Giggles

This morning while getting ready for work, Samuel went to John Michael's room to entertain while I finished up. I was listening through the baby monitor and loved hearing Samuel making his brother laugh. They were both laughing, playing, and enjoying each other. We are so blessed to have two healthy, happy boys. We are done with baseball! The world series was this past weekend and we had a great time. I say we finished up just in time to avoid the 100 degree temperatures this week. Samuel was sad to be finished and he will miss his team mates. Only one other boy on his team goes to his school so he doesn't have much interaction, other than at the ball field, with the others. They had a blast playing and swimming at the hotel during the three day stay. We had the entire 6th floor of the Homewood Hampton Inn to ourselves and it's likely to never be the same. Hall Ball was a huge hit with these seven year olds and many lasting friendships were made. They were already talking about Fall Ball at Kentuck when the weekend came to a close.

Fourth of July Fun


This was taken at Sunshine Pointe on the fourth of July. John Michael enjoyed playing in, and eating, the sand while Samuel enjoyed swimming in the lake and jumping off the pier and was not available for photos. Too busy for that! We all had a great time and enjoyed the fireworks.

Northport 7-Year Old Americans - 4th in the State

Go Northport Americans - #14





Here are some pics from the District tournament last weekend in Adamsville. Samuel is playing catcher for the first time and loves it. Our State tournament is this weekend here at Kentuck. We are playing Friday at 11:30 AM so if you have nothing else to do on your 4th of July come on out! Samuel was really glad to be playing early in the day so we can still make the firework show at Sunshine Pointe.
