Let The Madness..... Continue

Whew! Baseball season if officially over. Well, kinda. More on that in a minute. Once again, just like last year, Matthew's minor league team finished second. Great season, though. we both had lots of fun. On the other hand, Collin's major league team won it all! 2011 Lewes Little League champions! With a final record of 10-2, we qualified for a one game playoff to determine a champion. The Braves won ( by slaughter rule in five innings) 14-4. Collin really had a great season. We can really see lots of improvement in both the boys' play. Here's a link to the story in the Cape Gazette.

So when I said that the season is over, what I meant was the regular season is over. Both Collin and Matthew were selected to play in all-star tournaments. Collin was selected to play in the
11-12 Pat Knight Invitational All-Star Tournament. Matthew to the 9-10 Delaware District Three All-Star Tournament. Both boys will be representing Lewes, just on different teams at different tournaments. Oh, and I was asked to coach on Collin's team. No rest for the weary. Oh well. They're both super excited, so it's worth it. I'm super excited because there goes our month and a half break between baseball season and football season! YAY! Thanks guys.

So, anyway we're preparing for all that. Trying to keep up with work, trying to keep Aaron wearing his glasses. And I've started receiving report cards from football players already for this season. Now I have to start evaluating each one. Part of my responsibilities for the position I took last winter. Stupid is as stupid does, I guess.

My Father's Day was great. First order of business? Grocery store. Second? Dig up the septic tank and clean the filter so it stops backing up in our yard. Yummy. Nothing says Father's day like when your kids are inside playing Xbox and your outside, ankle deep in poo. Can you feel the love yet? Me too. But I must say it got better after that. Took a short nap. Cooked out on the grill. Had a couple Bud Light Limes. Then just did a lot of nothing until bedtime. So overall, it was good.

So anyway, that's all for now. I'll try to post again soon. Bye!
