Brooks

Bridger wanted to go to the Bee's game on his birthday. While we were there he took these pictures of Brooks. It's hard to believe he's more than 6 months now. It's weird, this last 8+ months have both sped by and been too long.

Fundraiser

Bridger's baseball team is having a huge yard and BAKE SALE on Saturday, August 1st from 7-12. They are trying to raise money for their trip to Cooperstown, New York next summer. So if you are in the area stop in! We will have lots of yummy treats and my mom is baking her famous homemade bread! It's at the Christensen's--315 West Salem Highway in Salem.

Happy Birthday Brookie!

We thank Heavenly Father everyday that you get to be here with our family. We love you!!

Itchy

Dear Mr. Stewart (we now fondly refer to you as "Itchy"),

It has come to my understanding that you have an issue. I'm not sure what the exact problem is, and I'm not sure you are even aware of your problem. There are, after all, thousands of fans watching you every day and that has not deterred you.
I Googled your salary info and it is reported as $404,000 for 2009. Now I know this is meager for MLB standards, but I'm sure it'll buy you some cream, or perhaps a better fitting cup.

We were impressed with the 3 homeruns you hit in the 2 games we attended, but honey, I don't think this is your magic genie.

Try to remember that there are impressionable children at the ballpark. Cute little girls with pink mitts shouldn't have to watch this.

Once we became aware of your situation we were curious. So we counted. In one SHORT, I'm talking 3 up, 3 down inning......39 TIMES!!

Surely your mother has mentioned this to you. It's not even just itching. There was definite cupage. And rubbing. Ew.
In closing, I'd just like to say that I'm thankful I don't have to do your laundry. And please, get that looked at. Your self examination is just not cutting it.
