Take Me Out to the Ballgame

No peanuts or CrackerJack, but we had a great time watching Aaron's cousin Jeffrey play while visiting with Uncle Ed and Aunt Carol. Jeffrey is finishing up his junior year at Jackson Academy, and the team traveled up to Columbus to play Heritage Academy. We've really had fun over the past few years watching him play basketball and baseball in our area.
We enjoyed cheering him on at third base and batting. It was a cool Spring evening, and Will was mezmerized by the action... at least for the first 30 minutes. Then, he wanted to wander around and play with the gravel rocks.
Aaron and Uncle Ed enjoyed the game of course, but they also enjoyed talking about the weather... not as small talk, but as fellow weathermen. Aaron majored in meteorology at the Academy and Uncle Ed is the chief meteorologist for the state of Mississippi. And with the crazy storms we've had lately, they had a lot to discuss!Fun evening... and by the time we left to get Will in bed, Jeffrey's team was well on the way to victory!

Oh good, they won. Looks like a fun spring day in MS! I was looking at pictures from a crawfish boil the other day and started missing Mississippi like crazy.

Oh and tonight, all I wanted was to go to Peppers. :(
