We celebrated my younger son's 10th birthday by taking him and some friends to the 10th annual University of Virginia's baseball team Step Up to the Plate dinner/fundraiser. There were 60+ former players in attendance, along with lots of local people and the whole current team. Here is the night in pictures...

John Hicks - Seattle 4th round in 2011
***Story of the night...The boys asked John to sign his EEE base card for them. John had not seen the card yet (his autos in EEE were stickers). He was so excited he took the card to show it to his Dad who was standing nearby. Really fun moment.***
