End of the season for Summer baseball


Ryan enjoying the pool.

All the boys had lined up to get thrown into the pool by the coach. At one point I was behind him while he was throwing them in & was so tempted to push him in. But I didn't have a swimsuit on and didn't feel like getting thrown in myself!


The coach's wife was kind enough to take Emma and Isabel for a little dip.


I've been meaning to post about baseball season, but just now getting an opportunity. Ryan moved up from coach pitch to regular baseball last fall so this is his second season in the minor league. The boys ranged in age from 9 - 11 which basically put him and a couple of his buddies as the youngest ones on the team.

Their playoff games were double elimination and they started last weekend. They won their first playoff game 8 -3 then lost their second game this past Saturday 12 - 18 (against the toughest team in the league). This put them going back Saturday evening for another game, which sadly they lost by 1 point against a team they had beat earlier in the season. It was a pretty emotional evening for the guys, but all in all they had a fairly good season and Ryan improved over the season.

The coach and his wife had the boys out for a pizza & swim party last night so it was fun watching the kids all cutting up together.
