1st Baseball Game...Super Saturday

Saturday was Super Saturday here, which means the start of baseball season. TJ has had practice the last 2 weeks. For Super Saturday they have a player's clinic and coaches clinic for an hour. This Saturday it rained the entire time. TJ's hair was just dripping wet. He loved it though. After the clinic, they had a drawing...sadly TJ didn't win anything, but he was okay with that. We then had an hour off for lunch. Gracie didn't want to go with us, so she was at Grandma's house and we headed over there for lunch. Grandma had bought some new puddy stuff. And the kids played with that while I made them some very nutritious Ramen Noodles. At one point Gracie told me to look at her...here is what I saw:

She's an elephant! Hilarious! She is such a hoot. Very creative.
Anyway...after lunch TJ and I headed back to the ball field. Everything was wet, but the rain had stopped at least. TJ's team in the Yankees. He got a new shirt & hat. #7. Lucky # 7 in fact. ;)
So here is the handsome little ball player ready to make a catch.

And here he is ready for a pitch.

Being #7, he was 7th to bat. I'm proud to say he was the first one on the team to hit a ball from the pitching machine rather than the T. He hit the second pitch and ran for first base! Way to go TJ!!!

Here he is rounding third, but he decided to go back and wait it out at third.

Waiting on 3rd with his coach near by.

Walking back to the dugout after successfully making it to home plate! WOO HOO!!!

Okay this is a little difficult. He is playing pitcher. They have 1 kid on each side of the pitching machine, playing pitcher. He is on your left side. The little guy in front of his coach with the white hoodie. He got a grounder and got it to first base, to get the runner out! He was on a roll!

Here they are after the game is over and they just said a cheer. Time to high five everyone....

Back to the dugout for treats!

TJ loves to "hang around" in the dug out.


Games will now be on Tuesday and Thursday. Right after Karate class....can you say busy?

Baseball

It's Baseball season! And TJ has started practices. He loves baseball and he couldn't wait for the season to start. I couldn't get my phone camera to take a picture when I wanted, so here he is swinging....he missed in this shot, but it's the clearest picture I got.

And hear is a picture of the weather while we have practice. WINDY!!! It was really windy yesterday, when I took this picture. Gracie and I finally went and sat in the truck while Tony watched the last bit of practice.

Games start Saturday and TJ is so excited. More pictures to come...you know me.
