Felt like it was time for a quick update on the guys.  We’ve been texting and talking fairly regularly while I’ve been in Cambodia, but I haven’t gotten a lot of pick-up from them on the concept of being “guest authors” for the blog — so I’ll do my best!

Kyle seems to be settling into his new life as an infantry officer in Ft. Benning pretty nicely….

He and Bow are, of course, finding it hard to be apart for so long, but were able to spend a classic 4th of July together in Georgia, including an Atlanta Braves baseball game, a BBQ and a trip to the aquarium — where they had a personal “meet & greet” encounter with a penguin named Ruby (like their puppy back home 🙂 )

And speaking of baseball!!  Matt has been having a great summer – as evidenced by the league-leading ERA 🙂

He has been named to the California Collegiate League All-Star team and is slated to pitch the bottom of the 6th inning.  For those of you in the U.S., the game will be televised on Fox Sports at 7pm on July 16th.  (If somebody can record it for me, I will be forever grateful!!).  And if anyone wants to follow the rest of his summer season, he’s playing for the Los Angeles Brewers, who are leading the CCL South with a 14-5 record so far!
