TN State softball tournament

Saturday & Sunday we played in the state tournament and finished 2nd!!!  We were so proud of our girls, they did an awesome job!  Although they made us nervous, they lost the first game of the tourney which put them in the losers bracket and we all know what that means.....playing back to back, fighting their way back to the the top.  And they did just that, in true Shelbyville fashion,  our girls played their little hearts out all the way to the Championship game!  However they just couldn't get passed a newly formed team that was put together just to come to the tournament!!  So therefore, Sliders...you will always be number 1 in our hearts!!!








Now that tournament ball is over we will be gearing up for fall ball.  Kaylee moves up to kid pitch, and as she said, "They don't want you to hit the ball Momma like in coach pitch!"  Thats right baby girl, we have no idea what the future holds for you in this sport but whatever... we will support you just as we always have.  We know you LOVE the game and as you tell us in the back yard when we say isn't that enough pitching or aren't you ready to go in, "Practice makes perfect!!"

We will have one more day of celebration with the Sliders in a few weeks when we all load up and head to Holiday World for a fun filled weekend!!  We will sure miss our Slider's family, as it has been a great summer!!!!
