The Drama that Surrounds Me!: Our last weekend of baseball...

This weekend was the last weekend of baseball for the season. Jacqui's team "The Storm" had their last game Saturday morning bright and early at 8am - unfortunately they lost. She got a good hit though and scored a run.

After the game they had the closing ceremonies. Each kid came up and got a trophy and then they had a carnival with games and inflatable jumpers for the kids. Cadence was being a complete monster and really needed a nap so one of my friends took her for the afternoon and let her sleep at her house. I was kid free because the other two were off and running around the carnival so I didn't see them for most of the afternoon. Rumor has it Matt was over at the other field Umping for the older kids that were playing a game. Parents were coming up to me telling me that he has picked up a lot of Ski's mannerisms and that he acted just like Ski out there while he ump'd. I'm not sure if that is a compliment or if I should be frightened!!!

The highlight of the day though was when Ski got into the dunk tank. You should have seen the line of people ready to drop him in the water. Jacqui, Matt and I were right up front for our chance to dunk him - which we all did! It was great. We had a really good season though and as busy as we were all the time, we are also disappointed that it's all over.

Jacqui and Matt in line to Dunk Ski!

Now I know why all of her socks have holes in them...

Sunday we had our end of the season team party. Because Ski and Chuck coach together, and a lot of the parents have kids on both the Hooks and the Storm team we decided that it would be easier to have their parties together.

"Go Hooks!!!!"

Jacqui getting her certificate from Coach Chuck. He told everyone that if there was an award for a pitcher that raised their leg so high they almost gave themselves a nose bleed, it would be Jacqui.

Me and the monster baby eating. What a great picture of me...

We decided it would be fun to combine the teams and let the kids play a baseball game together. I learned from watching that game that Jacqui and Matt, even in the middle of a baseball game, will find a reason to fight and scream at each other. Having them so close to each other in the field is not a good thing - especially if one of them makes an error!
