Sorry for the delay in blogging. We have been keeping pretty busy over here in Iowa and I have found little time to get on here to give you all an update. We have been on a couple road trips since my last blog...one to Peoria and another to Kane County in Illinois. We also had a few days off during the All-Star break, which was a blast. We spent some time with my grandma and family in Illinois. It was about a 2 1/2 hour drive for us. We also went to a drive-inn theatre with our host family. Whom by the way, have been such a sweet blessing from the Lord in our lives. Daniel and I lived with them for a portion of the 2009 baseball season, but this year we've really been able to spend more time with them, they have really become family to us. Baseball is so neat in that way that it takes us to towns and places we'd never go and allows us to meet such wonderful people. The whole community out here in Iowa has left such a sweet impression on my heart. I have gotten to know a great group of season ticket holders over at the Lumberking stadium and have really enjoyed getting to know the people out here.
Anyways, things have been going well. Daniel hit a homerun in his last game out in Kane County (I added the video below, sorry it's a little shaky-I got excited, haha). Praise God! Also, there's an awesome guy out here in Clinton who has also become a good friend to Daniel and I that records and uploads alot of videos of the players out here. You can check it out by searching 'Daniel Carroll' on Youtube.
I have been loving being out here with Daniel again. The Lord has been showing me alot to be 'content' in where He has us in baseball. So often, it's easy to get caught up in the 'ups' and 'downs' of baseball, but I find so much peace in knowing we can find stability in Christ! I'm sure I've shared that before, but I can't help but to be excited about that!
