Faves from 2012 - Part II

 
Brandan's first tuxedo!

My boys and their dates before the Baseball Banquet!
Very cool having two players there...one finishing and one beginning.

 
Brothers for life and brothers in baseball!

Keyton and Makenzie were asked to participate in a Quincinera in August.

Silly kids!  Love watching them play around and make each other smile :)

 
Moved Brandan into his dorm at FPC!

 
Our last moments before we leave B at school...

My Baseball Favorites from 2012

 (Brandan's signing with Frank Philips Jr. College)
 
Surprise!!
Yep, here I am, it's the beginning of 2013 and of course I am all gung ho to post in my blog!
We'll see how long it lasts!
I want to post some of my favorite photos from 2012, and since baseball is numero uno priority, I thought I would showcase the baseball pics in a post of their own!




 
Brandan's last time to play at Ranger stadium.

 
Keyton is back in the game as a HAWK!
Loved watching this boy pick right back up where he left off 5 years ago!
 

 
Here's Tuck getting hit by a pitch and taking it like the big boys!!
Never a tear, weeell, until his dad hit him in the face with a grounder at practice one fine day!


 
Last year of high school baseball before moving onto bigger, better and more challenging.
 
 
 
All three of these boys can pitch!

 
And lookee here!  My Keyton put on the catcher's gear and did an amazing job!

 
Not only does he catch, he also pitches, plays 1st, 2nd and out field!
 
 
Brandan played his last season with the Arlington A's summer of '12
His Premier World Championship was in Springfield Missouri.
I have to say that I love the state of Missouri!
The people are so friendly and it really is pretty there.

 
Springfield's Minor League Field was the site of Opening Ceremonies.

 
Keyton played in his first World Series in FlowerMound, Texas.
He was MVP for his team for the entire tournament.
I missed alot of the games due to leaving for Missouri, but sure was proud of him!


 
Tuck attended his first Red Oak Hawk Baseball Camp.
(Just between you and me, it sure ain't no MHS Plainsman Camp like we all know and love :)
 
The temperature was probabaly 102!  Tucker was sweatin' like crazy!

 
Camp is hard work!
 
 
Buntin' like the best of 'em!
 
 
And lastly, one at one of my top 5 favorite fields (out of 100 or more).
This is the Optomist Field in downtown Waxahachie, Texas.
Trees surround the fields and to top it all off...a train runs through regularly.
Love it!!
 
Hugs to you all and I hope you enjoy the pics.
I'll be back to post more of 2012 and hopefully continue the fun!
