Champions!

It seemed as though this past weekend was spent almost exclusively at the baseball field watching/helping coach Drew's Babe Ruth team. They were playing in their end-of-season tournament, and it was exciting because the boys were playing really well. On Saturday we played at 4:00 and won rather easily, making us undefeated in the preliminary rounds of the tournament. That meant we were the #1 seed and played the #2 seed from our side of the bracket in the semi-finals. This game was on Sunday at noon. After one of our best games of the year, we won and earned a spot in the 4:00 championship game. We learned we were playing our vaunted rival Sheldon. We beat Sheldon in the pre-season, but they beat us during the regular season, and they had gone undefeated since we first beat them. It was a tense game, but the lead we built up in the early innings stood up and we won! The boys were very excited (so were the parents!) and it was a fun way to spend my Father's Day. It was a nice culmination to a fun season.
