Fun AI for Baseball

 As a pre-hype for the next baseball game it gives player highlights and it starred BB without realizing he's no longer there.  It was a fun recap of his very short Fall season.

Final Games

 It's been so fun watching BB and Little Guy play on their baseball teams these last couple of years.  Both of them got to pitch on their final game.

Little Guy's team all signed a baseball for him. BB has been with the Rizzly Bears since the very beginning, so it was extra hard to say goodbye.  They had a going away party for him and he loved it.

BB found out there's an 8th grade team at school in NY, so he's excited to try out in the Spring.  We'll just need to find Little Guy a new team.

Sporting KC

 We've been missing the World Cup around here, so the boys wanted to go to their very first soccer game.  Sporting KC isn't doing great this year, but they pulled out a tie against St. Louis.

It was a fun night.  We even ran into one of my students and her family.  

Fall Ball

 The boys' baseball teams have been lovely, and have let the boys play on the team for the couple of weeks we're still in town.  They're so excited they get to play.  In his first game back this Fall Little Guy got a huge automatic double when it bounced over the fence.  It was almost a home-run.  

BB was starting pitcher with 3 up and 3 down in the first inning.  He was pretty happy with his pitching.  They won 12 -2.

Melting and Driving

 The boys chose the hottest day of the year to watch the San Francisco Giants play against the Royals.  Even the shade they were melting.  

In the other news, Little Lady has her license.  She doesn't want to drive, but her older brother is leaving for college soon, so she doesn't have much choice.  The irony is that she's a cautious and good driver.  

España!!!!!

We were SO excited when Spain won the World Cup!!!  It was so fun to watch them play through the tournament.  They played beautifully!

Double Tournament

 We were supposed to be driving down to Oklahoma tonight, but the boys both won their tournament games to be in the championship games.  And of course, they at the same exact time, so we're switching off who see which game.  BB had a trophy ceremony before the game for being 1st place in the league this season. It's pretty incredible that 5 seasons ago they were in dead last place in the league and tonight they celebrated being in 1st place.  They took a picture of the original guys from the team.

 

The outcome of the tournament was split.  BB's team lost 8-11 and Little Guy won 11-8.  Little Guy and BB both got a sweet double.  

Those dirty pants say it all!

More Baseball

 Seriously, I feel like all we do is baseball in June.  BB and Little Guy are having great seasons though, so I suppose you can't complain too much.  They seriously love it.  The regular season is almost over and the tournament begins at the end of the month.

Comings and Goings

 June is a bit of a random month: from birthday parties to church luaus.  The boys also completed a hitting camp.  BB hates T work, but it's good for him.

Girl's Camp/High Adventure

 This year the guys and girls went together to Arkansas for High Adventure and Girl's Camp.  They had all kinds are adventures.  Little Lady went rock climbing, and really stretched herself with her fear of heights.  It was awesome to see her challenge herself.  BB went mountain biking for the first time and got his tire stuck between rocks.  He went flying and got some crazy bruises and scratches.  He also came home with a fabulous sunburn.  

This is Little Man's last high adventure.  He missed roughing it, but he still had a great time.

On the way back they went to the Bentonville, Arkansas temple.
