Baseball Wrap Up

We had a great baseball season. The team came together and it was great fun watching Jace and Parker play on the same team this season.  The league we play in is one of the oldest Little Leagues in the country and was the first to allow girls to play in Little League...they went to court for Carolyn King and changed Little League forever. When they were giving the speech at the picnic, I got a little teary and I'm not nursing or pregnant! I just love hearing about people doing the right thing.

We ended up 3rd in the tournament, but should have been 2nd and been able to play for the championship. Oh well. The closing ceremonies were really fantastic. A small town, getting together for a picnic with lots of good potluck picnic food, fun friends, and lots of baseball boys and trophies. I love the feeling of baseball out here. We were sad to see the season end.

I loved watching both boys play and practice

We were so proud of Parker for working so hard. He was so small and young and held his own!

Jace was an awesome hitter this year. He ended the season with a batting average in the mid 700s. Awesome!





Coach Mike and Coach Jason. Love any man who is willing to commit to coaching. It takes so much time and effort and we are so grateful!

Love the baseball pictures of your boys in the field. I'm such a "sports mom" I love to see other boys in sports! Yours look great. What a fun group to be with!

I'm glad your little league experience was good. Ours was kind of a bummer and I'm not sure Joshua will do baseball again while we live here. Looks like they had fun though.
