We are a “baseball family”. My husband was a pitcher in college so pretty much my 8 year old son, Evan, has been groomed to be a ball player since birth! When our 6 year old daughter, Shayna, decided to do T-ball this year, she said “of course I want to play, I don’t want to be left out!”
Shayna is on the Yankees and the team had their first game this past Saturday. Decked out with a pink glove, a pink bat, and pink cleats—what she calls her “costume”—she surely showed the boys on the team what girl power is all about!
This upcoming Saturday is the baseball parade and both of my children will be marching with their teams. Unfortunately I can’t be with them that day—I previously committed to hosting a Hanky Panky Crystalization event at the Nordstrom in Short Hills, NJ this Saturday (4/21) and the store has been super busy booking their customers’ pre-orders!
Of course I’m racked with guilt that I’m going to miss the parade, so I volunteered to make her team’s banner. Instead of enjoying the gorgeous weather over the weekend, I was feverishly painting in my dining room!
I must say, the banner came out fantastic! Even though I can’t physically be with the kids at the parade, I’ll definitely be marching with them in spirit!
Go Yankees!
Come see me at the Short Hills Nordstrom this Saturday 4/21 in the lingerie department. Say something funny or surprise your honey…with any Hanky Panky purchase, customize your panties!
