Padawan Jedi

Isaac misses his Padawan Jedi. As Isaac is becoming a Jedi Knight, he misses his 2 little Padawans: Natalie and Caleb, and he looks forward to a new girl cousin Padawan to train, little girl nathanmarenrecords.

28-19

Milwaukee has started off this season very hot. As my ole friends from Olney, Illinois would attest to, the Cardinals and Cubs have stunk it up. The Brew Crew have used this opportunity to jump out to a huge lead. And today, they called up their best positional player from the minors. Mr. Ryan Braun. We are very excited about this call up in Brewer land. He should solidify their lineup, giving them a potent lineup. (We won't discuss his defense, but just to say he's getting better)

We are cautiously optimistic about the Brewers. Just enjoy the ride:

Hey New York, you gotta go through us this October!

Memorial Day- Monday

In Honor of the many men and women who have served our country with bravery, courage, and strength, preserving our freedom and desiring others in this world to have freedom and democracy as well, God Bless You.

I thank God for the freedoms that we do have, for the soldiers who sacrificed for us today. May we never take this for granted.

TWINS

Isaac and Natalie, twins, separated at birth.

Brewers 24-10

Brewers in the World Series? Maybe. At 24-10, best record in the big leagues, the Brewers are off to their best start in years, and their biggest division lead in 25 years. I am very excited and Isaac and I have been following the Brewers through www.mlb.com/gameday... it's not really watching the game, but it is free!! I paid for the baseball package 3 times (1 on directv, and 2 on MLB) and they were terrible. So this year, I thought I wouldn't do it and maybe they will win...

Their pitching staff is the best in the bigs. They have 5 (6?) good-solid starters, their bullpen is amazing, and they are a young team. They have great power numbers, with Weeks, Hardy, Fielder, Estrada, Jenkins leading the way. They still have not hit their stride yet. Bill Hall is not hitting well, but they are winning. That is what matters. Solid pitching and clutch hitting will win ball games.

Grandpa and Grandma visited

My grandparents visited me last week. It was great to see them again. Here I am sporting a local team, the NJ Nets. Grandpa wants me to be a Yankee fan. We had a good time together. Grandpa did the dedication. Grandma held me and rocked me to sleep everyday for naptime and nighttime. Now daddy just puts me down and says "go to sleep."

I miss my grandpa "hey little feller"

Opening Day

BREWERS 7 DODGERS 1

first game of the year. you can read all about it at www.milwaukeebrewers.com it was an incredible game from start to finish. Ben Sheets is an amazing pitcher, the Brewers have great depth and talent. My sister Gretchen says they are turning the corner and this is their year.

I concur.

Isaac's Dedication

We had a baby dedication for Isaac. Infant baptism is not found in Scripture. We do see Hannah committing Samuel to the Lord, and Jesus being dedicated to the Lord when they were young. We pray that Isaac will serve the Lord when he is old enough to know the difference between right and wrong.

And then of course, there is a family dinner after.
