I am currently writing this while I stare out into the country, (I'm basically Laura Ingalls Wilder) and boy its even gloomy out here too. Such a shame. The good news? It should be a couple of nice, relaxing and enjoyable days (for the most part, ha!) and I have the rest of the weeks blog posts planned out! That is a pretty big deal. I don't know if I've already conveyed this thought, but most of the time when I sit down to write a post is coincidentally the same time I decide what I'm going to write about for the day...so yay! I was talking to Sambo the other day and asking him about what Spring Break memories he had and the only one he could come up with was this trip that I'm about to break down for ya'll this week!
My junior year of high school (After my mom was done with cancer for the first time I believe) my mom decided to celebrate her renewed energy and designed this week long trip for us to on (without poor daddyo sorry!). This was a new concept for the two of us since before we had only ever gone on day trips. So I won't talk about it too much here in the intro, but for the rest of the week I'll give you a break down from day to day about the best Spring Break Sam and I ever had.
Memory #42
The first part of the trip was to watch a baseball game, but not just any baseball game. Obviously the first part of our spring break spectacular had to be a visit to College Station, TX to watch our fightin' Texas Aggies! I actually have no recollection of whether we won or not or even who we played but I remember being silly and goofy and having the time of our lives. Whenever my mom and I went to a baseball game, she always got tickets on the third base line because for one that was the Aggie side and two you get a nice view of the baseball players...I'm not even embarrassed to say that. I will, however, exclude what we remarked on about the players since I know who my audience is (Hello grandparents and father unit) but lets just say we had a code word for it and it was our favorite part about baseball games. (It went something like, "The weather sure is nice."- We're classy like that)
Sam's favorite part, of course, was going to catch foul balls and being embarrassed by us (He is a cutie pie) The thing he got most embarrassed by was when my mom and I decided to get really involved in the 7th inning stretch. To show you why he was embarrassed I've included a picture my mom took of me participating in our way of the 7th inning stretch-
I don't know why he was so embarrassed of us...I tell ya my mom and I were goofs. Anyways after a night of being silly, of catching foul balls, and oogling the players, remarking about the 'weather' we went and stayed at a hotel and went straight away to sleep to prepare for the next day.
TO BE CONTINUED
Love Always,
Erin
