Jakob is finally old enough to play little league and couldn't wait for it to start! A couple weeks ago they had their pictures and opening ceremonies-it was quite the event! This is our first time doing little league and I didn't know that made such a big deal out of it. As you can see Jakob is on the Rockies, he was a little disappointed to find out that he was not on the Dodgers, but quickly remembered that the Rockies were in the World Series last year and decided it was okay to be a Rockie! We just didn't remind him that they got swept!
Here is his team. Somehow we managed to get him on the same team with one our neighbor friends and 2 of his friends from his kindergarten class, so he is loving that! Wade volunteered to be an assistant coach, so he helps out at the practices and games when he doesn't have to be at work-Jakob thinks that is pretty cool to have his dad as a coach!
This is all the teams that are playing this season. After pictures, they annouced each player and they got to go on a "parade" around the field so everyone could see them and their team. It was an all day event, but was a fun experience for Jakob! Now we can't wait for the games to begin!

How fun! We skipped soccer this season, and Luke hasn't realized it yet. Thanks, but I am not tiny! Just wait till you see me. I'm right on track for another 40 pound gain like I did with Chloe!! I really hope you can come!
Woah! Sounds like you're in for a good farmer's tan sitting through all those practices & games!
Have fun Jakob! Let us know when your games are, and maybe we can come down to one. Carson and Austin would love to see you play! Wade, that's awesome that you are his coach. I bet it means alot to Jakob!
Hey! How come I'm not on your links list :( crazychristiansens.blogspot.com
Go Rockies! Tell Jakob that everyone here in Colorado is crazy for The Rockies! We hope they do as good as the big guns! He also looks so cute in his uniform!
