Beautiful Weekend

So yesterday was just beautiful outside: sunny, 80 degrees with a breeze. Now I don't really do summer very well because I'm not a fan of sweat or bugs in general, but 80 degrees and low humidity I can totally do.

Works out great that it was the best weather so far this year since Rory had a soccer tournament and Camden  had a baseball game. We ended up spending 4 hours at the soccer field (1 win, 2 losses) and 2.5 hours at the baseball field. I ended up with a fierce sunburn and the kids are both about 3 shades darker.

There is not enough time in this world to worry with photo editing so you get them in all their naked glory. ;)

Let's get this game started already.

Snacktime in between games.

Her crossed legs cracked me up.

Rory and Violet

After scoring the team's only goal last season and starting off the season with several goals, Rory became the goalie so no more goals for her. She was a darn good goalie, though.

Deflecting a goal.

This is what Camden did the entire time. We picked up some classics like Robinhood, The Three Musketeers and Swiss Family Robinson last week at Goodwill, and he has been captivated.

Deflecting another goal. I told you she knew what she was doing.

After a healthy snack between the first two games, it was time to move on to sugar.

Rory and Kyle

Starting to get tired.

Go, Blue Jays.

Trophy time.

Rory was standing on her tiptoes so she would be as tall as Emma. It completely cracked me up that she noticed Emma was taller.

Next up was Camden's baseball game. His poor team has been a bit of Bad News Bears this year. Not completely sure why because they're capable, but with a few exceptions they've played pretty poorly all year. It's hard to watch your kid self-destruct over and over. Camden has been the first baseman, and for whatever reason just can't quite get it together. He practices at home and does great, but I think he gets nervous. We've had good coaches this year, and I know they're frustrated as well. I'm glad that Camden is still having fun, but I'm much too competitive to be happy with this year.

I wonder if he'll ever outgrow this habit.

See what I mean? Clearly, a problem.

Oops. Again.

He catches this every single time at home.

But this was a triple.

We were supposed to finish up baseball this week, but I think we've got 2 more make-up games this week. I always miss it when it's over, but in the middle of the season, it sure seems long!

And that officially ends the season's sports pictures. Aren't you glad?
