Weekend of Baseball

We didn't have any football this weekend, so we were finally able to go and watch Grant play fall baseball. The weather was awesome, the outcome of the games.....not so much.

Freddy at Freddy's

We stopped in Freddy's this evening for a little frozen treat, and got to meet the man himself.
Super sweet man visiting with his customers handing out his dollar bills. Made our icecream treat even sweeter!

Fair Weather Fan

Yep, that's right.......I missed all this action. After getting up at 5:00am for Mitch's 8:30 game in Topeka, I decided to skip the KSU game and lay low at home. After seeing all these pictures pop up on Facebook, pretty sure I made the right call. However, that meant that my husband was dealing with Mitch, who is scared to death of this sort of thing. They waited it out at home, since we live so close to stadium, then went back to enjoy what turned out to be a great day and game.

Are you ready.....

For some Football........or, to believe that I have finally posted again. I know, I have slacked once again. Mitch's tackle football team is in full swing now.

Scott is coaching Mitch this year. It is a little different starting over with a young group after coaching 6th graders last year, but he still seems to find the simple pleasures in it!

Getting in the swing of things

The boys haven't been able to golf all summer with baseball on their schedule. And after spending the day with them on the golf course, I can see why the two sports don't go hand in hand. Grant was able to ditch his baseball swing a little sooner than Mitch. We ended up in the wrong fairway a couple of times and dug up some dirt. The boys both ended hole #9 with great shots, so it was time to call it a day! Warming up before our tee time.

Scott continues to hit the ball long and straight. Really annoying coming from someone that can't hit the ball farther than my kids. What is the great pleasure in chasing a little white ball all over the place, anyways??

Getting a few pointers from Dad.

Finished. Scott turned his score in.......the other two.....not so much!

Lounging

This little guy was enjoying the rays on our back deck.

Winding down from Baseball

With baseball over for the season....well, summer ball anyway. Fall ball will start shortly.... Grant was able to play in the National Championship in the MAYB basketball league. It was a lot of fun to watch teams that play basketball all year round. A lot of the boys down there were taller than Scott! And these are 6th graders.

Scott found himself a job. Personally, I think he volunteers to get away from his loud wife in the stands.

This is how a team from Texas travels. They know how to do it right.

Pretty sure Mitch had more fun at the hotel.
