T-Ball Celebration

The Optimist Club held an end of season celebration for all of the t-ball teams tonight.  Trophies were given out, there was a bounce house and a fire truck came for the kids.

Cooper improved so much this season.  It will be fun to see how he does with machine pitch next year!

Last T-Ball Game 2012

Tonight was the last game of Cooper's t-ball season.  He has been a great player and sportsman.

 Cooper took this picture by himself

What a great year he had!  Next year, he should move up to machine pitch.

One Last Practice

Tonight was the last practice for Cooper's t-ball team for the 2012 season.  They mainly worked on hitting tonight.

Go Team!

T-Ball Practice

Cooper returned to the t-ball field for practice tonight.  It felt like forever since he's been there, but he didn't miss a beat

Daddy/Daughter Dance

Tonight Reagan and Greg attended the annual Father/Daughter Dance at our church.  As usual, I'm not allowed to attend, so there are no photos of the actual dance, but I did get them to agree to take a few pictures before they left!

Check out the pictures from 2011 and 2010.
