Hey Batter Batter

The Pirates had their first t-ball game last Saturday!  Boy are we in for a fun season!  Everyone had a blast watching our little rookies!  Each child has two times at bat and two times fielding.  They also force a home run after each "inning", so each child will have a chance to hit a "homerun" once during the season.

Our little slugger was a rockstar out there.  He swung the bat twice and hit the ball twice... that's what I call a great record for a 3 year old!  He didn't even hit the tee!  Way to go Hudson!

Our handsome SLUGGER!

 

What a good lookin' group!

 The 1st base coach holds a special place in our hearts!

 LOVE!

 Ok, so Mommy had to stop taking pictures while he was in the outfield... He was quite distracted!

 

Of course, Jill and I got all spirited with our baseball moms gear!  I have a pirates shirt, but it wasn't ready last week, but I will be sportin' it the next game!

 

 A high five and encouraging words from Daddy (aka 1st base coach)

Running through our tunnel after the game

 Of course, Kelsey and Hud!

 Jaden and Hudson have become great buds during our playdates!  Jaden is Couch Eric's son, and his wife, Corri, is a sweetheart.  We've enjoyed hanging out with them!

I love love love these two precious boys! This is a Mommy favorite! 

 

 Let the baseball begin!!
