Home Run King, well almost!!

Last night for FHE Brady decided we were going to watch the Home Run Derby! One of the ball players was a guy named JOSH HAMILTON, we first heard about him watching the original Flip this House in SC, he was friends with Richard and made an appearance on the show. He was just getting his life back because, he was heavily into drugs and alcohol and had to quit the minor minor baseball league. After that Brady started following him as a player, he has been back in baseball a couple of years. Well last night he hit an amazing 28 home runs in the first round of the derby and didn't even have to hit again until the finals. Well after that amazing performance he ended up coming up a little short and lost the trophy! During his at bats Ellie sat on her Daddy's lap and watched history in the making. I don't know which Brady was happier about the home runs or Ellie watching sports with him!

I'm surprised you got her to watch baseball for that long!! She must have really liked it! We were in St. George last week, but with my parents leaving on a mission and my whole family there, I didn't get to get in touch with some of the other people I wanted. So, NEXT time we are there, we'll let you know cause we need to get together!

We did the same thing for FHE, that's funny! It was pretty cool to watch history in the making. Jeff was really into it. Ellie is SO cute! I can't believe she is already 1 years old. It seems like y'all are doing well.

He was freakin' awesome! We were rooting for him too! In my book, he won.
