January 2012

New Year's Day
It's that time again.. time for BASEBALL! Trevor had tryouts this weekend. This is the first sport he has played since we moved here. It was a gorgeous day...74 degrees...beautiful facilities...and baseball in the air. The tryouts were very organized and Trevor did great. I love that he is a confident player. He stepped right out there like the Spring season had just ended. At the end he even got on the mound to pitch like it was nothin'!

Darren was checking out the rest of this amazing complex, which consisted of many baseball fields, 2 playgrounds, and lots of fields for soccer and lacrosse etc.

The first week of January, Trevor attended a Baseball Camp at Roger Dean Stadium.  This is where the Miami Marlins and the St. Louis Cardinals have Spring Training. His camp was held on the practice field for the Cardinals...and I must admit that I was jealous of my 8 year old. The field was perfection. The dirt was lovely, no rocks, no bumps...and the outfield grass was as sooooo smooth.  Heavenly! Trevor had a good time and learned a lot. Again, it was so well organized. There we no boys wrestling and being goofballs...they were there to play...that was made clear on Day 1. I liked that:)

Here are just some more pictures from our latest adventures. Needless to say, We love Florida.
