More Sporting News

Noah's baseball team was eliminated from the post season tournament Friday night. It would be nice if I could say that baseball season was now over for us, but that would be a lie. Noah tried out for the All Stars Team, and it looks like he'll probably be selected. That means two more weeks of practice starting the 18th, another tournament, and more money for an All Star jacket. This is the time of year when all of his sports overlap. Football tryouts are June 16th and 23rd. Basketball camp is June 25-29, and Hoopfest (the world's largest 3 on 3 street basketball tournament) is June 30-July 1 in Spokane. Just writing that down makes me tired. But he loves it all, and there are lots of great families involved who we get to hang out with.

The volleyball team Alyssa coaches had their post season tournament yesterday. They played really well and advanced out of the morning round into the Gold Division. The afternoon did not go as well and they were eliminated in their first afternoon game. Based on points the team finished third out of eight teams.

Forrest got his stitches out Thursday and was back behind the plate Thursday night. His softball team won, and he managed to keep his head away from the ball. I have no sports news to report about myself. I'm just the driver, equipment manager, and chief cheerleader for everyone else.

Forrest and the neighbor are hoping to fell a large, dead pine tree in the neighbor's yard later today. I'll try to take some photos and maybe some video. It might be worthy of sending in to America's Funniest Home Videos.

I'm so glad all we're doing this summer is swimming lessons! I guess we won't be seeing too much of you guys this summer.
