Grandma

This week the kids and I went to visit Grandma Donna.  

Her 91st birthday will be tomorrow!

We hadn't seen her in a little while.

Happy Birthday Grandma Donna - hope you have a wonderful day!

All Stars

 All 3 boys made the All-Star teams!  Eli played 2 tournaments last week.  One was rained out before completion and the 2nd one was this past weekend.  He did well.  It's difficult at the 8U level because there are rules that they have not played all year long that are in effect for tournament play!  

He played Short Stop, 3rd and Outfield and did well though. His batting wasn't his best, but he did well - and He had fun!

This past Saturday we had 6 games in 1 day!  Talk about crazy!

But these 3 look great in their All-Star uniforms!

Love these Adkins boys!

It was a long day and a hot humid one too, but the boys did well!  Ronnie pitched and had 6 good innings.  Nathaniel did a fantastic job in the field and Eli did well too!  All 3 boys were exhausted after a long day of games!  

Love watching them play and I hate missing their games.  

Have a feeling there will be more and more of multiple games at the same time! 

 

Here Eli and Maddie are watching the big boys!  Maddie borrowed a Bat Boys shirt for the tournament!

Didn't get a picture of the Pee Wee All-Star team, but here is the Little League team.  The boys have played with these boys for 5 years now!  Good group of guys and fun to watch!

 

So now we have one more Little League tournament this weekend and then we can wrap up the 2015 Baseball Season!  

Next year we will add softball into the mix....let the craziness continue!

R3 and Nate - Little League

I'm behind a little, but last week was the end of the boys first year of Little League.  The season didn't end like they had hoped, but they both did fantastic!  

Both the boys really did well with pitching this year.  Ronnie has some amazing skills when it comes to pitching and I honestly don't think that is just bias!  

His batting was not his best year, but still good!  I'm proud of him.  During the final tournament game last week he faced all 10 batters in 3 innings and struck out 7 of them!  He was on!  Only 1 batter even made it to 1st :)  Excellent job on the mound!

It was fun that his Daddy coached them again too!  I love watching all 3 of them on the field!  They make a good team!

Then there is Nathaniel, who is actually one of the youngest in the whole league.  He is 10 playing in the 12U league!  And he does great!  He pitched some and dominated most nights!  But his fielding, WOW - love watching him at Short Stop!

 

 They both love the game, and love being on the field - and me...well I just love cheering them on!

We make a good team!

 

 Super proud of the boys - Now we are on to All-Stars - all 3 made the All-Stars this year!  So 2 more weeks of ball around here!
