Indy Baseball Tourney=Family Summer Vaca

Luke had a baseball tournament originally scheduled in Iowa however, things changed, and so we were off to a tournament in Indianapolis! We turned it into an opportunity for a little family vaca to explore a new city. When life hands you a lemon, make.... 

Luke is living his best life! He was invited to travel down to Indy with a few of the bball guys and a few coaches in an RV. Oh, man. This crew played MLB The Show the entire trip! Coach crushed all of them turning "Big Luke" to well, "Little Luke". :) 


That meant there was just the 4 of us in the mini! We all stayed at the Embassy Suites and t was the PERFECT spot for this crew. We had an unlimited free happy hour each night and made to order breakfast in the morning! Yes, please.
Cheers to family and happy hour!
We were able to get away for a day to spend downtown Indy as a family!
I had no idea but Indy has this cute canal that goes through downtown. Elle was all about the pedalboats so that's how we explored the city!
We all took turns "driving"!



We pulled the boat over to play at a park and had lunch at a hotdog stand.

Indy, you were cuter than I ever thought. Ben, you're pretty cute too. 
Back at the hotel, this was how we spent our time between games. The Dads setup bags outside the hotel and because we all had our folding chairs for the games, we just used them here too. :) Lots of cornhole was played into the wee hours of the night.
The RV was parked next to cornhole and kids were in and out all day.
And to the side there was always some type of game being played by the players and ALL of the siblings. Here they are playing whiffle ball. 
Getting the boys game ready with a big breakfast.
And yes, baseball was actually being played as well. We only got in 2 games and we split 1-1. The 2nd day of our tourney was cancelled due to rain. 



Bringing 22 boxes of pizza to the hotel so the kids can eat and adults don't have to drive! (Happy Hour!)
Pool time of course...Oh, my ears. It was SO loud and the echoes...Eek!

The siblings are the best. They had so much fun too!

Breakfast. At a hotel. With buddies 💜
And they all love to cheer on their brothers!



We are...ELITE!
The team all rode together to the game so they could show up in the "team RV". So dramatic...but fun. 
With the team flag in the back.
Indiana, we never really thought of you as a family trip, but you were worth it! The Morin Family can check this state off our list!
