At Bat

The mass confusion started when the kids got their chance at bat. Konner, for instance, would hit the ball but instead of running to first base, he would want to chase down his own ball. When we finally got him on first base and the next kid hit the ball, Konner wanted to chase down the ball instead of running to second base!!!! This continued until he was on third. It finally clicked and he went running home when the ball was hit. Fortunately, my kid was not the only one doing this. We had to have a parent at each base to help these kids find their way "home!" So every time the ball was hit, everyone started yelling and screaming!!!! It was one of the most hilarious things to witness!!!! I had a lot of fun out there with them but more importantly, Konner had a lot of fun and didn't even want to leave after almost 1 1/2 hours of practice!!!!!











The Gang

It's been a while since I last posted anything. But I wanted to share with you the pictures from Konner's first T-Ball practice. There are 12 kids on the team including Konner's best little buddy, Jackson. They all learned the basics yesterday. They learned about home, first, second and third bases. They practice running them and then they practiced with each coach, in small groups, how to throw and catch the ball. Amazingly, they all did pretty well at this stage. They followed directions better then I ever thought they would! But that success didn't last long. When it came time for batting - it was MASS CONFUSION!!!!!!

First Bath

Buster got his first bath (with us anyway) and was not very happy about it. I thought with him being a water dog and all - he'd love it! Maybe next time.
