March Madness

3RD place! Way to go Bandits!
We just spent our weekend in St. George (Southern Utah) For the March Madness Tournament. Jaxon had 2 games scheduled for Thursday and 2 games scheduled for Friday. The Bandits won all 4! Yeah Bandits! Which meant another day at the ball field, Saturday their first game at 11:30, They won so they played again at 1:30 unfortunatly they lost to the Las Vegas Bulldogs (who won the tournament) but still got to play again for 3rd place. 7 games in 3 days, 6-1 for the tournament. We will take it!
You can always tell when Jaxon is happy with his pitch by his "Joba fist pump"!

Easton, happy it is 80 degrees not 50 like last months tournament! No blankets and coats!


With only 9 players the Bandits invited Carson to be the emergency sub in case anyone got injured or sick. He didn't get any field time but he was a big help keeping the dugout picked up or helping the catcher with his gear or any other tasks he found.






Legos! the best invention ever! Mason can be entertained for hours at the ball park with a box of Legos and a blanket.

It was a fun baseball filled weekend with lots of sun. Nothing better than a nice warm day at the ball park when your team is winning!
