Happy Father's Day!

Most of our summer Sundays are baseball-centric, and Father's Day was no different this year.  Jackson and the Eagles were playing in Mansfield at Big League Dreams and ready to win it all.

We had lunch with my dad first, though, and were able to celebrate him and Jared.

An hour later, we had arrived at the coolest ballpark in the metroplex.

Since the Eagles had won both of their games the day before, they didn't have to play their first game until that afternoon.  Hallelujah for no 8am game!
Daddo was ready to see some good baseball.

Game 1 started off well when Jackson hit a triple!  He got a single the next time and by then the Eagles were rolling.

Love my #7.

Our boys won the first game and advanced to the semifinal.

Jackson played some fierce defense at 3rd base...

and ran the bases so well. He came in so hard that he almost slid over the bag.  Safe!

Jake pitched well...

and the Eagles won that game pretty handily!

By the time the sun was going down, the boys were warming up to win the championship game.  The dads were cooling down with some nice refreshments.  Cheers!

Once again, J hit the ball hard and got another triple!

His defense was solid, too, whether at 3rd base...

 

or over at 2nd.

A few minutes after 9:00 that night, the Eagles won the game, beating Midway Elite 9-4!

All the dads were SO happy!

 

Our family was exhausted, but super proud of Jackson and his teammates.

Another gold ring from a majors tournament.  This kid loves to win.

Happy Father's Day, Jared! 
You really are the best of the best, and we're so glad you're ours.
