Every year over the July 4th week we have an annual softball game. There are 4 teams that rotate and play, and in the end the 2 teams with the most runs each bat once through their line-up, and the winning team receives the winning ball.
Eliott played this year, and we were pretty impressed with his batting skills! Must have been all that t-ball practice that he had this summer:)
This is the crowd that came together this year to play. We play the game each year in honor of our nephew, Jared, who passed away from cancer.
Adi was very busy playing with the puppies, and reading stories.
Chad and I ended up on the same team!
Eli was up to bat again.
Hanging out with his buddies, Jared and Jacob, between the innings.
Families sponsor the bases, and supply them with an adult treat and a kid treat. Between each inning we sent the kids around to all of the bases to collect their treats!
Still showing off the tatoo from the parade!
Adi and her friend, Kasey!
I think these 2 were a little sugared-up!!!
3 MVP balls were given out at the end of the game. My mad catching skills earned me one of them! Pretty surprising considering this is the one time each year that I actually play softball!! Hubby was proud of me- I could tell:)
Looking back at these pictures has me already looking forward to all of the family, fun, and friends that the July 4th holiday brings. Too bad we need to wait another whole year for it!
Time to switch gears and start planning a wonderful birthday bash, and looking forward to a wedding that our whole family is in!
