Summer = Baseball (in our house)

Austin posing in front of this gorgeous backdrop (not a bad view from baseball bleachers, huh?) Cascade mountains, North Bend, WA.

Andrew got lots of opportunities to pitch this summer!! (played in 5 tournaments). DJ played in several tournies too with his 11U select team, 'The Hawks,' (this is their 3rd summer playing together)

Coach Dave and team before the game. They've been practicing 7 days a week since June 15th and here we finally are.... Game 1 on July 4th.



This has become a nightly routine before a game-day... DJ laying out his stuff (even the sunglasses!). Avoids the last minute.. "Mom! where's my...?" a dozen times before heading out the door.


Ahhh... here's a close-up of our All-Star at Dodd Field, Issaquah, WA

  1. You have such adorable athletes in your house! I love how DJ lays out his uniform the night before. It was fun being at a couple of games and watching the boys play this summer...

  2. I got to witness that gorgeous view in action! What a fun summer past time - love those baseball-playing nephews of mine!

    I had no idea Dave practiced them 7 days a week to get ready for all stars. Whew!
