Host Family Appreciation Night

So here we are, it's Host Family Appreciation Night. Sounds like a good thing, well, it is, but it also means it's nearly the end of the season. That also means the boys are leaving soon and if you know me, you know that makes me sad. Obviously we wouldn't keep them if we didn't love it and so the end of the season is hard because I no longer have baseball nor an extra guy around the house and then school starts. But good news for this year is that school is starting late!!! This morning we went to the gym then Eriq and I headed down to DeSoto to meet Jenny (Dan's girlfriend) and see Dan when they flew into town. I had a nice swim despite the sun and rain together. We had a nice visit with the family and also since Eriq had to cancel his first pitch for tonight, I got a call asking if I would do it. Well, there should be, but there are not any baseballs or anything like a baseball at my parents house so Dan tried to teach me how to pitch with rocks and finally the "lips" from one of those tree faces (don't ask). Then we headed back north to the game, it rained on us the whole time. We checked the field and everything was still a go, so we headed home, got our stuff together and headed to the game. Eric gave us a rose and thank you note and we got our picture taken after standing in the drizzle for a bit. Unfortunately we were playing the Roughnecks and in typical fashion they got to us early and often for another loss to them. Take away the losses to them and we have only about 1 loss per team for ALL the other teams in the league. That's the last time we will play them, in regular season anyway...
