2 days and counting until Cecilia's very first ball game. It will be an away game against Easton. I find this very ominous as the town shares its name with a famous sporting goods company that specializes in baseball/softball equipment. Coincidence? We shall see. Wade and Cecilia got in some good batting practice tonight. I post this video to instill some fear into the little girls of Easton. Watch out. Cecilia's coming to town. [Okay, that was lame. I need to brush up on my baseball trash talk]
Cecilia is excited because they are handing out the team "costumes" at practice tomorrow. This reminds me of a conversation I had with Ceci several months ago during basketball season [I still cannot believe we are National Champions!]
[Scene] Cecilia and Mommy are eating breakfast and Cecilia notices a picture of her favorite KU basketball player, Sasha Kahn.
CECILIA: "Hey, that's Sasha Kahn!"
MOMMY: "Yep. It sure is."
CECILIA: "He is the one in the white costume."
MOMMY: "Actually, it is called a uniform."
CECILIA: "MOM! Sasha Kahn plays for the Jayhawks! NOT the Unicorns."
Ah, kids and the darn things they say. Ya know, I wonder if there is a team out there with a Unicorn as their mascot. I challenge you, dear reader, to find one. Leave proof in the comments if you find one.

WOW...Ceci can really hit that ball! Can't wait to see her new team "costume"!
Here's what I found using Google...
"Unicorn Pride is a short documentary about the Texas town of New Braunfels. Its community claims to be the only high school in the nation with a Unicorn mascot. They're so proud of their unicorns, every school in the town has it as their mascot.
Fanatical faculty, proud parents and tradition-conscious students take their dedication of the Unicorn to another level. The whole Unicorn community comes together every week for those Friday night lights. Mystical Creature or not: Unicorn Pride is justified" Nana Debbie
I found a high school basketball team in L.A. that is called the Laces Unicorns.
Watching her play baseball sure brings back a lot of memories!
