SAN BERNARDINO, here we come!

We spent a week in San Bernardino watching Jaden play softball; her team represented Oregon.  Pendleton finished in the middle of the pack - just couldn't get past Montana...  They did have the distinction of being the only team to beat Utah, the team that won the championship!  Utah will play in the Little League Softball World Series in Portland.

We stopped for lunch at Erik Schat's Bakkery in Bishop and saw this bumper sticker!  

Sandwiches were excellent, macaroons too!

And YES, WE DO LOVE CAMBRIA!!!

SAN BERNARDINO AL HOUGHTON STADIUM 

Pendleton girls play in the Western Region Softball Tournament.  Just look at that field - what an awesome place for these girls to play and what an amazing opportunity!

Gift exchange before first game against Montana.

Pledge of Allegiance + Little League pledge for players and parents!

Love how the girls are connecting (hands and braids!)

Big sister, Jilly, encouraging the team!  212° - only one 

more degree and water boils - give that little extra!

Jaden at bat with Justin coaching first base.

And a throw from 3rd base!

SAN BERNARDINO

Palm trees outside our motel...

View from the Castaway Restaurant overlooking San Bernardino.  Beautiful view - 2 weeks ago a fire destroyed five homes next door, fire fighters fought the fire from this patio deck.  

KNOTT'S BERRY FARM

We took a day off between games and enjoyed Knott's Berry Farm.

Make a wish...
