Last Year Photo

Cole's head coach's wife sent us this photo from last year. Sorry, but I think Cole just looks so cute I had to share. Click on it and see it closer up. You have to agree with me don't you?

Cole's Hammers Win Season-Ending Tournament

On June 27 Cole's baseball team claimed a nine-team tournament. They won two games Saturday and then won three games Sunday, including a 20-7 victory in the final game against a team from Omaha, Neb., which had gone through the bracket undefeated. Cole pitched great during the tournament and his whole team hit the ball like they have never done before. Very fun and a great way to end the season (except for the regular season double-header coming up Tuesday).

Country Stampede

Mike and Lisa were able to attend the Country Stampede Music Festival in Manhattan Friday night. We saw Tracy Lawrence, Darius Rucker and Keith Urban perform. We were fortunate to be able to have VIP passes, which made the experience outstanding. We want to go again next year.

KU Camp Photos

Last week Brad and Cole were able to participate in some of the Kansas sports camps. Both played in the football and basketball camps. KU Athletics photographer Jeff Jacobsen was kind enough to snap a couple of shots of Cole playing in a special camp game in front of the whole group. Jon Kirby of Rivals.com took a shot of Brad at the football camp. Thanks guys.

Olympic Champion Billy Mills

On Thursday, June 10, native American and 1964 10,000-meter Olympic champion Billy Mills returned to Lawrence to talk at Haskell Indian Nation's University. We went to listen to him and he was great. Brad and Cole had the opportunity to get their picture taken with this legendary star.
