I don't know if I've made this clear enough... I love Texas Rangers Baseball!
I'm not totally sure when this love began, but it seems to grow each year. I love Josh, Nelly, Ian, Elvis, Mike Napoli, CJ, Michael Young and my favorite new addition this year, Adrian Beltre! I also love watching the weird wind up of Darren O'Day. This team ROCKS! The idea of them trading any players makes me wanna cry.
I think because of John's love of baseball and my love for him, it's just been a natural progression to get me to the point I'm at now. Every date for us started with a baseball game. I LOVED that John was a catcher because he was so close and because every pitch involved him. (and secretly because it gave me such a good view of his adorable hiney ;) ) He was GOOD. I don't think I'm biased either. He really was good! From the Hawks to American Legion, it was several years of sitting in the sun and eating sunflower seeds, with Ronny, Terry, Grandma and Grandaddy, Tera and Hillary. I wish I could go back to one of those games. It was such a precious time in my life. I loved it! And BTW, anyone who thinks Ron Humphrey is always pretty quiet, I dare you to sit through a ballgame with him. ;)
I know part of the reason God gave me all these boys was because He knew I needed to remain close to the baseball field. ;) And we have... We had 3 different teams to follow this season and it was at least one game every night of the week... and most nights we had multiple games. It was hectic but GREAT!
Anyway, John and I are going to the game tonight for his birthday. We got really good seats too! I'm so excited about a weekend away with him and about watching my Rangers!
P.S. Dear God, Please cool it down before we get there. That would make it even more perfect!... Amen
