Rise and Shine

School is out and it is officially summer break!

 

Baseball is in "full swing"

 

with both Riley and Isaac playing on traveling tournament teams.

Riley in action- love that my boys love to catch since that was the position that I played.

 

Pretty much every day of the week is baseball for us-

 

practices and league games during the week for Riley and Isaac.

 

Tournaments most weekends.

 

Aidan will also be joining in the mix with his first year of t-ball.

 

We are going to eat, sleep, and breathe baseball this summer!

 

But I wouldn't want it any other way!

 

I love the craziness that summer brings

 

because I love that my boys are active

 

and love playing baseball as much as they do.

 

They are so passionate about baseball

 

and it is so much fun to see the progress each year-

 

 heck, with each game!

 

It is already clear

 

that all of the craziness

 

 is going to make it even more difficult

 

 to get our workouts in.

 

Running = sanity for me

 

so we needed to figure out a solution to this problem.

 

I am not a morning person

 

but we decided that the only way

 

to ensure that we got our workouts in

 

was to "Rise and Shine"

 

and get it done before the craziness started for the day!

 

 

Today was DAY 1

 

and I survived...

 

and may have actually liked it a little.

 

There wasn't as much talking between the two of us

 

but it was cooler (a little refreshing actually),

 

the birds were singing

 

and it was wonderful to run on fresh legs!

 

Now it is done and out of the way

 

and I have been very productive already this morning...

 

now to keep up the momentum for the rest of the day.
