Fall Ball

The Cubs have had another productive fall season.  They have learned a lot over the past few months and are ready for real competition to begin this spring.  Jackson played first base and was a heckuva fielder, catching almost anything thrown his way.  We were most proud, though, of how well he started hitting the ball about half-way through the season.  His whole team really came alive at the plate and had a great season. 

J man got the game ball for the second to last game.  He was so proud and it's now in his display case above his bed.  Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most to these kids.

These 12 boys came to play every game this season.  We are so thankful that they also had a great group of dads that were there every game to coach them.  Thanks Coaches, Larry, Larry, Carlos, Brian and Jared!  The boys could not have better coaches to lead them.

We love the Cubs!  Silliness and all!

To properly celebrate the end of the season, we had their team party at Napoli's last night.  The boys had a blast and they got to thank each of their coaches, too.  Now we rest up for the spring.  And just think, by that time, Jackson will have a two month old baby sister there to cheer him on.  Oh my!  I better make sure she's got a cute Cubs outfit to wear, just like her big sister.
