ball season

 Baseball/Softball season runs June and July for us thru the YMCA.  It is fairly laid back and the kids seem to enjoy it.  This is after PJ's final game, nothing like waiting till the last minute for a not so great team picture....
Then you have the girls' team photo which was not obtained until the end of season swim party! ugg, fail. None the less the girls went undefeated for the 2nd year in a row. Way to go Wolves!! Maggie played on Kayla's team this year per our choice, trying to save on running kids too many directions. Having never played before Maggie did great and really improved a lot! Next year Kayla and team moves on, however Maggie will have to join another team but I think she liked it enough that she will be happy to play again.

 I did not order pictures of the kids but took them myself instead. Not too shabby for just backyard pictures on the way out the door! Makayla 11, PJ 6 and Maggie 9.

 Some batting pictures, a little action.  Very determined looks on all of their faces.

 on the field... the girls REALLY pass as sisters when dressed alike and have their hair done the same. look at PJ, he is just so cute! He is really ready to play REAL ball, with outs, points and innings... maybe next year buddy!

Maggie is getting ready to bat and Makayla is offering a few words of encouragement. This was taken at the first game and it was very sweet to watch the protectiveness of the big sister. I think they both really enjoyed being on the same team this summer!

 Grandma was even in town a couple weekends and we were able to enjoy watching a few games together. Of course one weekend was super HOT and the other one we got completely rained on!
