This is what The Sampson Family has been singing all summer long. We have had our share of Baseball games and it really has been a fun, but really busy season. I think we can all say we are almost done with baseball for a while, (well maybe just Sadie and I). We have 2 tournaments left and then we are taking a breather from baseball for a few months.
