Last tourney of the season for..........

Sammy.
She drove away this morning with Grandpa at 5:45 am. They are on their way to Oklahoma and will be back in two weeks. It was very strange this morning not having to pack lunches, make sure we have ice in the cooler and a map to the field. The following photos are from her last game on Saturday. Her Aunt Liz and Treva came over from Yakima. they were their for her 2nd game. They only got to see her bat as the coach sat her for that game. We did get to go have lunch with them before they left. I will have to get their permission to post their photos. Enjoy. Sammy will be attending quite a few tryouts next month. It is time to move onto another team.


Seeds....gotta have at every game!!



Bill's sister Liz took this photo. Don't mind the sweat! lol It was hot, muggy etc. and no shade!



While we were waiting for the game to finish and for Sammy's to start. We ran into Coach Mike and his wife Jenna. I mentioned Coach Mike a few posts back in May. He coached Sammy when she was on the LadySharks. Coach Mike has an agressive brain tumor, I think the only thing that keeps him going is Softball. He gave Sammy a big hug and told her when his team was playing at the same complex as her team. He wanted to see/talk to her but either she was playing or his team was. That made her feel really good. His team is on their way in a few weeks for Nationals. When Sammy was on the team, that was their first time to make it to Nationals.



Hand signs to Dad....I am batting 7th!













Coach Stan just told the team. This was Sammy's last day. She was so fighting the tears.




Waterworks. Coaches wife.



Hugs etc from parents and team mates.






The last day with softball hair for a while
