{What if}......I LOVE pictures.

{This just about sums up my summer so far}.....spending time with Mr. Naughty Little Man.  Never ever in my life have I met a kid that can drop..break..or spill anything he touches.  I love this kid even if he sometimes makes me CRAZY.

{Consider yourself might LUCKY}....if you get to play first base in machine pitch. Who doesn't like a little action. The little man sure does. 

{and just like that}.....his high school years are over. Possibly some of the best years of your life if you ask me. 5/21/15 a day to remember as the years go by.  He graduated with a lot of great friendships and teachers, a 3.7 GPA and many baseball games under his belt.

{The CV baseball season}....is in full swing and we are struggling. The boys are frustrated, the coaches are frustrated and this mom is frustrated. This is our year boys, what is going on? We started the Region 9 season splitting with Cedar, big Keat was hurt this game and I think we would have beat them twice with him in our line-up. Next, we moved on to Snow Canyon we had them beat the first time and they had a little rally and came back to beat us. One of our kids was ineligible, sheesh we can't buy a break.  We ended up beating them at home. This week we played Pine View and we really did not play good, our ace pitcher Brinkerhoff has not been on his game (back injury) and he was not able to pitch this week. The boys had a big sleepover in the batting cage last night after getting swept by Pine View, they talked, had a little nightime ritual and hopefully they will be ready to go get a win on Tuesday. Keep your eye on the prize boys and the BALL.

{It is HARD playing}....your cross-town rival. It is even harder losing to them, especially when kids on the team have played together or against each other for years, like these boys. They both have a love and respect for the best game on earth (baseball...duh). In the years to come you don't remember the winning or the losing but you sure remember the friendships made along the way. Last time for #4 playing on the Cedar Redman Field. Region 9 baseball is tough, but it ROCKS. What do you think about our "Ole School Uniforms"...I love them.  Jaden Black....Ryker Tom  {3.17. 2015}  Thanks Kim Hansen for the pictures. Life is flying by....

{2015 baseball season is in}.....full swing. We have had a little bit rocky start with our pre-season this year. We have played some nationally ranked teams and have found ourselves sitting at the bottom of the barrel. This week we started region play and our first game was against our cross town rival team...Cedar Redmen, both teams are always pretty good and it usually ends up being a barn-burner. Today was no different and it was a 2-2 ballgame until the sixth inning when Cedar was able to pull away for a 7-3 win. I took my lucky green shamrock coin in my pocket hoping that with a little luck we could pull it off.  It was St. Patricks Day after all. Jaden (#4) hit the ball hard with a double and then scoring. Ty Nielson pitched an awesome game, and it really was fun. Go get the win on Friday CV.... Thanks for the pictures Kim Hansen.
