Summer Love - Baseball

Mac on first.

I love this picture of the boys and coaches watching the other teams play.


Checking out the competition.

Mac and the All-Star team . . . Mac is 2nd from the right in front.

Well, I know some of you may be wondering what happened with baseball . . . or not . . . but anyway, I will fill you in on the scoop. Our All-Star team played wonderfully . . . they beat the team from Berlin. :o) When it came time to play the team that had been to the Little League World Series last year, it wasn't quite as pretty. Ramstein beat us and so . . . they are the team to move on. Sad as it was, it was a great experience for Mac to be on the team, and they did have fun while it lasted. Mac made some great friends and learned a lot from the coaches - he'll never forget the time he actually got to play with other boys that really know how to play baseball. He certainly was blessed. Our friends arrived when the tourament ended - well, Julie arrived before the end and even got to see some games - thrilling for her, I'm sure . . . but that's why you haven't heard the end of the baseball story. So . . . another summer love is lost - but we will certainly look for a German team to play with this fall instead of doing that crazy wrestle thing - we think we may have a lead on that one. :o) We will certainly keep you posted. So . . . I thought I'd post a picture of the All-Star team from our region and our number 1 player - who just happened to be number 1 as well. :o)

ENJOY!!!

The Culprits!

Lydia, Tom Fukunaga, Eileen Fukunaga, Julie Breidenbach, Katelyn, Mac and John

So . . . there you have it - the culprits that have been keeping us busy and away from blogging! :o) You know I have to have an excuse, and this one seems as good as any other one to me! We've had good friends that I taught with here in Germany the last time visiting the past two weeks and so there has been no good time to go to blogland. So . . . here we are - on our last day together in Marburg, Germany. A wonderful town that none of us had visited before - absoultely quaint and cute. I'll tell more about it in another posting, but I just wanted to prove that we were still alive and kicking. I'll be back to posting soon - since now I have a lot to post about!!!

ENJOY!!!
