Hey Batter Batter!

April 16, 2018

Another weekend, another round of ball games! The best part was having GJ in town for them! She’s the best baseball cheerleader around! Maxwell played in the mid-season tournament on Friday night. While his team lost, Maxwell played so well and I was incredibly proud of him! He went 3 for 3 on batting, scored 2 runs, and even caught a pop fly!! woohoo! The Pirates may not be at the top of the league but they are all learning so much about baseball and sportsmanship and are having the most fun!

Saturday morning Spencer had a t-ball game and did great too! He had good hits and ran the bases like a pro!

Batter up!

April 13, 2018

Happy Friday….the 13th! eek!

Lots of baseball last week in the unexpected FREEZING temps! Didn’t stop my ball players though! Spencer had fun at T-ball Saturday morning despite the cold…

and had some great hits!

That afternoon we headed out to the other ball field for Maxwell’s games. He had some good hits (yay!) and finally got to score his first run!!! Woohoo!

We were back at the ball field on Sunday for another game. We were playing the only team that is undefeated in the league and, it wasn’t looking so great the first half of the game! Maxwell had a good hit and then on his 2nd (or 3rd I can’t remember) time up to bat, that kid HIT A HOME RUN!!! He just put it all together, knocked that ball between first and second, batted in two other runs and make it all the way around the plates himself!! It was AWESOME! He was excited, I was excited, Robert was excited…just the best. The team made quite a comeback and was so close to beating that #1 team. They didn’t quite pull it off but I’m not sure they even cared because they all played their hearts out.

After the game, Maxwell even got the game ball…

I think the only person more proud of Maxwell than me was Maxwell himself! Β πŸ™‚

He’s worked so hard and to see it all pay off was wonderful! There were actually 3 of them that hit home runs that game – Maxwell, Wyatt and Trent!

Goooo Pirates!

We’re playing the mid-season tournament starting tonight and are hoping for some more great hits! Let’s play ball!

Have a great weekend!

The beach

April 10, 2018

Of course we also made it to the beach while down in Naples!

The water was still a little chilly so we didn’t do much swimming but that didn’t bother the kids one bit. They’d rather play in the sand anyway!

This made me laugh…as if fair skinned Spencer EVER needs to lay directly in the sun! ha! He’s got a bright future full of swim shirts and beach umbrellas! πŸ™‚

My beach babies!

While the water was chilly, that didn’t stop Samantha from wading out farther than she needed to go. I kept telling her she was getting too far and she needed to come back. She wouldn’t listen. “I’m fine!”

Well, she took one more step and wasn’t fine and I had to dash out there in my cover up to pull her up and out of the water. Not fun. I was thankful to get back home and swim in the hot tub again where her toes can touch the bottom!

Beach babies out in the sun!
