Baseball, baseball & more baseball!!

Wow! We've been so busy with baseball this week!

We had games at 8:00pm in Bowie (which is an hour away) on Thursday night and Friday night. Saturday we had a game there at noon and 4, but the one at 4 got rained out. We sat in the car until 5 and finally just left. We were supposed to play at 8am this morning, got there & it was raining, and the tournament got cancelled. So we got up at 5:30 and drove 2 hours for nothing! Not a big deal since diesel is so cheap right now! ha ha

The boys have done great! We won our 1st game 10-7, won the 2nd one 27-12, then Saturday lost to our old nemesis the Burke Blaze 21-18. It was such a heartbreaker!! That's the 4th time they've beat us and we get closer every time. We were ahead most of the game. They have won 6 tournaments this summer and have yet to be beat.

Jake cracked his bat somehow and has been using a big barrel bat the past 2 games. He went 3 for 3 against the Blaze and scored runs all three times! They are such a good group of boys and we're having so much fun with them.

Here's a picture of half of the team in my car watching a movie while we were waiting to see if we'd play our game Saturday afternoon.

Here's a video of a couple of Jake's hits:

Pics from this morning :(

June 20 Update

Sorry it's been so long! We have been busy!


Jake has been playing baseball. He had a tournament this week...1 game on Tues (won), 2 games on Wed (lost 1, won 1) and a game last night for the championship, which we lost to the same team that beat us last time! But they played them great last night. We're going to beat them next time!! We'll see them again I'm sure.

Hunter has started going to Mother's Day Out for 6 weeks. He is enjoying playing with a lot of his buddies who also go. They went to the Old Post Office Museum yesterday and had water day too.



Riley is also going to MDO and has enjoyed it. He's been enjoying Jake's games too.



Last weekend we went to Brownsville so the boys could go fishing with PaPaw. They had a blast. We stayed at Jack & Diana's friends' house and the boys got to swim. Kelly & I took them to Padre Island one afternoon so they could play at the beach. And they got to go fishing too. It was a very long drive, but it was fun.


Here's a link to some of the pictures:

We still have the 5 puppies and their momma. They are all adopted though! YEAH!!! They had their 1st puppy shots yesterday, so they will have another set in 2 weeks and then they'll go to their new homes. We have adopters coming from over 2 hours away to get these guys. They are so worth it...they are so sweet!!



The boys have had so much fun with them. We're all going to miss them.
