Yes, Baseball is Here!!

I am the worst blogger ever. I just feel pulled in so many directions that I can hardly keep my head above water! There are only 9 more weeks of school, and I am counting down, you can be sure. You know I must be going crazy if I haven't even posted baseball pictures!!! Sooooo....here they are. Braden's team played their first tournament of the season and did pretty well. They lost in the semi-finals but that's the way it goes.
I took this first picture before we even got to the ballpark. It was the only way to get him while his new pants were spotless. (Actually, he had already gotten dirt on one of the knees so I made him cover it up with his hand...boys!)
I love how their uniforms turned out. They looked so sharp out there. We went with the long pants this year, and they are too cute.

Here he is showing off his awesome swing. He's been working hard on his hitting, and he did awesome.
I love this picture. It's of Braden and Richard. Can you see how they are standing exactly the same? Legs, hands, everything. I love it!
Of course, he's the star catcher. He threw 3 runners out on 2nd and 1 on 3rd. For a 10 year old, that is unbelievable. You always hear people talking about our catcher. It's all I can do to not scream, "he's mine!!!"

Braden and Richard do look exactly alike in that pic.....like father, like son!!

Enjoy the rest of your week!!

Those are awesome pictures! We've started practice but our games don't begin until the end of March.

Let me tell you I got like a week behind and could never catch up when everyone was sick at our house. I finally just stpped trying and started fresh one morning. It gets very overwhelming because you feel bad if you're not commenting...take your time though :) RElax!!

Okay, that father son picture is just priceless! I LOVE getting pictures of Blake and Joe on the field together. Sounds like Braden is having a great season already. Too funny that his pants got dirty before the game. I am so right there with ya! The amount of dirt these boys can bring in is staggering!

Our tournament will probably be rained out this weekend so maybe I can catch up on some things!

Fun that baseball is starting and that your boys are so involved-- you and richard too! We are finishing hockey and starting soccer next week with a 2 week overlap plus all the other stuff-- way too busy.

Have fun and hope your boys do well this season!!
