Baseball!

I don't think that we have ever had such a rough baseball year! The weather has been extremely uncooperative. We had one game prior to May 3rd and then a double header Saturday morning. Pictures are of William at bat and behind the plate. His position seems to be catcher this year. We managed to get in a game last night as well (home after 9:30pm - Yawn).

I believe we a 1 win and 3 losses for the season. Been tough to get any practices in as well. We really haven't had more than one practice a week. The other Babe Ruth team seems to get them in like clockwork. Teams are pretty large for Babe Ruth with 17 and 18 on each team. Makes it harder to get playing time.

Garage Sale !

Yep - we had one on April 27th. The weather cooperated for the most part. We originally were going to have it on Saturday (which was sunny and beautiful - the 1 day in the last 6 mos) but William was supposed to have a baseball game in Seaside right in the middle of the sale. Well, the game was cancelled but we had an ad in the paper. We did alright with most things selling. William worked the sale throughout the day and we told him he could have most of the proceeds but he had to work it and setup and cleanup. Most of the items were his to begin with. The boys are looking at selling the Kawi's. Willia wants a laptop

and will use the money from his bike to purchase one. Bill wants something street legal (it is specific but I don't know exactly what make/model/year).
