Dear Megan...

Our sisters won the section championship today by upsetting Cherry in two games, first game 5-2, the second game we 10 runned them (because we could) 12-2. I know you already know this but it is exciting to write. I was bummed because Tuesday when the girls played I was so busy at work I couldn't make it to the games and today we had a work gathering from 4 pm to 6 pm, so I got the text they won the first game and snuck out. I drove pretty slow to Cloquet. :) HAHA- I was on two wheels with smoke shooting out from my tires. Luckily I saw most the game and the celebration stuff of course!

Anyways, I would love nothing more than to put my lawn chair next to yours in Mankato. We could hang out at the hotel together, possibly enjoy dinner in our families' company. The weather here is even getting nicer, it was 76 today :) or warmer. Just saying I hope it works out for you to come. This is a direct quote of what I told your Dad, I said, "Can you please make me a promise? Do whatever it takes to get Megan here for the state tourney, short of donating plasma for money, that's just crazy..."

Also, your sister got interviewed for the news. It was cute, Pats was moving out of the way and I yelled for the news guy to get an interview with her. No such luck, but I'm sure channel 10 would have seen a sure boost in ratings. It's kind of funny that my Dad didn't want to play Kirst at pitcher and then she looked strong in warm ups so he took a shot- smooth move Mikey, eh? Everyone was so excited when they won- they deserve it. Lexi cried of course, Biz gave me a huge hug (sidebar: did you know she is singing at graduation? I am going.), Taylor was out of control excited, Marina Carter hit the ball like she was on steroids, Jess was pretty sweet, and your sister was awesome- as usual- and she is praying you are coming, as am I.

Long story short, I hope you are coming! I LOVE AND MISS YOU!

PS Sorry I took so long to write you a Dear Megan. Trust me it's not my lack of missing you- I have been thinking about you a lot lately...
