Stixx tourny in Columbia

The Stixx team played in a few tournaments this year. Everytime we go to a tournament Bronson and Braylon look forward to the swimming part of the trip! I don't blame them. They are actually very good when we go to the ball parks, but seriously they don't know any different. They have grown up around it pretty much all of their lives.



Braxton and some of his buddies were playing some game in the pool. They had to race across the pool with another person on their back. Whoever lost had to jump in the pool bocking like a chicken. It was hilarious!



Here they all are getting ready to jump in together bocking like chickens!
While Matt and Amy were watching Tyler play ball we kept Logan with us so he could swim and hang out with us. Him and Braylon had a great time together. This is them jumping on the bed after they woke up from their naps.
Little Miss Maty is so cute and is fantastic at all the games.
I LOVE this picture of my dad and jared's dad. Who would know what they were cracking up about!

This is the tournament where we ended up having to play at 10:00 and 11:15 at night due to the rain backing things up. We actually played better at that time of night then we had been playing when we played during the day. We thought maybe we were going to have to start requesting midnight games.
This is the ball that Braxton hit and got a triple out of it. He told me after the game that he thought he was getting faster because he made it all the way to third. I had to burst his bubble and tell him that I didn't think he was getting faster, I just thought he was hitting it further:) If you have ever watched him run, you know that he doesn't run fast. We are always teasing him and telling him to unhook the plow. He is a pretty good sport about it.
Here he is after flying around those bases to get to third on his hit!


The boys ended up getting third place and did a very good job. All of us parents were really excited to see that the Stixx were back and were playing ball like they knew how.
