Rally Cap

The Urban Dictionary defines Rally Cap - "to wear one's baseball cap turned inside out and often sideways to encourage a rally from your favorite baseball team. Must be performed in the confines of a sporting facility and works best in the late innings of a game with runners on base."



This weekend we watched a few of Braydon's baseball games. In a couple of the innings my brother's declared it "rally cap" time and then proceeded to turn their hats into a crazy position while yelling for the team. I had no idea what it meant but was quickly told(after the shock of my lack of knowledge wore off) that I needed to understand it's importance as a member of the family.



I had no idea such a term/practice existed, but whatever it was it worked. The first time Braydon's team scored 4 runs and the 2nd time "rally cap" was done, the team scored 2 runs to win the game, with Braydon hitting the winning home-run.



I'm now a believer in the "rally cap" term and it's influence to help the team!

Great Job Braydon!!

ONT

I won't have time to post a complete vacation update until we are home and I can sort through pictures, so until than I'll offer glimpses of some of our vacation activities. First up is the game of ONT, which is basically a game of rebounding with no fouls called, the more pushing & shoving the better the game.


Cody was introduced to the game of ONT today. It was fun to watch as my brothers taught him the tips and tricks to the game that is suppose to be pronounced as the sound of a buzzer at the end of a basket ball game.



It took Cody a couple rounds to understand he had to be very physical if he wanted a chance to get the ball.







Cody wasn't sure about all this, but soon became comfortable pushing & shoving in order to stay in the game.







Greg won the first two games and Cody won the last one. Good Job Cody!

Hair Flip

I was clearing off my memory card tonight and came across this video. I really don't ever remember taking it(sometime last year), so in honor of another long haircut session for Cody tonight I'm posting it for your entertainment. It's short & sweet...



The new look, and by look I mean that he can actually look and see something besides his bangs...Love those blue eyes Mr. Cody!
