1 year - more or less

It has now been (almost) 1 year since our first post on this blog so I'd like to thank the two of you who have followed along on our journey even if you did skip over my ramblings and go straight to the pictures.

Baseball season is over for Kevin. His team ended the year on a high note by winning their double header this last weekend. Actually, the team has one more game tomorrow but Kevin is at church camp this week so he will miss it. Kevin also ended the season well by coming out of his batting slump to finish the season strong.


Kevin at bat. He clubbed the next pitch but it went straight to the darn short stop. He made a good throw to first that just barely beat Kevin for an out.


Cameron has one more game on Wednesday. His team has been improving all year; however, I'm still counting the small victories such as all the basemen covering their base after a hit or the outfielders backing each other up when the hits go deep. This team has been a joy to coach.


That right there is the look of determination. Too bad he struck out this time. He looked good doing it though...

This weekend I bought a triple slide slip-n-slide for the boys. With the temperature reaching, oh about 253 degrees, they spent a few hours straight playing on it. We had to make them quit to come in for dinner.

Now Kevin


And finally Cade. Cade would only slide about 2 feet on his own. I took a few turns throwing him down the slide and he loved it.

Nothing like a slip & slide for summer fun! Thankfully we aren't into the blistering hot weather yet here, but I know it's coming. Enjoy your summer!
