Last Game of the Season :(

So sad...we had Everett's last game of the season this morning!  I'm really going to miss baseball!  After the game we had the team party, where Everett was super excited to get his trophy and a baseball signed by his coaches!  His head coach had a ton of great things to say about him, including "he was definitely the best hitter on the team." He's one of the youngest on the team as well so go Everett, you baseball stud!!

And a little brag...one of the coaches was talking to us about how the teams are made as they get older (they draft players based on skill), and he said the heads of league already start following players at this age, and apparently, they were following two of the boys on our team, Everett being one of them!!!!  I think Gary almost started crying.  Proud papa. ;)

I just hope he wants to continue- it's so much fun for us!  I don't want to get my hopes too high though because he is definitely obsessed with hockey, and I'm told I can't FORCE him to play the sport I like best ;)~ so we shall see what sport he sticks with!

So Behind! Summary: Part 1

I'm so behind on the blog! I guess I'll just do some highlights...

Ella keeps losing teeth and so do her friends...

She had another Indian princess camp...

Which means Everett had a fun bowling night with a buddy...

The pool construction is still the hottest topic at school, and Ella and her friends are dying to swim in it!

Everett is still a baseball stud...
But he also started hockey, which I'm afraid might be his true love because he's obsessed!

Summary: Part 2

Ella did a dance with her friends at the talent show this year, which meant tons of practice (that turned into play dates)...
They did so great!

Everett had his "Spring Sing" patriotic performance- so cute!

And Ella received the "Helpful Hands" award at school, which meant she's always prepared and helpful! Sounds about right! ;)
