Opening Day of Baseball Season

Opening Day of baseball season --- a success!  Caleb played his first game in the Minors and had the only hit on his team off the best pitcher in the League :)!!  Josh played his first game in 5 Pitch and hit a homerun!!  I struggle with the "bragging" when it comes to baseball.  I get so nervous for the boys, worry about their being too much pressure, worry that they aren't having fun, etc. and they love it every year and are good at it, too!  We had two games in a row on Saturday.  The boys are both at batting practice before their games so we spent from 2:15 - 7:30 p.m. at the baseball field.  Sounds long, huh?  But, we all love it.  It was relaxing (shock), a beautiful day, and both boys were smiling and having so much fun.  Caleb plays second base this year and loves that position.  Josh plays center field and is so focused and determined nothing is going by him :)!!

here is our Slugger

before the homerun

yes, he's #12 - for the Aggies

Caleb at bat - he prevented a "no hitter" from a kid who prefers to throw 

no-hitters every time he pitches :)

to a little boasting about my boys ... so proud of them, their hard work at practice, their "hustle" on the field, and most of all their desire to bring God glory through their attitude in this sport ... way to go Caleb and Josh!
