The Family that Plays Together Stays Together

Since our favorite major league baseball team, the Atlanta Braves, has hit a rough spot in the season, we've decided as a family to suit up and see if we can't be of some help. Wouldn't you like for these four players--bringing a combination of dog-like quickness, baby-like determination, and parent-like experience--to be at the start of your lineup? And we have started out with some good coaching too, turning to former Atlanta Brave, as well as fellow Wake Forest Demon Deacon and native North Carolinian, Tommy Gregg, for coaching. Tommy is now the hitting instructor and first base coach for the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, the AA minor league team of the Kansas City Royals, here in Springdale, Arkansas. Tommy's team is currently in first place in the Texas League, so now that we think about it some more, we may just stay home and root for the Naturals.

Caroline's 2nd Annual Birthday Poem

For my second birthday, I went to the zoo.
Mommy and Daddy went along too.
I saw rhinos and meerkats and zebras black and white.
There was also a peacock with a tail big and bright.


















Then I had a church party with lots of my friends.
Presents are nice. I hope this sets trends.
I needed some new clothes, bought on a shopping spree.
But I'll do it over again, when next year I turn three!








Happy 13th Anniversary, Mom & Dad! I Love You, Caroline
