Amara's T-Ball Season!

What a season!  SO much fun to watch these little ones learn the game of baseball.  Amara killed the ball off the T!

 She also stretched alot

 and wiped and picked

 and looked around alot

and compared shirts with teammates

 But she was one happy girl!

 and she did learn to stay better focused during the game and cheer on her friends!

We loved having the opportunity to coach her and watch her grow and develop!

Alaric's Last P-Nut Game

Alaric had a great season in his first year in Peanut League.  He learned to hit without a t

 He learned to catch

 to have confidence

 go after the ball

 and have fun doing something new and difficult!

so proud watching him play!

Love my friends from Champaign.  We are now all over the country and were able to get together for a playdate this morning while the hubs all went golfing!

Not sure who had more fun...the kids to play or the moms to catch up!
