We have a STATE CHAMPION in the family!


Jill's team played for the Coach Pitch 8 and under State Championship in Clifton this past Friday night. (It just happened to be the same day I had to get a root canal at 7 am in Waco and pick up the kids at Cousin Camp in Abilene at noon. Jonathan had too much work to do, so my dad (THANK GOODNESS!) drove me to Abilene (I mostly slept) to get the kids and hurry to Clifton to be there by 4:30.


They had to play 3 games that night to win the whole thing. They played Salado first and beat them. Then they had to play the Bosqueville Diamond Darlins---twice----because it was double elimination. They beat them the first time 15-0, but the second game was much closer with a final score of 5-4. It was a great game with a great finish to a long season. We are so proud of Jill and her team! After the game in Clifton (about 30 minutes away) we went to Pizza House in West around 11:30 for the victory celebration!
