Winding Down

It's hard to believe the baseball and softball seasons are coming to an end already. The weather here in Minnesota this summer may have had something to do with that. From rainy and cold to stifling hot in a matter of days each week...it's been hard to find that summer groove.

Lil' TK and the Mankato Royals 13AA Maroon team will be playing their season ending MBT State Tournament this weekend. Coming off the high of the 1st place win in Edina, the boys had a rough weekend in Rochester. Some good practices and some time to reflect will help them get ready for State in Lakeville.

Kels and the Mankato Peppers 14U Blue team found their groove thing at the MMFL Qualifier Tournament in Farmington last weekend to earn a 1st Tier 4th seed placement in the State Tournament this weekend which will be in Forest Lake. Coming off injury to her left foot, Kels came back with a vengeance to strike out the final batter with bases loaded and win the game that propelled them further into the championship bracket at the Qualifier. The team ended up taking 3rd but played some great softball on a long, hot weekend.


Big TK added working for MAYBA as a Gambling Auditor to his list of activities each day. Ang is still with The Occasions Group. One of the companies that is part of TOG, Carlson Craft, has launched a new program called The Celebration Nation. Sounds pretty neat. Check it out (there are even money-making opportunities for stay at home moms and anyone who likes to celebrate life's events!)

Abby is not digging all the loud storms and hot, sticky weather. Nor did she enjoy the roof being replaced and the driveway being fixed. All that's left to do that will be loud and have strange people bugging her is the new siding that will be installed soon. She sure does love her walks with Ang though so maybe the Crew can appease her with lots and lots of walks!
