Bye-Bye Baseball, Hello Swimming Season!

On Saturday we had our end-of-the-season little league party with the team.  It always seems like the season comes and goes so quickly. It is so fun to watch how the boys improve in such a short amount of time.  We had an awesome team this year. Lots of parental support, no "crazy" people (well, if you don't count us, haha!), and the boys all WANTED to be there. Nobody was forced to play ball. The season was so much fun.  We had the team party at the clubhouse where one of our teammates lives.  It was a great set up.  Of course my boys ran straight for the pool the minute we got there!

 Finally I got Connor to sit down and eat. Of course he chose the cupcake! He has such a sweet tooth, it is crazy.  He didn't want a hot dog or a hamburger, he wasn't hungry for that.  Oh, but offer him a cupcake and he is good to go!
 After that he inhaled about half of a watermelon. Seriously.  He kept eating and eating. I had to cut.him.off!
 Here is Coach Daryle aka Dad giving Travis his trophy. He made the comment about him being like a pig pen out there. No matter what Travis believes he MUST come home with a filthy uniform.  Playing catcher helped him out with this. He no longer needs to slide into home on a walk just to get dirty!
 Proud Coach!
Only a few days left of school.  I can't wait!  Next week we can just sit back and relax.  I am looking forward to a break around here.  A break and unstructured time is just what the doctor ordered. 

If you know me on Facebook then you know our other "news".  Be on the lookout for some excitement in the Hawes household next week!  (hint: woof, woof!)
