We went to the Greenville Drive Baseball Game this past Sunday, our friends Walden and Carter were there as well as Nanny and Poppie. We all had fun, despite the hot weather. Tripp and Carter played pretend baseball in the stands, and I tried to keep Colin out of the sun. They also had a jersey auction to benefit the Greenville Children's Hospital. Stephen as you may all know LOVES a jersey auction! He purchased Tripp a jersey from his favorite player, #34 Jered Stanley. They got to go out on the field and get the game worn jersey. Jared took a lot of time with Tripp and was so nice to him! He took his jersey off and put it on Tripp - it was so big on him, he could barely walk in it! Tripp then took off and ran the bases all alone dragging the jersey with him. I can not even tell you how happy Tripp is to have this jersey. He wore it to school the next day, and talked about himself in third person all day like he was Jered Stanley. The best thing he said was, "Mom, Jered Stanley loves it when his mom gives him pop tarts for breakfast!" Tripp is now on the Greenville Drive Website (see http://www.greenvilledrive.com/ ) featured with Jered on the field after he got the Jersey.
