And now....Brady LeBlanc and the AZ Centennials!!

Our good friend, Steve Stanley, has had an amazing opportunity recently.  After years of not being "in the game," he tried out for an independent baseball league here and made a local team, the Arizona Centennials!  You can read more about the league here.  It is an inexpensive and fun way to spend an evening with your family.  Steve played AAA ball for the A's a while back and took a break to raise his beautiful family.  We are thrilled he is back in the game of baseball and couldn't be more proud!!

Luckily, we have been able to go to quite a few of the Centennials' games this summer.  They play at the spring training facilities around the valley.  The boys are loving baseball lately and they pretty much have the run of the place while they are there, grabbing foul balls, eating snacks, and getting autographs after the game.

Last night the boys got extra lucky.  They were asked to come up in the press box for the 3rd inning and Brady got to announce the batters as they came up to the plate.  He was a little nervous at first, but he rocked it!

A Lot of Catching Up to Do!


Almost a year has passed since we have updated this blog.  I can think of a million reasons excuses for it getting pushed aside, but I think the main one is Facebook.  One of the great things about "Jake and Brady Central", is the ability to keep friends and family up-to-date on what is going on with our boys.  With Facebook, we are easily able to do that as well. But that isn't why J & B's Daddy started this blog.  He did it for THEM.  He wanted Jake and Brady to have stories, pictures, and memories from their childhood to last them a lifetime.  So although a lot of time has passed and I will never be able to truly catch up on everything they've been up to in the last year or so, I'm going to make my best effort to keep it going.....for THEM.  


Now for some recent pictures......


We had these pictures taken by L. Soucy Photography back in May, as a gift for Grandma and Poppy.  I just love the way all of the cousins get along.  J and B are blessed to call them friends too!
