Born
I was born at 9:15 AM in Arlington, Texas. I was a little less than 7 pounds. I was the second child for my parents. My older brother, Shawn, was born 5 years earlier. http://mjbabs.blogspot.com/ -

My parents had their final child. They named him Eric. http://www.minthegap.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/windowslivewriterchildrenpregnantmothersanddoctorsknow-bb92baby-drool3.jpg -
First Day of School
I began Kindergarten as a four year old. My birthday barely made the cut for the private school I signed up for. I was the youngest kid in class almost every year of my life. http://rlv.zcache.com/first_day_of_school_mousepad-p144663336390083135trak_400.jpg -
Started Soccer
I played soccer for four years. All of them with the same coach, Coach Mercer. We played the first three years as the Duncanville Cobras. In my last year we turned select and joined the Dallas Lightning organization. I played defense as the sweeper unless we were losing, then I would play up and try to force a goal somehow. I eventually had to choose between soccer and baseball because they overlapped. I chose baseball. http://www.visualparadox.com/images/no_linking_allowed/soccerball1600.jpg -

Started Baseball
First season of baseball. I played for the Duncanville Cardinals coached by my dad. I was number seven. The age was known as Pinto League and it was machine pitch. I was chosen as one of the Pinto League Duncanville All-stars. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/Baseball.jpg -

First Strikeout
I still remember my first strikeout. I was 9 years old and playing for the Duncanville Giants. I was so upset. I would soon realize that hundreds of these would follow in my life. I got over it. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RreRk-1Opk0/TN6417tewkI/AAAAAAAAAto/vDLxmKZEGRc/s1600/sad-face.gif -
Select Baseball
I joined my first select baseball team, the Dallas Texans. -

First College Homerun
In my first game at SAGU, we played in Oklahoma. I was chosen to be the leadoff hitter. I hadn't ever led off before so I was a little nervous. I hit the first pitch of the season over the fence. It was sweet. I went on to hit five that season. http://www.edspresso.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/homerun.jpg -
Three Homeruns
I hit three homeruns in one game against East Texas Baptist University. http://www.republican-eagle.com/media/story/jpg/2011/05/20/pat-kelly-hr.jpg -
Torn PCL
I dove head first into third base. It didn't feel too bad, but it was. I tore my PCL (works with the ACL) in my right knee. I could barely walk but still played shortstop, pitched, and led off the rest of the season, but was extremely slow. http://www.childrens.com/Specialties/img-manual/SportsMedicine/pcl-injury.jpg -
Last Baseball Game
I played my last baseball game of my career against Northwood University in Cedar Hill. In my final at bat, I called my shot Babe Ruth style. The catcher cussed me out. I hit one long foul ball, but in the end I flyed out to left instead. :( http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/chicago-baseball-stories/Ruth%20shot%20pic.jpg -
Golf
I started golfing regularly once I was no longer playing baseball. I had to stay competitive somehow. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AcP5BB3X2uM/TeL6sccq9XI/AAAAAAAAAT4/ZnDMDqhUELg/s1600/Golf.jpg -

Dasher & Dancer Lighting
I started a Christmas light installation business. The business has grown from 12 houses the first year to over 40 in its third year. It's an enjoyable way to make some extra money, and I hope to keep growing the business to be as big as I can handle. -
