In the spring, our family worships at the church of baseball.
I mean that with no disrespect, and with my tongue firmly in my cheek.
But in a sense, it's true. Baseball brings out the best (and sometimes the worst!) in people. For us, Little League season is truly a family affair.
John coaches.
Ben plays.
I keep score.
Kinsey (who used to play but now says NEVER AGAIN) works in the snack shack and wanders around taking random photos.
And Callie? She digs in the dirt and sand with a stick. LOVE IT.
Go Cubs.
How cool that everyone gets to be involved! Even making the best of of some dirt and a stick ;)

I love this post. It even makes me want to go out there and watch Ben play! :)

Looks like a grand time.
Can't multitask and knit while keeping score?! :)

We worship in that same synagogue, sister ;}. I have one coach, one baseball player (pitches, catches) and one softballer (who has a swift bat and fields at first). Me I have needles and a camera! This is my knitting season!

Unfortunately baseball is not a German sport, but we do know Willi Wonka! My children love the movie with Johnny Depp. Didn't know, though, that Wonka choclate really exists. (And I love Charlie Sheen in the movie The Cleveland Indians. He looks so cute with those glasses.)

Every Sunday we're doing the same exact thing. Thankfully itty bitty tball is only a couple of innings though.
You're family is so adorable! The family that plays together, stays together!
