Hangin with the fam

I'll take a break from talking baseball (First place showdown Tuesday night)

Thought I'd post a pic of the fam, at Big Cedar Lake (West Bend), catchin' small mouth and sun fish.

Mets Win

After finishing third in the National Division, my kids' Little League team had some work to do in the tournament.

They won the first round game, and set up a showdown with the Marlins...very good team. They used a 4 run rally to beat us last month.

This did not happen last night. Mets beat the Marlins, 5-2.

We now move on to the 1st place Diamondbacks in the tournament. They are the best team in the league...wish us luck. A little defense, little hitting..and we've got a shot. Hopefully, the Mets are peaking!

KRITTER BOY

Here is my son, Noah. He is quite the kritter kid! He watches all the animal shows on cable..and I think he'll have his own show one day.

He found the brownish frogs that live in Wisconsin. He found them in the widow well, at my in-laws (his Papa and Grandma).

He also found this kritter...a salamander! I didn't know they existed in Wisconsin! I was thinking he'd find something like this in the Amazon. Well, welcome to Amazon, WI

Zoo Birds

Here's Hailey's turn on the blog! My five year-old, with a new friend. We're in the bird exhibit at the Milwaukee County Zoo. Pretty cool, as you get to give them food on a stick.

Only problem was many of the birds were up high. This is Hailey, after I had her on my shoulders for what seemed like forever! Finally, this guy came down.

Lexi's Game Ball

My daughter, Lexi, and her first game ball. She got a hit, scored a run in our win last night. She's wanted to be like her big brother (who had a great game) and now she'll display this one!

Coming up...soccer season for my youngest. Do they give out game balls in soccer???

More New Kid Vid's

Noah's second home run, in Little League of West Allis.

New Kid Video's

You've seen her hit a double in little league! Now, see her at her musical best. My daughter, Alexa! This is called, "Tricky Twinkle" at her mini concert.
