Trent & His Grandpa Schneider
As many of you know, Trent has played baseball for most of his life. He has specifically played Home Talent Baseball for 18 years, and this was the first time he won the a Batting Title. He was very excited about that! Last month we had his baseball banquet, and he received his gift for winning. It's a very nice, engraved watch that says Trent's Name and Batting Average for the year. When Trent received the award he said a few words...Most of his speech was about his Grandpa and how he owes a lot to him. He was the one that started him playing and taught him a lot of the game. After the banquet Trent told me that he wanted to give Grandpa Schneider the watch. So the other weekend when we went down to see them and Trent gave him the watch. I wasn't sure if he would except it or not. But he was very proud! He put the watch on right away. We took pictures, including his phone (so he could show his poker buddies). It was fun. Trent got to say thank you for all his Grandpa has done over the years for him. I know how much of an influence on Trent he has had. That is why we named Kale after him! (Grandpa Schneider's First Name is Carl, and Kale's middle name is Carl) It was a special day! I know it's one that we will remember for a long time! *Note - The watch is wrapped around the bat handle.*
