How was your Thanksgiving?  Did you eat a lot?  What are you thankful for?  I am thankful for baseball, friends, fans, books, and hot dogs!

Even though there are no games at the ballpark, I still stay a little busy in the off-season.  Thursday I will be at the Rockford Meijer with Maranda helping families shop for the holidays.  Saturday I will be in the Wyoming-Kentwood parade with some Whitecaps staff and then head to DeVos Children’s Hospital for a special event for the new hospital. 

The new hospital will be awesome, I just know it!  Sometimes, the players invite me to visit patients with them during the summer.  Everyone is so nice at the hospital and I even get to play the Wii with the kids.  They usually win though.  Hopefully they will go easy on me this time.

Have fun over the holidays!
