All-Star Game/Party

Adrienne's all star game was a hit and so her season is now officially over (although she told me today she wants to try out for travel ball YIKES!!). Emma has her last game on Sat. morning along with a trophy ceremony and trip to dairy queen and then the James family is FINALLY done with baseball! It seemed to be the season that never ends this year!
Isn't it ironic that we are already signing up for soccer, flag football and fall baseball/softball this week??? I have come to the conclusion that with four kids and three that want to play sports life is just going to be hectic and I just need to face it and go along for the crazy ride!
And speaking of CRAZY, last night was just that. We had two cars full of a total of ten kids who came to see the game last night! What an awesome fan club for Adrienne!
After the game we continued the chaos with even more kids over for a bonfire, night swimming, and sleepovers! What fun, and I must say I feel like my house if party central and although I will admit to being exhausted today I wouldn't have it any other way!

The Scrappers who were picked for the All-star team.

They had a great time together and loved their all-star metals.

Another pitching picture. I can't get enough of these!


The fan club.



Nicole, Anna and Nejwa! All great friends to Adrienne.

Imad and Colin goofing off.



More goofing around after the bonfire.



Josie getting ready to swim.



I got this photo after everyone was done roasting marshmallows. It's nearly impossible to get pictures of the kids around the fire because of having to keep a very watchful eye on William.

Josie and Emma loved night swimming!

Connor and Colin giving each other rides in the inner tubes.

Man, Adrienne looks hard-core in that pitching picture! (You go, girl!!)

Glad your "almost" done with your ball stuff. Good lord, that's a LONG season!!!

I know you were tired today but it's wonderful that Adrienne has such a big, happy fan club!

What a great season for Adrienne! And for Colin and Emma too! So wonderful that they all love sports!

Where are you doing flag football?? I looked for a team for my guys and couldn't find anything local, so we ended up signing up for soccer instead.

I know what you mean Jenny! It is crazy here still too! Let me tell you first hand that travel is more.....everything! (time, money, games, practice) Casey does it pretty much year round in our city. And this fall will be our first season with all 4 kids in sports.....HELP!!!!
