the baseball march madness

every year during ncaa march madness, we attend a baseball tournament in st. george called "march madness".  i love it.  it's just starting to be spring and it's usually warm enough for sandals in st. george.  and the best part is, baseball is back!  today was the first day of the tournament.  isaac played games in hurricane (not my favorite fields).  his games were early.  he started the first game pitching, but because of a portable mound problem he struggled and they moved him to catcher.  he had two fun games and hit well, but his team lost both. 


when isaac's games ended, we quickly jumped in the car and headed for mesquite, nevada for sam's games.  sam played great in center field, stopping runners from scoring from third a couple of times because of his great arm.  he also had an amazing double over the center fielder's head.  the blackhawks won the first game and barely lost the second game by two runs.  in fact, they had momentum and we thought we could play one more inning but the time expired when our inning ran 10 seconds too long.  it was a big, big bummer.   
after all four games, we went back to the condo and watched the recorded byu ncaa tournament game with the brinkerhoffs.  they had won earlier in the day and won again when we watched the recording!
