Summerslam tournament

Our first tournament of 3 for the next 3 weekends was this weekend. Summerslam sponsored by Thunder. We had our first game Friday night (a loss) but Gracie had a GREAT game!! If she would only be aggressive going after the ball and actually throw it instead of chasing the runner down! (which occassionally does work!) Since we lost our first game, we had to play at 9 Saturday morning! =( We played against the swing sisters and won!






Getting ready to bat!




Here she is on defense! doesn't she look excited!




Our next game was at 12 so we had some time to kill............face painting...........


Everyone on our team was waiting on Margaret!






Strike a pose!





This was so a waste of $1! but I couldn't let my baby not get hers done too!
















Bean bag toss...............coach jay vs. coach jerred............




It's getting hot...........hot............hot






We ended up playing a total of 4 games saturday!! Our girls fought their way out of the losers bracket to finish 3rd! We are soooo proud of these girls!


Elana, Gracie, Jaylin, Abigail, Riley, Maddie, Sophia, Madi, Abby, Brittyn, and Macey!






Woo_hoo!!! 3rd place might as well be first to these girls!!
We ended our day of games and went and ate a little dinner, went and picked up the little monkey, and finally home by 10:00! Next weekend we get to do it all over................

Treats and a visitor........

Thanks to Amy at http://www.faith-love-hope.com/ , we made some fruity popsicles. I think they turned out pretty good! We did watermelon, strawberries, and pineapple juice because that's what we had. We will be making more fruit popsicles this summer! Especially since I found popsicle molds that actually pull the popsicle out still attached to the stick!


Jadyn the popsicle goes in your mouth, not your finger! Lol!

Helping daddy mow...............

and for our visitor.............we have several apple trees in our yard. They are green sour apples that really are too good unless you bake with them. Oh, and the deer like them!







Hope you all have a good weekend! We have a softball tournament this weekend............it's going to be HOT!
