The Schuerman Family

LAX End-of-the-Season Party

The family of one of Colin's LAX teammates held an end-of-the-season pool party at their house at the end of June. Check out all the fun the boys had!

It was difficult yanking him from the pool that night. Cadence had a softball game that evening, too, so we grabbed McDonald's for dinner! Here's a pic for Danny.

Canadian Wildfires

Toward the end of June, the smoke from the Canadian wildfires made its way to Columbus. Check out the haze in the pictures. So eerie.

This was on my drive home from work.

This was not morning fog.

This was on my drive to work the following morning. 😱

During the final weekend of June, we headed to "Cincinnati" - it was super close to Hamilton - for Colin's team's final tournament. They lost all 4 games that weekend. Luckily, I don't think that's what the boys will take away from the weekend. They'll remember the hotel, the MLB game, and all the fun they had together instead. That's what it's all about anyway, right?!

Their first game was Friday morning. Vince, Lily, and Gracie were able to join us!

We grabbed some Raising Canes after the game...

...and made a quick trip to Jungle Jim's!

The boys caught a quick game of whiffle ball at the hotel.

Then we headed downtown for the Braves @ Reds game with Mamaw & Papaw!

There was a concert afterward that we did not stick around for, but took a cute pic anyway.

Colin's buddy, Willy, filled in for us and played with our 10u team that weekend!

The boys got rowdy!

And made it onto the Jumbotron!

...and TV!!

In between games on Saturday, we grabbed lunch at Panera.

Colin and Peyton both got sweet jerseys at the game. All the boys had fun on the putting green that night.

After pizza, the boys and coaches were given gifts. I snapped a pic of the boys giving Danny a group hug. It was bittersweet that night.

It rained a good bit that morning. Luckily the rain moved out for the boys' last game of the weekend.

Danny warming up Colin 😍

Even with the losses, it was a nice way to wrap up the 10u travel season.

Yep, Mooooore Softball & Baseball

Check out some of our early summer ball happenings!

Cadence's individual picture from the season - turned out great!

Cadence got the game ball for the first game of pool play on Saturday. She had an awesome catch that helped them secure a W! They won both games that day, but lost on Sunday during bracket play.

We stopped by Hobby Lobby to cool down and kill time in between games. Haha, "She needs a golden calculator to divide (to divide)" (Oukast - Roses). We had a successful trip and scored many gifts for Father's Day.

We also met the team at Roosters for lunch!

The following weekend, Colin had a tournament in Delaware. Cadence and I were able to go to the Friday game...

He was a busy boy that weekend! And with it being Father's Day weekend, the dad's picked out the walkup songs for the boys. Cadence helped and Colin's song was "The Fart Song." It was difficult to not crack up every time he got up to bat. I kind of felt sorry for the kid 😂

After the Friday game, we had to divide and conquer. Cadence and I headed to Findlay and had dinner at Bob Evans - she wanted some biscuits. The sunset was pretty cool on our way to the parking lot!

Danny was able to join us for the games on Saturday. Here's a shot of the girls in the dugout before their first game. They went 2-1 that day - it was a long day of softball!

They had fun with some eye black before Sunday's morning game. They ended up losing in bracket play, so we headed back to Delaware to catch Colin's games in Delaware.

Here's Colin and some of his teammates watching the other Eagles 10u team play. There was a chance we could've played them, but they lost and Colin's team ended up playing the maroon New Albany team in the bracket championship game.
