Baseball season in full swing

This was Wyatt's first year of kid-pitch baseball and we were fortunate enough to have a great team! One of the dads of a fellow hockey teammate offered to put a travel baseball team together, comprised of all hockey players, which allowed the kids to not only play baseball with all their friends but also allowed the games/practices to be scheduled around spring hockey! (Kinda ridiculous, but it was nice to not have conflicts!)
We had a really long winter and all of their practices were indoors until their first game, so the learning curve was pretty high once we got outside and started playing real baseball.
My nerves definitely got the best of me, watching Wyatt out there on the pitching mound!
And a few pics of Blake hanging with his buddies--all the younger brothers of Wyatt's teammates. These boys had lots of fun but were also known to get in to a bit of trouble. Here they were bringing a small tree over to show us--we never did determine if it was already broken or if they had broken it out of the ground.
Blake loved hanging with the 'big boys'
So much fun watching these boys get so excited and cheer one another on!
And once again, Blake finds his way to the gear!
(Doesn't matter that he has church clothes on--he can still fill in as catcher anytime)
