T-Ball


 Before he makes it to the Major League, I thought I better document James' first offical baseball experience.  Jame has been playing T-Ball since the beginning of June and has been loving every game.  His skills have really grown over the summer and so has his love for the game.  Even on the hottest summer days, James has played with a smile, his enthusiasm undeterred by the heat.  Mark has helped as a coach and the girls and I have made it to almost every game. He's had lots of fans attend his games to cheer him on.  Special thanks to Grandma Judy and Grandpa Jim, Grandpa O., Bryce, Brennen, Auntie Karla, Kurt and other friends for being part of his fan club.  He will be bummed when the season ends on Wednesday.  I have loved watching my little boy grow up on the ball field this summer. 



 I love this kid!

My favorite sports star!!
