An awesome game!

"Down and ready" at first base!





This hit turned into a triple!


Caleb had a game this morning and it was awesome! Now I'll be honest, sometimes these games aren't the most exciting, and an hour and 45 minutes can seem quite long. But today the Tigers were on fire! Caleb had three big hits and got a triple on the first one. In the field he started at first and made two outs. Later he played shortstop and made all three outs for the inning! In the outfield he had a couple of great throws.

Making one of those outs at first.



That boy does have an arm. I still remember going grocery shopping with him when he was about 8 months old. He was sitting in the front of the cart with his pacifier as I was checking out, and he suddenly took that pacifier out and flung it. It landed two checkstands down! The guy bagging groceries brought it back and commented, "Man, that kid's gonna have an arm!" Well, he does. Now don't get me wrong, he wasn't the only star on the team, but he was definitely my favorite!
Check out that smile. He was so proud of his hit!



And he had two little cheerleaders on the sideline, who faithfully attend every game and pay close attention...well, they make it through pretty good. Today Sarah's goal was to practice walking all the way down the chain link fence. She did it. And Emma was great at helping distract her when she got a little tired of waiting. All in all, a pretty good Saturday morning!





I love these kids!

Caleb is so big, I think he looks like your dad. Conner is playing baseball too, it is so fun to watch. Can't wait to hear about his season.

Emma, she looks just like you. What a precious girl, she has grown so much.

Sarah, I think she is a doll, she looks so different from the other two. I can't wait to hear about her personality as it develops.

Here's the latest from our family.
