Beach+Baseball

This weekend we were at the coast at Newport for Merrick's baseball tournament.  It was a super fun, but I am exhausted so this is going to be short and sweet.  We arrived in Newport about 5pm on Friday night.  The weather was really bad but the kids enjoyed the time at the indoor pool and dinner out with a special stop for ice cream so it all worked out.



Saturday, Merrick's games weren't until 4 and 6 so we had the whole morning/early afternoon to play.  The weather was a tiny bit better so we spent some time walking along the beach and then hit the pool and hot tub again.  The games on Saturday were a mixed bag with one win and one loss but the girls kept themselves busy with making rock art.



Today was ALL about baseball with games most of the day.  We won both of our games today and Merrick did some lights out pitching.  He pitched for four innings and let in just 1 run (it actually was a home run on the first batter he faced in the first inning-gahhh! but he didn't let it rattle him and moved on for a great outing).  They ended up winning their division of the tournament.



We just got home and, like I said, we are all exhausted.  It was a great weekend though and now we just have to buckle down and make it through the last full week of school.
