Baseball Tournament Champs

Playing right field

Pitching in the 5th inning

On base

Not sure who was more excited... Benjamin or Pop Pop!

The Big trophy!

What an exciting weekend! The travel team Benjamin is on... the Warwick Cardinals played in a tournament this past weekend. They lost their first game on Saturday. The second game went into 3 extra innings to determine the winner... we were happy to squeak that win out. Sunday we won our first game which put us up against the number 1 seeded Donegal team. This team is undefeated in their regular season play. Our boys played their hearts out! We ended up winning 11-10. Benjamin was the first batter up at the bottom of the 6th. He hit a single to get himself on base. The 3rd batter up hit him home for the winning run. Oh, and he was brought in to pitch the bottom of the 5th... 1 out bases loaded. I was in need of some serious heart medicine for that! Third base made a double play to keep them in the game. Benjamin finished out the 6th inning.. one strike out and then 2 other outs on the field by his team. What a day! So proud of you Benjamin and team! Thanks to our faithful fans... the grandparents!!!

June Fun So Far....

Can you tell it's been really hot here?!? 90 degree weather in early June!

Fun with friend Tia

Swimming lessons at the rec

Well as you can see from my many blog posts... it's been busy around our household (that and the fact that I was waaaay behind on them)! Preschool is over for Alissa, she just finished her last swimming lesson (we are planning on some more this summer. She made great progress, but has a long way to go), we've been to the strawberry patch, enjoyed many baseball games, and are looking forward to Benjamin's last day of school! June 16th can't come quick enough. Bring on summer!

More May Celebration

May 28th was my birthday and we celebrated it that weekend. We enjoyed fun times at the beach that weekend with friends and then had a fun celebration on Monday. I am looking forward to a weekend away with Brent that he planned along with a day of sailing with friends. The kids were so excited to give me my present as well.... a kitten. We are looking forward to the new addition to our family in a couple of weeks. Brent even had a b-day cake for me... complete with a kitten on it. He's the best!
