READY FOR OPENING CEREMONIES!

PAPA JOE EVEN WENT TO THE WORLD SERIES WITH US!  WE FIGURED WHY REAL QUICK THOUGH, WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO THE SLOT MACHINES:)! 

 

BEFORE OPENING CEREMONIES ALL THE BASEBALL TEAM TRADE THEIR VERY OWN PINS THAT THEY HAD DESIGNED AND THEN THEY PIN THEM TO THEIR LITTLE TOWELS WE HAD MADE FOR THEM!  IT WAS SUCH A NEAT THING AND THEY HAD A BALL RUNNING AROUND AND TRADING PIN WITH ALL THE BASEBALL PLAYERS!

THE BOYS ALL STAR TEAM DECIDED AT THE LAST MINUTE TO GO TO THE WORLD SERIES IN SOUTHHAVEN MISSISSIPPI!  I WAS SO EXCITED FOR THEM! THAT WAS A DREAM OF MINE AND WE NEVER GOT TO GO IN LITTLE LEAGUE SO IT WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE FOR  US ALL! WE MADE ALL THE PLAYERS GOODIE BAGS WITH THEIR OWN BASEBALL CARDS, THIER TRADING PINS, AND  LOT OF OTHER GOODIES! OF COURSE WE HAD TO MAKE OUR "MASCOT" JAX ONE TOO:)!  THEY EVEN CELEBRATED THEIR BIRTHDAYS THERE SO THEY GOT ONE OF THEIR PRESENTS EARLY BECAUSE AUSTIN WANTED A CATCHER'S MIT!  SO HE GOT TO BREAK THAT IN AND AIDEN GOT A X-BOX BASEBALL GAME AND GOT TO PLAY THAT WITH ALL HIS BASEBALL BUDDIES!

"SPEED" and "CATCH"

THIS WAS THE BOYS NICKNAMES FOR ALL STARS THIS YEAR.  THEY CALL AUSTIN "CATCH" BECAUSE HIS FAVORITE THING TO DO IS CATCH AND THEY CALL AIDEN "SPEED" BECAUSE HE IS FAST!  I DON'T KNOW WHERE HE GETS HIS SPEED FROM BUT THE LITTLE BOOGER IS FAST!

MOMS VS THE BOY'S

 

THIS WAS HILARIOUS!  THE BOYS WERE TALKING SMACK ALL PRACTICE BEFORE WE STARTED OUR GAME AND BY THE END OF THE GAME THEY WERE ALL CRYING!  WE WERE OKAY MAYBE THIS WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA:)!  THEY DID NOT EXPECT US TO BE THAT GOOD AND REALLY GET THEM OUT BUT WE DID!  I KNOW BAD MOMMIES BUT IT WAS FUNNY AND THEY DID HAVE FUN WATCHING US PLAY!  I THINK THEY WERE PRETTY PROUD OF US:)!
