They're back! Jake's entire baseball team moved up together to AA baseball this year. It's been really fun to watch the kids' skills improve over two seasons. They're a young team in the AA bracket, but have held their own winning all but one game so far. They're a scrappy team that wins by stringing together hits and making outs in the field instead of relying on a few power hitters to drive in most of the runs. Opponents are caught off guard when some of our smaller players step up and line drive the ball into the outfield. It's been fun to watch and Jake is having a great time playing for his dad's team again, especially since he drilled one into right center in today's game for his first ever stand-up triple. It was awesome!

Our New Beach Cottage
We spent the entire afternoon constructing our very own beach cottage at Fowlweather Bluff (cottage being loosely defined here). Jake added the finishing touches including side walls to keep out the wind (a good design sense...maybe taking after his Dad?!). The day started off grey and overcast, but turned out being warm and sunny. The fact that Jason and I ended up cleaning bathrooms and doing laundry well into the night was so worth it. I'd choose beach hut building instead of cleaning the house any day!
