I forgot to put Katie's piano recital pictures on the blog from back in May.

Summer Is Here!!

The last couple of weeks have been pretty busy with end of the school year stuff. Michael's baseball team became District Champions but lost in the regionals. Katie had her piano recital and they both had part in end year school programs. Now summer is here and the kids can relax a little. However, there's been plenty to do. Katie is still playing softball, and now that school's out, she can spend more time with her friends playing. Michael has been helping me with VBS props and has taken somewhat of an interest in wood-working. We're working on a backstop for his air-soft guns and his slingshot. Below are some baseball pictures of Michael. I’m working on Katie’s softball pictures.

Baseball and Softball News

Both Michael and Katie are having a great time in sports this year. Last Thursday, Katie hit a milestone by hitting a double down the left field line. Unfortunately, Sandra, Michael and I missed it. We were at the Inter-City Baptist High School graduation (Michael sang in the chorale). But never fear, Grandma Miller was there with the camera!! Katie has been doing very well in both the hitting and fielding departments.

Michael's team played this past Saturday and won two games to become the district champions! They will be playing this Saturday in regionals. Though Michael's playing time has been limited as a freshman on the varsity team, he's done well. The last game that Michael pitched, he came in as a reliever and did a great job. He even fanned a few batters. (That means he struck them out.)
