Louie Vuitton

Watching daddy pitch at Mazda Stadium
I am still in the process of uploading pictures from the past couple of weeks, but things have been crazy around here between road trips, illnesses, and visitors.  Anyway, I will do it soon, I promise.  So, I have a funny story and a pitching update.  Mike pitched tonight.  He pitched the 9th inning, giving up one hit, and that's it.  2 ground ball outs and 1 pop fly.  He continues to amaze us and we just thank all of you for your continued support and prayers.

Now for the funny story!  So, we went out to dinner a couple of weeks ago with our friends the Lewis family.  We were eating when a table of young men recognized Mike and Colby.  Well, usually when fans see these guys they grab whatever they can get their hands on for an autograph.  We have seen shirts, napkins, baseball cards (that they just happen to have in their pockets), and paper of course.  Well, that night was unlike any other.  Two of the guys went into their "murses"  (man purses) and pulled out their Louie Vuitton wallets.  They literally had Mike and Colby sign their Louie Vuitton wallets that probably cost about $1300.  Mike made me swear that night that even if Brad Pitt was standing next to me, that I would NEVER have him sign anything remotely close to that.  I told him not to worry; I think it would give me a panic attack before him anyway.  

Have a great rest of your weekend and a fabulous upcoming week!  We love and miss you all very much!

Oh, wow. Still, gotta say I'd prefer a wallet over a boob. :)

Dude, these people don't mess around with their LV's. They all have real ones, they spend most their money on purses, clothes, shoes, etc, and live in small places. Crazy!
