Softball Champions!!!

Morgan had a great season. She played 2nd base with no errors and batted above 500 the whole season. This team has been together since 2nd grade. They had an undefeated season including the tournament (14-0). They only allowed 5 runs the whole season including the tournament and won the championship game 9-1. Next year begins competitive ball as she enters middle school.

Here are the trophies to prove it...

Ladies night out!

Happy Birthday Betsy!!!

Betsy usually gets a birthday every 4 years because she was born on a Leap year. Morgan and her friend, Jade, decided to throw a surprise birthday party for Betsy and Jade's mom; since her birthday is a day after. They was very surprised. Next year, Betsy turns 10 on Leap year, :)
