What a day.

My little brother had a baseball game after swim team today. We were intending to go straight to the game, but we had to stop at home for some various things that we'd forgotten.

We arrived at The Factory fields a couple minutes late for warm-ups. As soon as we got out of our car a lady asked if we were with the Raleigh Hawks. We are, and she informed us that our game had been moved to the Flaherty fields. Coach arrived and went to find out if we were really at Flaherty. It was determined that we were, so a small caravan headed off Flaherty amongst many cell phone calls informing other team members of the change in location.

Upon arriving at Flaherty we discovered that our game wasn't there either.... it was at the Green Road fields, nearly 30 minutes away. By this time, it was 4:00, and the game was supposed to start at 4:30. A somewhat larger caravan hurried off to Green Road. We somehow managed to pass the caravan and arrive at the game 2nd. The other team greeted us with applause as the first few players finally arrived.

Despite all that confusion, we had enough time to win the game, and finished a tied game from earlier in the season, which we also won.

And I got sunburned.

Ahh, sunburned...what a nice thought. We are still fending off snow.

*is envious* We didn't get anything that even slightly resembled snow.

Oh, my...so typical of something that would happen to the hawks or seahawks!

I think you're going to have to change the way you describe Joel, now that he's bigger than you!!! :D

No way. He'll always be my little brother. Even when he's twice as big as me. :P
