Tonight marked the beginning of the revitalized, revamped and relaxed Barons baseball team - fondly referred to as Barons 2.0. The dads and moms were smiling, the boys were relaxed and ready to run some drills and Jonathon Shier made his entrance onto the team. We love Jonathon and he did himself proud tonight. Coach Bonnie said he was a "heck of ball player" and Coach Bonnie is usually pretty quiet...so that's high praise! Keaton, as always, had fun and got to go spend the night at the Shiers. Patrick had picked the boys up to go bowling with our kids this morning and they must have just not gotten quite enough of each other! Peyton and Nikki tried to negotiate a sleepover at our house, but Lori (Nikki's mom) needed more notice - especially since Nikki has gymnastics at 8:00am! We tried Gracie too, but it just wasn't meant to be. The girls did get to put the sprinkler under the trampoline and jump and be silly for a bit...it's Peyton's favorite thing to do in the summer. Patrick is exhausted...he has put so much into saving this team and it was clear there was still some skepticism at the start of practice, but it was all smiles at the end! Go Barons!
