All-Stars - Summer Catch Up part 3

We finished our All-Star season last weekend.  Between swim and baseball, we've been very busy.  Here are a few pictures from the season.
One of my favorite pictures of Will.  I love the look on his sweet face!

So proud of our MVP
Will got MVP of the 2013 Battle on Green River Tournament
He was chosen by the people who hosted the tournament.  Great Job Will!


Had to throw in a pic of Walker.  Here is Walker batting for the Parent/Coaches vs. All-Stars Game they played one day at practice.  They had so much fun, and Walker was glad he got to be part of it!




And as always, we must take a goofy picture.

Swim Catch Up Post

We've had a VERY busy summer, and LOVED every bit of it!  Hard to believe school is starting very soon.  Will and Walker were both part of the Rays swim team again this year.  And since they are early birds we opted for the 8:15 am practice M-Th.  They have both improved so much!  Here are a few pictures from random meets.  Saturday(the 27th) was the conference and swim will be finished for a while.  Pics from conference coming soon.

 
Walker with his RAY on his back.  Now he's ready to swim!
Cousin Alexa also swam this year.  These two are a mess!




Will and Walker both got Star Performer Ribbons at the LWC swim meet.  Great Job Guys!  Mom and Dad are so proud of you both!!!

Summer Catch Up - starting with WKU baseball camp

July 8-11th Will got to participate in the WKU baseball camp.  He had a great time, learned more about baseball, and had fun with his friends.

Walker asked me a million times, "I get to do this next year, right?"  So he relaxed, enjoyed the very hot weather, and learned some baseball from the sidelines.

 Will's friends that were also at the camp;  Clay, Weston, Will & Benjamin.  They always want to take a silly picture.




And Will's favorite part of the camp was the last day when they practiced their sliding technique on the slip and slide.

Demarcus Cousins Elite Skills Basketball Camp

Last week (June 26-28) Will had the opportunity to participate in the Demarcus Cousins Basketball Camp at Rocky Hollow.  Walker was too little for the camp but he got in on the pictures, autographs, and played a little basketball.  Here is a link to a news article on the camp.

Weston and Will after completing their first day.


Q & A with Julius Mays, Demarcus Cousins and Jeff Shepherd.


Picture time with Shepherd, Cousins & Mays

This picture cracks me up.  Julius was in the hallway as we were leaving the first day and Walker ran up to him and said "Give me a high five".  Julius was our all time favorite at the camp!

Playing offense.

Walker got to get in the autograph line.  Here he is with Cousins




These next two pictures are for future reference.  Demarcus' brother, Jaleel, came to camp each day as well.  May be a future star. 


We believe this was Cousins limo.

And of course the Moms had to get a picture also.  Julius had the best personality!

It's Officially SUMMER!

We celebrated the official first day of summer by going over to swim with some friends.
We hadn't been in the pool very long when the boys noticed this uninvited guest...it was the biggest frog/toad I've seen...it was huge!

Carson, Walker, Mason & Will swam and swam and swam!  They had a great day!
