Joey had his first baseball game of the season today. His coach is really great. He takes the game VERY seriously and has truely been teaching them so much. Yesterday his practice was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours and ended up being over 3 1/2. The kids were sooooo hot but watching them play today it all paid off. It's Joey's first season of Bronco and they don't have a limit on how many runs per inning. The first inning they went through their lineup twice and scored 13 runs! It was so exciting. Joey got a great hit and slid in home and made it in a split second. I was holding my breath!
The whole family was there to watch the game. Even Grandma and Goldie. Our friend, Amy, even brough her darling little boys to cheer him on. This year is the first year we've played with people we know so it made the game even more enjoyable. I made homemade baseball cookies and the kids gobbled them all up. Joey was so cute. I volunteered to be team mom even though I'm Noah and Zach's team mom (and room mom too). Joey got in the car and thanked me and gave me a hug. He sure knows the way to my heart. I ran right home and started baking. I'm so thankful that I can be there for all these moments in their life. It's such a priveledge to be their mom.
I love this sweaty shot of Joe. I don't know how he played in their black uniforms with all that catching gear on.
