Ian, Friends and Baseball

Ian turned 12 years old on the 20th.
This is all about Ian, his friends and baseball

Ian's team: The Giants, placed 2nd in
a Memorial Day weekend tournament

Ian's wind up
It amazes me how high he can get his knee;
well past the 'Giants' on his jersey

Later that evening he had a few friends
over for pizza, a movie and a bonfire
with S'mores to celebrate his birthday

Tyrus, Ian and David being goofy

The girls turn:
Mackenzie, Tatum, Taylor, Sarah and Rachel

I joined Ian and his 6th grade
classmates on a field trip
to see the Tacoma Rainiers play baseball

Here are all the kids at the game that day on the field
getting autographs from the players

It must have been 'field trip day' at Cheney Stadium

Pitcher Jared Wells

Rainiers before the game

Showing respect during
the 'Star Spangled Banner'

The Rainiers mascot, Rhubarb
decided to streak across the field

He gave the official a good chase

I've never seen a naked moose before

William, Ian and Tyrus

Me and Ian
Our seats were not directly in the sun
but we got to enjoy it before the game started

Ian with his best friend David

David's mom with Ian's mom

Ian's teacher
Mr. Martin

These guys are gonna miss each other next year
He's been a great teacher


It was a great day for a baseball game
The Rainiers lost: 6-8
