June 2015 - Smyrna Blue are the Little League STATE CHAMPS!

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!!  Will's Smyrna Blue 9 year old team are the Little League STATE CHAMPS.   We spent the weekend in Warner Robins, GA playing baseball.  The hotel, bus, their fans, their teammates, and the hotel pool are close seconds to winning it all!  They had a ball...

The Smyrna teams rolled into Warner Robins with a bus...

Before the boys left Smyrna they collected dirt from their home field and they threw the dirt on the fields where they played in Warner Robins.  They brought their home field with them....

Getting fired up.... After the pool play games at the regular Warner Robins Little League fields, the final championship game was at the Southeast Regional Headquarters field.  It's a replica of Williamsport and was such a treat to get to play in.

One of Smyrna Blue's biggest fans...

After the boys secured their spot in the championship game...they went to the fields where they 

would play the next day for the State Championship to check it out.

Will is SAFE....

June 2015 - Sam's District Tourney

Sam's District tournament was hosted at our park ...  it was so fun to watch the games.  Sam had the entire family here for his games.   Smyrna Red went 1-1 and looked strong.   I was so proud of my Slugger Sam!

The "walk" down to the fields... such tough boys!  Sam loved having his Dad coach the team.

Rainy afternoon at the ballfield - all the stinky boys pile into my car....Phew!

June 2015 - Happy 10th Birthday Will!

We have been so caught up in baseball these days - there wasn't much of a chance for a big 10th birthday celebration.   Although, I'm not sure there is much more than a 10 year old boy would want than to be playing an All-Star game on his birthday with some of his best buds.  Our family was in town for the boys games so we were able to celebrate together.  Will was so thrilled to get a new bat and bat bag for his birthday.  I promised Will that we would have a party later in the summer - turns out he took a few friends to White Water for the day in early August.  : )

June 2015 - Ready to Play!

The boys were ready to begin their All-Star Run - Sam for Rookie Smyrna Red and Will for 9U Smyrna Blue.  Go Smyrna All-Stars!  Daddy was able to head coach Sam's team and help out with Will's team!  What a Summer!

May 2015 - ALL STAR BOYS!

I could not be a prouder mom!  Both boys were named to Smyrna All-Star teams this year.  Sam was named to the 7/8 year old Smyrna Red Team and Will was named to the 9 year old Smyrna Blue Team!  This extends our baseball into the summer but we could not be more excited and proud of our little sluggers.

May 2015 - Turner Field

We enjoyed a day at the Braves Game with Smyrna Little League. We were able to walk on the field before the game...more baseball fun!

April 2015 - More baseball

Will just too cool for school...  warming up before a game!

Slugger Sam!

 Catcher Will!

April 2015 - Katie's ballet show

Katie had a final ballet show for the year... she's quite the performer!

April 2015 - Happy 8th Birthday Sam!

Sam had 3 of his best buds from school come over for a Minecraft spend the night party.  We went bowling and then the boys spent the rest of the evening playing video games like boys love to do....

They did take a little break and play football in the road.  : )

The birthday boy...

 Stampy cake!
