Mudcats 2010

John and I have played slo-pitch with a great group of friends for many years. This was the first year that we did not enter a team into the Red Deer league. This year too many of the people on our team either have kids or are pregnant, so we decided to enter a weekend tournament instead.

We found one in Rocky Mountain House and decided to camp. I was a little (okay a lot) nervous about taking the boys out camping, but we had SO. MUCH. FUN!

We got out the coolers on Thursday night after the boys had gone to bed. When they woke up and found them on Friday morning they were in love! The coolers may even be more fun than the vacuum!

Here is Matthew helping us with the cooler.

When we arrived at the campsite Bennett came in the Acadia to say hi to the boys. He then went down the row, licked each of their feet, and then their faces! HAHAHA!!! He was playing kitty!

Here was the inside of one of the coolers...different bottles than coolers in previous years!

Here are the fellas playing inside the trailer when we first got up.

Each time we got to the diamonds the boys would sit in their strollers and watch for about 10-15 minutes before they wanted out to play...such a bonus because usually as soon as the stroller stops they want out right now!

Some of the kiddos out playing.

The boys have been walking for a little while now...this weekend they started running. SO CUTE!

Daddy and Luc, I love this picture :)

Uncle G was a huge help with the boys when our players were out in the field! Thanks G!

The boys also loved the broom! These guys love cleaning supplies as much as their Daddy! We are going to have the cleanest house on the block!

I wasn't going to put this picture up but look at how many kids are in that one little corner of the shot! You could always figure out where our team was playing by all of the strollers and kids on the sidelines.

Lucas ready to play ball!

The boys climbed in and out of this stroller for probably half an hour. Here is Bennett helping Nathan get out.

This is how you turn a double stroller into a triple :)

Nathan in the jumper, check out those jibs!!! (teeth hahaha)

Lucas and Aunty K cooking up some Sunday Breakfast.

Friends Forever!

We ended up losing by one run in the semi-finals and then the third place game got rained out. All in all we had a FANTASTIC time with some FANTASTIC friends!
