softball. So far their team is undefeated. Let me warn you. Their team is TOTALLY stacked. It's nuts. There are 3 players that are non returners from last year, and the Brandito girls are 2 of them. Needless to say they've got lots to learn, but so far, they are up to the challenge! Heaven has gotten 2 game hits so far & AB has made contact, but all her game hits have went foul. We've got plenty of time to practice though and the girls really seem to enjoy it. Heaven told us the other night that she has "found her sport". She also advised she no longer needed batting practice since she's gotten a few game hits. We've told her we're going to keep practicing...just in case.

The Brandt girls both agree is the best part of softball is the team cheers. They have already learned  a billion...and enjoy chanting them when any situation calls for a good cheer. Gavin is not a fan of this.



We don't have our uniforms yet....it sure make them easy to spot

Genius.

We still owe Annabelle 2 more AR trips so yesterday I thought I'd escape the "hurricane" madness of Pensacola and cross one off our list. We decided to give Auntie Jenny a visit in her new apartment in Mobile (AU Pharmacy Program...GO JEN!) and let her show us around for a while. We drove around campus for a bit and grabbed lunch at Hero's, which is close to her apartment. It has a very "college" feel to it, and Annabelle felt very "cool" to be out with the ladies. After lunch we headed over to the Explorium to waste away the rest of the afternoon. I love the Explorium, because they change their main exhibits our pretty regularly, so no 2 times are ever the same. Plus, it actually attempts to help the kids LEARN something while they're playing....vs just running around like mad heathens.  Annabelle really liked the kid science area & the "matter" exhibit they have. Especially the soap bubble cloud maker. The poor worker re...

Fish Tale

By
After feeding and watering the dogs for 6 weeks, Annabelle earned herself a fish today! After much debate at Petsmart, she decided on a pink "dragon scaled" beta & a mermaid themed tank. She has named him Poseidon (we're a bit into Percy Jackson right now...for better or worse) though I personally pushed for King Tritian (I mean HELLO it's a mermaid tank!!). She could not wait to get home and get it all set up. Because we (I) underestimated how big the tank we selected is, we set it up in the girls room...as there is no where else to put it. He has lots, and lots of pink decorations...so hopefully he's not too much of a manly man fish.

Carolers

By
The girls Brownie troop went Christmas Caroling this weekend at University Pines Retirement Community. They were absolutely precious. Words cannot express the cuteness overload. Several local troops were there and they sang for about half an hour. The girls have been practicing their songs for weeks, and they did spectacularly. The adorable retiree's gave them rave reviews and they were stopped by several people asking them to come back next year.  Could they be any cuter? When we got home, we thought it only seemed fair to get the dogs in the spirit too..... Kingsley the Great Bayleigh the Princess
