Well the Yankees played against the Cubs and we took home 2nd place.
The kids were really bummed not to have gotten the big huge trophies,
but overall it was an awesome season!

Rylie had a big swim meet on the 14th. She swam 4 events.
She took 1st place in her division for the 100 meter back stroke!
She also swam the 100 meter free style, the 50 breast stroke and the 50 back stroke. She is awesome at backstroke. I don't have any pics of Rylie swimming,
I was taking video. My computer doesn't know how to up load video so I can put it on my blog. SORRY! take my word for it... She's FAST.

Brookelynn has been spending a couple days in St. George with Grandma and Grandpa Miller, We've all been missing her! especially Shelby.
we are all looking forward to heading up to Idaho next week for a little Johnson time. that's all for now. More pictures to come.

They did it!! Jake's baseball team made it to the championship game!!
Tonight's game conditions were horrible! The wind was about 25miles/hour.
The boys would throw a ball, and it would practically come right back to them. We played the Mets. We went three innings without any score on the board and then the Mets hit a home run. Oh, NO. We thought it was over for us. next inning we got 1 run and since We had last ups and we were tied, the yankees had a second wind ( no pun intened) with one boy on 1st, Jake hit a hard ball to center field and made a double the next batter hit a single. bases loaded. Austin, (the coaches son, and our teams heavy hitter) was up to bat. He knocked it way into outfield and hit everybody home!! Score was now 5 to 1. In little league you are only allowed 5 runs per inning.The parents were so stoked!! (kids too!) There was still time left and since we had scored our 5 runs the other team was up to bat. We were all holding our breath that we could keep them from getting any runs. And We Did!!! our championship game is on SAT. June 7th. WAY TO GO YANKEES!!
