More Softball

A couple nights ago, Renee and I both had softball games.  Renee’s team won their game 15-3 (I think).  I had to wait out Renee’s game at 5:45 so I could give Ian to her and get to my game at 7:15.  I made it on time, but it was kind of frustrating because in the 5th [...]

Happy 9 Months to Ian

Ian turned 9 months old today!  He is now rolling over from both sides and getting more mobile.  He can pretty much get wherever he wants by rolling, which means Collin needs to keep his toys up off the floor if he doesn’t want baby drool all over them.  Unfortunately, Ian celebrated by catching a [...]

A New Minivan

We spent about $22,000 today on a new minivan and a new sectional for our family room. We had a bunch of fabric samples hanging on the back of our couch all weekend so we could figure out which one looked the best in our light. We finally agreed on one and Renee called to [...]

SECOND PLACE!!!

Collin’s team won second place in the tournament today!  They won their first game this morning 11-9.  We had to hold the other team in the bottom of the 5th inning, and one of our girls made a great catch in left field on a very well hit ball to preserve the win.  Then, we [...]

Tournament Results

I mentioned in the last post that Collin’s baseball team had their tournament games coming up.  Well, they’re still playing!  We won the first game by forfeit (the other team only could get 7 players there), but we played a practice game anyway and we played well, so we might have won that game anyway.  [...]

Tournament Game

Collin’s baseball team has their first tournament game today.  It’s been raining here for the past 2 days (his last game on Tue got rained out), but it looks like we’ll get this one in today.  It’ll be hot and humid, though.  I hope they do well, but win or lose we’ve had a great [...]

Tennis Lessons

Collin started taking tennis lessons yesterday.  They’re being offered by the Marion Parks & Recreation Dept.  He had fun his first day, especially since his friends Nicholas and Zack were there.  They practiced forehand ground strokes, and Collin hit the ball very well, especially for a kid that had never picked up a tennis racket [...]

New Stuff and a Birthday Party

This weekend we went shopping for 2 of the 3 major purchases we intend to make this summer: a sectional with a hide-a-bed for the family room and a new minivan.  I think we found the sectional and minivan we want, but it’s still going to take a while to finalize everything.  We’re going to [...]

Three Wins for the Lehrians!

Yesterday, I played softball for the first time since I broke my hand on May 20.  It was a doubleheader, and I played second base the first game & right field the next.  It felt good to be back out there, and the hand is none the worse for the wear, too.  My muscles are [...]

Random Thoughts

This post will probably really epitomize the title of this blog.  I’m sitting on the couch with my new work laptop (a Dell Latitude D820 with lots of power) watching the Braves play the Reds and pretty much being bored.
Collin had another baseball game today, and they played pretty well again.  They played a team [...]
