Jake has met most of the family so far, but he still hadn't met Ralph's brothers who are away at college. Uncle Greg is a freshman at Ohio Weslyan, and Uncle Chris is a junior at Elon University in North Carolina.
We took a road trip this past weekend to Elon to see Uncle Chris play baseball. He is the first baseman (and occasional pitcher!) for the Elon Phoenix. The team was playing a weekend series against Georgia Southern University. We were delighted to see all three games, the best one being on Sunday, when the team beat GSU 24-6! Chris even got up to pitch the last inning - three batters, up, three batters down! He tried out his new sidearm pitching technique, which he just started trying out less than a week ago! It looked pretty darn good to me! Here is a picture of Jake with Uncle Chris after the games.
We had a great time seeing Chris and Mema Mary, and Jake was amazingly well-behaved the entire time. He is a very good boy - in the car and at the games! People couldn't believe he was so well-behaved at only 4 weeks! We are lucky parents so far! We are hoping to take a trip to go see Grandma and Grandpa Valentine in York this weekend. Jake has yet to meet his furry "Aunt" Jamie (my parents black lab).
