District Game 3

Here is Andrew cheering on his teammates. Today was not their day to make any runs. His team lost 0-11, finishing in just 4 innings. Several guys were able to get on base but none were able to score. It was a tough loss against their friends. In the end, I believe he feels a little relieved that he is finished with baseball. NO MORE PRACTICE.....that is til football starts next month, ha. Summer can now begin!!!
Over the past 3 1/2 months of playing baseball, Andrew has learned a lot about the sport. It was a growing year compared to years past. No coaches help out when the pitching isn't the best and no Tee is used. Everyone isn't a winner at this age in the game. He has learned determination, have fun while playing, sportsmanship, and hard work is needed to play sports. It was quite an accomplishment to be 1 out of 24 to be selected to represent Johnston.


Andrew is just beyond the fence there in left field.

Here is Ruthie eating her first taste of a lolly. She hasn't had any candy yet but I was desperate to keep her content while at the game. At one point she was out of the stroller, but she immediately found the mud and stepped right into it. Her toes were just covered in it. Good thing her sandals clean well in water. Since we were by the concession stand, I bought some lollies for myself. People that know me, I LOVE CANDY!! I just wanted to keep her in her stroller IF possible. The BIG storm last night, left several large mud puddles around the complex. I gave in and gave her a lolly. As you can tell, she LOVED it!!
