T-Ball and Softball Season!

Ethan has wanted to play T-ball ever since he could talk and McKenzie was playing ball. This year he finally gets his wish. I have never seen anyone so excited for something...and for Ethan (those who know him know what I am talking about) this is the most excited I have seen him. He has practice every Thursday night and will have games on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Every night he asks, "How many more sleeps till t-ball?" I have never counted so many sleeps in my life! His coaches have purchased the team baseball pants (in white?!?) and I have to constantly battle him. I told him he must keep them spiffy for his first game, after that I have a feeling my washer and the bleach will be getting many workouts.

McKenzie, on the other hand, is playing softball this year. Her first year with all girls! It is so exciting to see her growing up and enjoying this sport. Jaime, Sami and Grandpa would be very proud of her "POWER" hitting. This girl can smash a ball!!! I see her being a GREAT hitter and fast runner. We do need to work on fielding, she isn't the best at throwing. You would think if she could hit the way she does she should be able to chuck a ball, not so. Must be a difference in where the "power" comes from??? All-in-all she is doing great and having fun.

Now for the schedule:

Ethan: Practice- Thursday
Games- Wednesday and Saturday

McKenzie: Practice- Monday and Thursday (until games start then only Monday)
Games- Thursday and Saturday

So I have to be somewhere Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, sometimes multiple places on some days!!! If you don't hear from me I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, just into the Baseball Season Pit!!!

(I will have some pics of the kids and maybe even some videos! when I emerge from the pit.)
