Month: October 2017

Monday started the week of playoffs. Brandon went to school wearing his white jersey and bottoms. He was excited, and it was at the school. Dave was there from the beginning and I joined them after work. Peyton was picked up from school by Dave, and she was doing her homework.

They played Hyde, and it was a blow out. Brandon had some playing time, especially after I'd arrived just after half time. Peyton was telling me about her class election results, so I missed filming one of Brandon's baskets. Here's the second one:

He got a defensive board:

With the win, they would be playing Cup middle on Tuesday, who they had lost pretty badly to earlier in the season. Brandon had a fresh uniform, having done laundry the day before after Monday's game. He was wearing white again. One of our big men wasn't playing that game, as he was out with a sore wrist. He came strong today. I arrived in the second half once again, and Peyton was already there with Dave.

They played a close game, and Brandon told me he was a bench leader. They were into the game, watching closely, but they were not IN the game. He was okay with it, knowing his role on the team. As we left the game, some kids were passing us on scooters. They called out to him, "Hey, number 30. That's Steph Curry's number.

Good game! ". It was nice that they were being cool with it. They were not shy at all.

They had a break on Wednesday, though they had practice. And then Brandon went to baseball practice.

Today, the coach gave them passes out of class early, about 30 minutes. The parents shuttled them over to the school before the other school dismissed their students. They warmed up and got ready for the league championship. Brandon went to school again, dressed in the blue side of the uniform.

I didn't think Brandon would get a lot of playing time, but they were down by a lot in the second half. He did get to play, and here he is drawing the foul:
Prior to the game, Q, one of the big men, came up to Dave and asked him nicely to work on free throw shooting with Brandon. Apparently, the other kids on the team were riding him about his free throw inability.

Well, after the foul, he was shooting two.

Here he is:
They didn't end up winning, but they did get a small second place trophy. They were edged out 38 to 19.

His season is short and now over. Wrestling is next, and he is thinking about it, but Dave doesn't want him to get seriously hurt. He'll continue with basketball in the league he's in as well as his baseball team.

This weekend, we put the "travel" in travel ball. After Brandon's baseball practice and Peyton's basketball practice Friday night, we packed and got ready for an early headstart on Saturday. The first game was 930 am, meaning we had to be there at 830 am, meaning we had to leave at 7 am since our field was in Manteca. We got up by 6 am, and Peyton heard my alarm and got herself ready. She doesn't do it for much else, but softball is a different story. The two of us headed out ourselves, as Brandon had basketball practice, so he stayed with Dave for that from 10 to 12 pm. They would miss our first game. Peyton was going to be leadoff batter for our first game. She was playing against a tough pitcher, and she struck out a few times. She didn't do well at all on Saturday, even after Dave showed up. Luckily, she didn't get down on herself about it, and she is no longer crying after strikeouts. She was playing second base as well as right field, as they had a ringer pitcher come out.

After the first game, Dave and Brandon showed up to Big League Dreams, which is a park that has 6 fields, all replicas of famous MLB stadiums. She was playing at Yankee Stadium, and I gave my dad a shot of her "playing" there, as it's his favorite team.

They finished up two games there, going 1-2 for the day. The highlight of the games for Peyton was when the two youngest girls were playing center field (V) and right field (Peyton). A batter hit a pop fly to center, and the littlest girl on the field, Little, who is a head shorter than Peyton, dove for the ball and came up with it in her glove. The next batter hit one to Peyton, who had to run in, and made the catch on the run, down by her feet. It wasn't enough to win the game, but it was good fielding nevertheless. The girls headed back to the hotel and straight to the pool. There were some baseball boys that showed up about an hour in, and they just sat and watched through the windows in their full uniforms at the girls. Then did join, and some of them were a bit rough. They were probably Brandon's age or younger. But he was annoyed by them, so he got out and showered himself up. Dave was out getting dinner with some other parents, so I was on kid duty. Peyton got hit in the eye with one of them, so I pulled her out to recover. Finally, when the food arrived, the girls showered up and joined us for dinner.

