Oddball #7

With two games a week, T-ball continues to be the happening thing in Browntown right now. Elliot is wearing the #7 jersey for Oddball Shoes. At the last game our friend Bryon brought a camera with a sports lens and got some pretty nice shots. Here's a little taste of Monday's big game against the Timmco Insurance squad.
Ear to ear grin...this kid loves to play.
Getting set...
It's a hit.

Daddle in Seattle

My longtime buddy Steve was up in Seattle visiting family a couple weeks ago. It's only three hours away, so the boys and I went on a whirlwind roadtrip to see Steve and his girls, Iris and Ella. I got off work early, grabbed the boys and we zipped up to Seattle in time to meet up with Steve and Co. at a Mariners game.
The boys trying to snag a ball before the game (no luck this time).
The next morning we walked down to Pikes market to watch fish get thrown around.
We met back up with Steve and the girls at the market, made an obligatory Starbucks stop, and then we went down to the aquarium. Iris and Elliot became fast friends.


Ella looking sweeter than vanilla steamed milk.

Sunshine in Seattle? Who knew?
We jammed a lot into 24 hours and I think we did pretty well for a couple of dads on the town with kids ages 2, 3, 4, and 5. Next time, some music.
