Red, White & Green

These would be adorable for my cupcake liner garland.  I would also get them in green and add white to the mix.

Travel Baseball: What to pack in your cooler...tips & ideas

We live in Florida where Travel Baseball season never ends.  Our team usually takes a hiatus during Christmas break and starts back up again in the middle of January. I thought it would be helpful to post the essentials for travel baseball families and what to pack in your cooler for double headers, local tournaments and out of town tournaments. First, be prepared to pay the gate fee.  Usually it's $5 per person for adults and most of the time kids get in free.  Be prepared to pay a higher gate fee for bigger tournaments, especially tournaments held at Disney.  Usually you can find the gate fee under the tournament information web page.  Let's talk about coolers & food ...most parks that you play in will have a concession stand.  Hotdogs and burgers from the concession stand get old QUICK.  And by quick, I mean after the first bite.  Buying lunch (and sometimes dinner) at the concession stand can drain your wallet faster than a kid with ...

What to pack for a Travel Baseball Game

Before Cole started playing travel baseball, I was a rec baseball mom.  I had down to a science what I needed to take to the fields for that one game.  When he started playing travel baseball, I had to pack beyond the 1 game played at a local park.  It took me a few tournament weekends to get my baseball bag just right.

Biggest Loser

The beginning of a new year for me always begins with the resolution to lose weight...On December 31 of each year, I always think back at how much weight I didn't lose.  It's depressing...Over the past 3 years I have gained a ton of weight.  It started during Cole's T-ball All-Stars.  Practice 3 times a week, a tournament every week and 1/2 for almost 2 months.  Fast food, beer, staying up late...it was like I was spinning around on the tea cups, grabbing whatever I could to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I am at the heaviest I have EVER been.  I weigh more now than I did when I was pregnant.  My clothes, especially pants, haven't fit in a couple of years now.  The guilt and shame that goes along with that is heavy.  I look in the mirror and still see the same person from 3 years ago, but when I look at pictures I barely recognize myself.  I have become a bloated version of me. So on Sunday I took a huge risk and joined a group of...
