He's Going for Three....

Andrew's summer baseball season ended last night. He claims his team went undefeated...even though technically they don't keep score. With a storm approaching, Andrew got up to bat and launched one over the left fielder's head. Unfortunately, Andrew broke one of baseball's unwritten rules.....
Here is the video of the hit. Dan is coaching 3rd base.

3rd Place at 15U AA MBT State Tournament

Aaron's traveling baseball team captured third place this weekend at the state MBT tournament in Eagan. 19 of the 21 teams in the tournament were from the metro area. The Tigers lost to Shoreview in extra innings in the semi-final round but came back to beat Woodbury for third place honors.

Having Fun At Big Pine Lake

The weather was beautiful over the 4th of July weekend. Fishing, swimming, and bags kept everyone busy while at the lake. We even found time to eat at Kari's favorite restaurant, Pizza Ranch.
