My Mom and Dad gave us a free night at The Hampton Inn in Asheville for Easter. It was so fun. We swam in the indoor pool for hours and Luke and Jack Especially loved the hottub. Thanks, Mom and Dad!

Last night was my debut as head coach for the Polk County Bulldogs. What an awesome night. Every kid on the team got a hit, but we lost 6 to 4. Our next game is tomorrow night at Wrigley Field, I mean Harmon Field, in Tryon. Here are a few photos [...]
