my boy
We’re celebrating Timmy’s first communion today! Plenty of pictures soon from special day and his “vintage baseball” themed party to come. But here’s a really, really toofless one taken recently, although now he’s missing one more on the top. And he got a haircut so he’s not the shaggy dog anymore.

ssms v oceanside
So far, we haven’t been real lucky with the weather on game days. Today might be the first nice one if the weather lasts-I’ve worn my winter coat to the last two SSMS baseball games. Unfortunately, another loss for the team and Jack sat the bench this game. But at least I got some decent pictures (I was able to get onto the field this time).

ssms baseball vs. uniondale
The SSMS first baseball game of the year, so of course I took pictures. And ironic isn’t it. That this blog is somehow turning into a baseball blog. When you all know how I feel about baseball…
They didn’t win but played a good game. Jack had two great plays at first and a nice hit. I’m sure you’ll recognize a few of the faces from the Royals and from football last year.

rvc royals- first game of the season
And crap, it was ffffffreezing at the game. I still have no idea how any of them were able to play it was so cold out.
All the boys have changed so much since the fall/winter. They’re all taller, broader and just different shapes than they used to be. Seeing them on the field, it was so hard to tell who was who, when last year it was so easy. Plus a few of them changed #s so that made it all the harder. 
Jack pitching…
And a pretty sunset even though it was like 3 degrees out.
Johnny pitching…
Timmy freezing.
A run down at 3rd base. Zach in action. 
A new Royal- Nick (hit a double. I missed a ton of shots of them all hitting- it was so cold and I couldn’t move the camera and focus fast enough. Boo.)
Trying to keep his hands warm. 
Patrick had a great hit (yeah, missed that one too) and made it to first.
Heading home. 
Well, I almost got the shot…
Freezing parents & siblings.
The whole team. From the left standing: Jack C, Glenn, Johnny, Mike, Zach, Patrick, Marc (another new Royal player), Michael. Front row kneeling: Jack, Julia, Anthony & Nick. Barely visible in the background Sean, Coach Rob, Coach Kevin, Coach John and Coach John.
Looking forward to a great season, but it better be warmer for the next game I’m at. -
jack & patrick
A few favorite shots I made them take for me recently. Getting them to take pictures for me lately is like pulling teeth, but as long as I don’t ask too often I think we’re ok. Sorta.
The funny thing is that they’re wearing the opposite colors that are normally “theirs”.

A lot going on for them lately (mostly baseball related) and they are so excited about starting Regis in the fall (and I’m still so proud!!). Going to be a very interesting year!
