CJ had a double header last night to wrap up his baseball season for this year. Very hot in the sun from 5 - 8:45 PM. BJ enjoyed playing with this young fella - Star Wars. Then he had some blueberry bread and juice. How darling are those little freckles on his cheeks? I had to include that picture.
Topher hit THREE home runs in the first game of the night. Fantastic hard hits over the outfield heads. He was ecstatic, as was his mother! I won't dare post the video b/c you hear this crazy woman screaming at the top of her lungs to "keep running" (ha ha!) If you come and visit us, I promise I'll let you see the hits with the sound muted:)
The second game CJ surprised me by stepping up to plate and hitting left handed. I loved it! So bold. He's been practicing with us when our family goes out to play, and he's been practicing with the Wii baseball, but he's never done it in a game. He hit twice left handed and got a base hit both times. Not a bad way to end the season. Last year he ended the season by making all three outs in the last inning, two of which were from a double play. You guys probably think we're absolutely crazy!
I told the boys we should celebrate afterward with a trip to BaskinRobbins, which we're going to do after I pick them up from summerschool today. Benny has his heart set on the rainbow sherbert. This always makes me think of Granddad for some reason:) I remember him eating the orange sherbert...
Now, on to soccer!
Or should I say, on to birthday, and then soccer! We can't wait for grandma and grandpa to arrive in a three days! The boys are beside themselves!!!
