Highlights from Home Run.....

For the past two months, we spent every dry Monday and Friday at the Barendse Park in Hubbard. I gotta say, this was quite a commitment! You know you are not a sports crazy family when mom and dad are actually excited to get rain on Mondays and Fridays....during the start of summer! :) Overall, we had a great time and met some wonderful families. This Christian league is for homeschool families in our area and the Mollala area. It is nice to have all the games and practices for three boys on three different teams take place at the same time. The only challenge was walking my very pregnant body around to watch three different teams!



BJ volunteered to help coach Justin's t-ball team, but then the main coach backed out and BJ was it. He did a great job. Another guy jumped on board to help him and they had a fun time. My favorite things about BJ's experience as a coach...



-the cute little girl who cried at anything and everything




I loved watching this daddy of five boys try to awkwardly comfort her. :)




-the team learning to sing the Ephesians 4:32 song




-watching ornery boys run laps around a tree for being ornery! :)




Go Team Lightning!!!




The playground was lots of fun for J.R. and Judson. And actually, the t-ball team would have rather been there too instead of playing their game. :)









Jared and Jesse did really well. We were impressed with their progress in this first year of being on a team.






Fun times picnicking at the Friday games.





Jesse received the spirit award- the only individual award given-for his team at the end-of-the-season potluck. We were really proud of all three boys. Maybe we will do it again next year...maybe? :)
