State Champs!

Well, Hudson's all-star season is over. They played in 2 tournaments. Their Regional Tournament was the weekend of June 13-15. They lost the first game but then totally dominated every other game and won the whole thing. The last game of the championship they had to play the team that had beat them the first game and they won 22-0! Crazy! They had their State Tournament this past weekend and went undefeated and won that, too! They really have some talented kids on their team. It's crazy what they can do at 5 years old! Hudson had a good time and I think he's sad that his games are over and there's no more baseball (fall ball will start in August!)

Sydney and John Evan came to one of the games on a Saturday.

Hudson and Richard after the game. Richard had just gotten into town from Chandler's tournament to see the Championship game. I missed all but one of Chan's games that weekend but they really didn't play any competition. They won their District tournament and they start their area tournament tonight. Congrats boys!

Go Northport Nationals!!!!!

May and June in Review

Wow...it's been a busy month! Here's a glimpse into what's been going on in our lives. My grandmother, Inez Jones, (dad's mom) passed away on May 20th. She was the last of my grandparents. We went to South Carolina for the funeral. It was a very short and rushed trip but it was good to see everyone and get some pictures of the kids on the front porch swing where I used to spend a lot of time as a kid.
Hudson has his preschool graduation in May. It was a cute program. Caroline, Sydney, and John Evan came. Thanks guys!

Hudson with his wonderful teachers, Ms. Jeanette and Ms. Brittani. They have taught him so much and have been great!
Regular season baseball is over and the boys both had a great year. Chandler's team won first place in the tournament and Hudson's team won second place. Chandler's team did awesome the last several games that they played so it was kind of expected that they win the tournament. Hudson's team lost their very first tournament game and came all the way back through the losers bracket to come in 2nd! They had to beat the team that put them in the loser's bracket twice to win it. They beat them bad the first game but then barely lost the second game. It was intense and very exciting. Richard was so proud of those kids! Chandler and Hudson both made the first string all-star teams so we are busy with practice and tournaments already. It's going to be another fun baseball filled summer.
We were able to go the beach for a couple of days last week. My parents got a house at Panama City for all of us and we just came when we could. Elizabeth and Mary and their families left before we got there but we were able to spend time with everyone else. Chandler went para sailing with my dad, Caroline, Ashley, and Collin. They had a great time and came back with a very entertaining story. I love it when I get to spend time with my family like that! Thanks mom and dad!
