Colt World Series

Our youngest 3 boys have been involved with the Tippy All-Star Baseball League this summer and it has been a great experience!  The season culminated with the amazing opportunity to play ball during the Colt World Series, which is held in Lafayette every summer.  As I stood there, watching all those 15 and 16 year old players surround the field and cheer our kids on, I couldn't hold back the tears.  It was a special night!

 Teams from Mexico, Germany, Indonesia, Texas, California, etc surrounded the ball diamond while the Tippy Stars took the field.  Each child had a player assigned to them.
 Lucas made it through half of an inning, but it was just too overwhelming to think about batting in front of all those people, so he spent the rest of the evening on the side lines with Dad.

 Jeremy got a great hit and was running to first also!

 All of the players got bags of goodies and medals!

It's been a great summer of baseball for these special kiddos and we are so thankful to have been a part of it!
