With Luke playing Little League baseball this year, we spend a fair amount of time at the ballfield. It's quickly becoming a second home that we love. The little brothers find ways to entertain themselves, Mama loves watching and cheering, and Dad usually helps out keeping score or as a base coach. We play all our games in Palmer Lake, a cute little mountain town, with a local coffee shop and ice cream spot within walking distance!
This past game was quite a story! We set up camp, and the team warmed up. Right at the start of the game, the dark clouds rolled in with some thunder. They called a 10 minute rain delay, so we all retreated to our cars. We were pretty certain the game would be called off. A decent rainstorm passed through ... and 15 minutes later we were back out to the field ... play ball!
Toward the end of the game with the bases loaded, Luke got up to bat and hit a GRAND SLAM!! Talk about quite the sight to watch! As Luke came across home plate, his team was cheering him on with high fives, pats on his helmet, and fist bumps. Go, Luke!
We put together a fun little video from the game. I didn't realize Reid had taken some video which made for a fun intro, then I was fortunate to catch Luke's grand slam on video, followed by Grant goofing around for the finale. Enjoy!
