One Step Closer...


Over the weekend Jeff umpired several games for the 11-12 Little League State Tournament. There were teams from all over Florida and boy could those boys play ball. Jeff had fun even though it was hot and sticky out. It even rained during Monday nights championship game. The kids and I went out to the park to watch the game in the rain. What dedication! After the championship game Jeff was evaluated on his performance as an umpire and was recommended for the Regional Tournament next year...that's the whole southeast (8 states). We are so proud of him! He's one step closer to Williamsport.

Hey Blue!

Jeff loves to umpire Little League baseball games! He's really good at it too. Last weekend he did two 9-10 sectional games, one behind the plate and one behind first base. I didn't hear one parent grumble (on either side) about any of his calls.

He just walked out the door to do two 12-13 sectional games and then next weekend he will be doing his first 11-12 state tournament. Next year he is hoping to do Regionals and someday he would love to be an umpire at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA.


We love our BLUE (aka umpire)!

Here we go again

We started our blogging experience at www.keelfamily.blog.com, but found that site to be hard to use so here we are starting over. I really want to know if anybody is reading my blog so please leave me a comment and let me know how I'm doing or what you are up to.

More to come on the Keel family soon...it's been a slow week for us! Yeah!