The Sunday game started bright and early at 8 am. Luckily, we were staying close enough. The girls had to be there by 7 am, and breakfast was not supposed to start until then. Fortunately, the front desk staff opened up early, by 630 am or earlier. While Brandon and I got up, Dave reminded me we had 2 cars, so there was no rush for us. Brandon had to get up at 6 am two mornings in a row. He can't sleep in anyway, especially if there is any noise. SO we headed out shortly after they did.

Peyton was lead off batter again, and she did a much better job.

They were playing at Detroit stadium. I stopped filming, but she'd gotten safe to first, then her coach must have sent her to second.

She had pickles for breakfast, as she made the other team play catch and she was monkey in the middle for 3-4 exchanges. Finally, she ran back to first, and the first base coach, all 6'2" and 250# of him got down on the ground with her to get her to slide. She slid successfully back to the bag and was called safe. She then stole the next pitch, sliding safely into second. She's getting more comfortable doing that. Glad to see she found her bat once again. I asked Brandon what she ate for breakfast; his response, "Froot Loops." Um, breakfast of champions?

She got up again in this game:
Too bad, it was a nice hit, but it went right back to the pitcher who fielded it cleanly.

We ended up losing this game, though we'd been up for most of the game. That sent us to the silver bracket back at the other field at 11 am. I sent an email off to the piano teacher that we'd be missing out on the performance party at 130 pm. We went back to that field and waited until our game to start. The other teams were headed over as well. We were playing a team we'd beaten in a previous tournament. It was a tough battle, and it came down to a tie breaker. We were the home team and held the other team with bases loaded.

Here is a pickle Peyton got herself into:

I secretly think she loves it, as it's an adrenaline rush!

It was our turn up, and we got the runs in, with the last one being a walked in run for the win. We were moving on to the next game at 2 pm. I was getting nervous about our 630 pm little mermaid tickets in SJ. Dave had to get Brandon to practice by 530 pm.

The game at 2 pm was against the team that we'd barely beaten the day before. We were a player down, as she was going back home to see her grandma, who was not doing well and was in the hospital.

We struggled, and it was not the same outcome as the day before. We were ousted in the semifinal game. Dave had left halfway through the game, while I left just after. She slept in the car, while I drove us back to SJ. She woke up just as we were getting off the freeway, after sleeping maybe an hour.

We enjoyed the musical; she was a great date! We went potty to start, walked around, she didn't want anything to eat, nothing by way of souvenirs, as she thought the t-shirts were too expensive ($25-40), which she was right for a kid's shirt. I got myself one in my size, but not the one I'd wanted. We both yawned a few times during the show. We were sitting in the second row, one row behind our seats for Annie. She enjoyed it as did I. We got home just after 9 pm, and she showered up and got ready for bed. Brandon was eagerly awaiting our return. What a weekend! I don't think we could have packed any more in than we did.

Here are the pictures:

Assume her position

At school, Brandon can apply for Renaissance, which is explained here:

Back of his ID card:

I guess he found out about it in homeroom and decided to apply, as I mentioned the prize was a pizza party and there was soda there.

He did all that it took to get the signatures needed, and since he was doing after school basketball, that counted for his extra-curricular activity. He didn't want to do it next semester, since he didn't want to ask his J-league coach for a signature, since it's outside of school, who wouldn't know what it was all about.

He got 5 front of the lunch line passes, which he gave three away to his friends, since he doesn't get hot lunch. He passed them out because the friends have to wait so long for the line during lunch.
I gave him incentive to use the next two in his possession for a job well done. He chose to get lunch today, so I gave him money. http://www.fundacionvision.org.pa/cialis-2865.html generic viagra usa The effect of this drug takes lesser time to work then the alternatives that are found.

He reported that lunch was SO good, as he had two helpings of Caesar salad, along with the tater tots and corn dogs that he told me he would get. He even got to keep his front of the line pass since he was already at the front of the line. Winner winner corn dog dinner!

I challenged him to get it all three trimesters this year. So far, he's got GOLD going on!

Good job, buddy!
