Baseball season for the summer of 2015 ended for us over the weekend.  Aiden had his final game last Wednesday.  He enjoyed T-ball quite a bit this year especially because several of his friends were on his team.  John and I are pretty excited because we only have one more season of T-ball left (for Finn, that is).  While T-ball is fun for the kids, if you are a parent then you know it can be painfully SLOW.

Luke and Liam finished up their regular season games on Wednesday as well and then played in an 8 and under tournament over the weekend.  Our first game was Friday night when we faced the A's and we won so we played a second game that night against the Mets.  The boys were pretty excited to play in the late game since they got to play under the stadium lights!  We all attended the game and surprisingly Finn made it for both games and was quite entertaining.

After winning the second game on Friday night, we played Saturday afternoon in the championship game against the White Sox.  It was a pretty cool thing to watch as they announced all the names of the players, sang the national anthem, etc...  We ended up losing by one run, but the boys really played well.  It was quite impressive to see how much they improved in their hitting, catching, and throwing over the season.  Each of the players also had a much better understanding of the game by the end of the season.
