This was a special trip for me. I got to spend 4 days alone with Zach. Normally, Ty takes him to most of the out of state tournaments. I am often the one left home to take care of the other kids and home. It was such a great experience to get him all to myself. He was playing in Peoria AZ at the baseball complex.
He just turned 15 years old and he is now a young man. He hurt his arm throwing. He is a catcher and has not been able to PLAY for 8 weeks now. He is only batting at this point. I have seen him be nothing but positive in his attitude. He still goes and supports his team and has never complained. HE has taught me a huge lesson on being positive. I wish you could all met him. I tell him God sent me him to know someone who is so much like HIM. Crazy but true... I am inspired to be better because of him. He keeps me on my toes in a good way.
We ate out every meal... oh, not good... now I'm on a big cleanse. Nothing like authentic Mexican food. I love AZ and they have too many good places to eat at. Hence... I gained weight.
One afternoon, we were done with the games early. We decided to take the boys to the Arizona State Fair. I can't remember the last time I had been to a fair. The boys LOVED it!
The highlight was Zach winning "HONEY BADGER." He was excited. It only cost $20.00 LOL. Those games are impossible to win. Do you think they are money traps? ha-
I have to say that the BEST thing ever was the many heart to heart conversations that we shared. I really focused on just being with Zach and creating memories he will never forget.
Halloween photos are tomorrow... have a great day!!!!!
