Brace Yourself

Lets face it, we're not professional writers. In fact, I will do my best to keep the spelling errors to a minimum. The following are random thoughts as we reflect on life and our beautiful family. Hope family and friends enjoy!

Copyright Infringement

Maybe the following is copyright infringement...but I do so declare that the following was NOT made with expressed written consent of Major League Baseball....

Madeline LOVES her Brewer book, and we have found ourselves singing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" nightly as we prepare for bed...seriously...over and over...
Well it was a action packed Sunday a couple weeks ago.  Madeline was having a great time but was obviously overtired.  She was hugging random things; saying Hiyah and snuggling with her blanket.  So we decided to go down for a nap...not so..it became a struggle as the words "Eat," "Mulk," "Tigger," and "Towas" streamed continuously out of her mouth as she snuggled...finally Papa asked..."Do you want to sing a song?"  to which she giggled...and I thought...ugh...ballgame again...but I had an idea...so was born.....

"Take Me Over to Hiyah"
(Melody of Take me out to the Ballgame)
"Take Me Over to Hiyah"
"Put Me down in my Crib..."
"Cover me with all my Blankets..."
"I don't care if I get a little warrrmmm.."
"Cause it's Root, Root Root to go Hiyah...."
"If you don't sleep its a shame..."
"Cause you need....your...rest....so you can cheer..."
"For the Pack-er Game!"

I sang it five times in a row...and it worked!  For ten minutes...then we ate crackers....
