TJ gave his dad two tickets to the Cubs game for his birthday earlier this month. They attended the game together on Saturday. Although the trip was to celebrate Todd's birthday, TJ ended up with all the souvineers!

GO TIGERS GO
The Tigers faced three teams yesterday in practice scrimmages. TJ is #81 and plays both sides of the line. He caught two passes for touchdowns and was quarterback in the 3rd scrimmage! Here are a few snapshots of TJ making some handoffs to his teammates!

Busy Week
First, TJ rejoined the Aztec Basketball Team for a late summer session on the Court. They played thier first game on Sunday losing a physically rough game 50-53. TJ scored 13 points!
TJ received his football jersey last night. He was very excited to announce he is #81. GO TIGERS. They have scrimmage matches Saturday morning against the two St. Luke teams and Immaculate Heart. Then he and Todd are racing to Chicago to a Cubs game. TJ is already analyzing what souvineer he wants.
Tonight was Back to School night. We visited TJ's classroom and met his teacher, Mrs. Zinkan. She previously taught 2nd grade for 16 years but chose this year to be challenged with the 4th graders! Perhaps she suffers from amnesia since she had most of them two years ago!!!! Not sure what she is thinking.
Tomorrow is another full day for the Mann Family (school, work, practice and homework).
TJ started his piano lessons last Friday. His lessons are weekly and he still enjoys them. Bonus!
Then it is the weekend - perhaps I will rest during the day while the boys venture to Chicago between loads of laundry, bathing the dog, paying bills and updating facebook!

Happy 95th Birthday!
We gathered this evening for dinner at Johnny Carinos in Greenwood to celebrate my Grandma Bruce's 95th birthday. It took TJ a few minutes to calculate the year she was born!

Indiana Prospects!
TJ has accepted a place on the 10U Indiana Prospects baseball team for 2010. He tried out for several travel teams and was offered a position on each. He took his time and thought about the opportunities and selected the Prospects. It will be a new program, new coaches and teammates. We are excited for him & TJ will gel with the team instantly we are sure. TJ's first call was to his Skiles Test Cobras Coach - Brett Whigham!
Great Lakes Region Championship Game
Our nephew Devin and his teammates had their debut on ESPN Saturday night. Devin was the lead off hitter for the Bartholomew County Little League (BCLL) in the championship game against Kentucky. Unfortunately, Kentucky advanced to the Little League World Series but we could not be more proud of Devin and his team! They were awesome to watch and we enjoyed every minute of the season!
