Kindergarten Bash

This afternoon Jase had a "Kindergarten Bash" at his school. All of the kids in the 4 year old preschool classes were invited to come. They played games, ate pizza, played on the playground and did other activities. When I pulled up to pick up Jase, all of the kids looked so cute!! They were all in matching T-shirts: "Class of 2012 MWS". It was almost too much for me to handle! First thing Jase said when he got in the car is "I'm in kindergarten now!" He is way too big!!


I'm glad he had a fun time with all his friends at the "bash". Allyson was upset that she was not going. I reassured her that she was going in the morning. :-)

After the party we had to get ready for our game tonight. We were playing a team that has already beat us twice this season, so we were expecting a tough game. We play an hour or 4 innings and at the end of the 3rd inning it was 15-15; we were neck and neck with them.

In the top of the 4th, the other team got their first runner on base. Then the next batter hit a pop-up to our pitcher and he caught it. We are all going nuts in the stands and yelling to throw it to first. Well Jase covers first base like a normal play and our pitcher throws it to first like it was a routine play and what do you know. . . double play!!! It was awesome.

I thought for sure, we have 2 outs and they haven't scored any runs, we're bound to stop them, but we couldn't come up with another out. They ended up getting 5 runs and were up by 5. It was out turn to bat and we did the same by scoring 5 runs in the bottom of the 4th. 20-20 tie ball game. The boys played an awesome game and I am so proud of them. While a win would have been sweet, a tie to this team was just as nice.

Picture is not so great, but here is Jase on 1st base with 2 outs on the scoreboard!
