We had a fun filled weekend of Band, Baseball, and Cattleshows!! Carlee left at 7:00 a.m. on Saturday morning for a band performance in Pittsburg, KS. The 7th grade band received a 1 rating, so they did an awesome job. Dad was waiting there at PSU to pick Carlee up to take her to Nevada to show. I did get to watch Carlee show in showmanship and she did really good! She was called back in for the Championship drive, but didn't receive anything. I had to leave with Tanner after showmanship to head down to his baseball games. Tanner's team won both of their games on Saturday, they were on cloud 9. Tanner got to pitch his first game of the season. He did pretty good - he struck out 8 and walked 6. I told Bert at least he did strike out more than walked. The score was 9 to 1, so at least he only let one score. HA!!Payton came and watched Tanner play with mom, and Grandma and Grandpa Edge. I tell you what she made a bunch of new friends and played in the dirt. I am sure that Tara loved bathing her that night. HA! I loved setting with her at the game because she would cheer on everyone that came up to bat. She asked mom one time if she could clap, and mom said sure you can clap as much as you want. She then yelled Yeah and started clapping really loud. It was so cute!! I may have to take her with me to the games to keep my entertainment. I am sure Tara won't let me though. Carlee did well in Nevada she received to trophies for Champion Shorthorn Steer and then her crossbred steer placed 2nd in its class.
Sunday came around and we split again Bert and Carlee went to a cattle show in Lamar, and Tanner & I went to 4 Seasons Complex for a baseball game. Tanner's team won their first game and we got to play in the Championship game. Tanner's team lost their game 9 to 7, but they got 2nd place and received medals. He was excited! Carlee did very well at Lamar show. Carlee got Champion Shorthorn Steer and then she placed 2nd with her crossbred steer. I love it that Carlee has a crossbred, but they are difficult to have because there are so many of them at the shows. If you stay with a specific breed there isn't as many of them. She does good though and she loves the competition. Carlee won showmanship at Lamar and received a chair. She was very excited!
We are off to a track meet today in El Dorado Springs. I am hoping to get some Pogo's Pizza while we are there. Bert's uncle Pogo owns a pizza place up there and it is some of the best pizza I have ever had!
I have placed a couple pictures below of the weekend.

I could not keep up with your schedule :) So glad the weekend went well! And-thanks for putting the pics and video up....I'm hoping to go to one of Tanner's closer ballgames soon.
You would be able to just fine. If you find something that the kids enjoy, you love to see the joy in their faces. I just hate it that are in two different things at the same time. April is really the only time it hits us hard.
This is great info to know.
