Spring Baseball

Baseball was...interesting this year...the boys loved it and hated it at the same time. When they were playing their games they loved it! But getting them there was another story. It got better as the season went along. Andrew was in the McCammon league and Joshua and Caleb were in the Chubbuck league so it made for interesting conflicts when one game was in Lava while another game was in Chubbuck.

Andrew played 2 years ago and wouldn't step foot on the field without mommy, but this year he did great and got in the game and played on his own. Does that mean my little boy is growing up?!

Joshua actually didn't want to play baseball this year but I thought for sure he would want to when game time came. The desire didn't come right away like I thought so definitely I learned a lesson. Next year I will not push the issue! I think all in all though he had a good time.

Caleb by far had the biggest learning experience with baseball this year. As the boys get older the game gets more competitive. The game was not always fun and games but Caleb learned a lot! And I think he's grateful in the end for that.

Caleb played 3rd base quite a bit this year and had some amazing plays. One team they played against had a girl that was probably the best player in the league. When she was up to bat she hit the ball pretty well. But one of Caleb's team mates scooped the ball up and rocketed it to Caleb and Caleb caught it, swung around and tagged the girl out. It was awesome!
