What a Weekend!

We had an amazing weekend at the ballpark. 2 games on Saturday and 3 on Sunday. Each game was so exciting! Our team worked so hard, and won the whole thing! It was the best baseball we've ever played. Richard said he thinks he'll have a heart attack one day on that field. I know what he means, I think I might have a heart attack sitting in the stands!! I am so proud of Braden. He works so hard out there and doesn't let his teammates down. He loses his voice anytime we have a couple of games because he is constantly cheering for and encouraging his teammates.

We played about an hour away and didn't end up making it home until about 9:30 last night. Everyone was filthy and exhausted. We are still dragging, but don't have time to rest. Bryce is playing right now and the other two have games tomorrow. Every night this week, there is at least one game. I love it, I just wish school would stop getting in the way!!
I love this picture of Braden. In between games, our whole group would go behind the field and hang out while we waited to play again. The weather was perfect. This is Braden's way of taking it easy.
The Rays, showing off their proud smiles and their hard-earned trophies.
My happy, filthy, exhausted, proud little boy. Those pants will not make it to see another game (They're supposed to be white). He tore right through the knee sliding into home. He thought we should frame them :)

Oh we are living the baseball life right now too...we do have a two night break this week since we don't have a game until wednesday. I told my husband when Caleb started we'd have three playing and then we'd really be crazy!

Congrats Braden!!!!! Awesome playing!

Seriously the pants....I spray and spray and spray....why in the world do they make the dirt red on the fields when they're always wearing white pants. They are never the same again :)

Congrats!!! That is so awesome! My oldest is just starting with Little League AA! I LOVE IT although it can be painful to watch at times. He has so much fun though, and that is what counts!!!

My husband bought my son his first pair of sliding shorts with a built-in cup yesterday. He was strutting around like crazy! Too funny!
