Fall Ball 2007

Jacob, Joel and Eli have kept pretty busy this fall with their ball games. There are no "Couch Potatoes" in this family. We have a lot of fun going to their games, but I have to say it is getting harder and harder to keep up with them. Eli got to play soccer this year for the first time. He really had a good time. He liked having a shirt and being on a team . We had some beautiful weather this year and it was nice and warm. We can't wait until spring when Eli will get to play t-ball.

Jacob and Joel played on the same fall ball baseball team. They had a good time playing on the same team for the first time. Fall ball was a lot more relaxed. The coaches let the boys play a lot of different positions. Joel was the youngest on the team, but he kept right up there with the "guys". Jacob got to pitch and he loved that. At one game, Jacob pitched and Joel was the catcher. (I have to say I like going to the baseball games the best. There is just something about sitting out in the field watching the boys play that I really like)
