Baseball in Full Swing!

We have been playing a lot of baseball at our house and have lost many balls via storm drains in the street, dogs eating them, or Reed eating them! But, we hope to continue to get to play more this weekend.

We enjoyed a T-ball game of my nephews last week. Reed loved it, but soon found all the discarded seeds, crackers, and cigarettes more interesting than the game! Yucky!!! Thank goodness Grandma was there to help out. We had a great time and Connor and Caydan did so good. They both had some really good hits!

Today we picked up our Derby Twins player at the airport. His name is Dan Camou and he is a catcher from UC-Santa Barbara. He was greeted by a downpour of rain and was disappointed we weren't having any tornadic weather! He is a really nice kid and we look forward to getting to know him. He is most likely a keeper...he plays ball with Reed and the dogs! Should fit in nicely.

By the way...did you see my boy hitting that ball! This week he is batting mostly left and throwing right...sometimes he hits right, but he is much better and fluid from the left side. Look at that extension!

I have to agree, it is nice form. He is getting so big and that picture is adorable. I miss seeing both of you, we will have tom get together for lunch, dinner, drinks soon. I am glad to hear you got a good kid this year.

He is going to be famous for his swing someday...I just "feel" it! I was when my hit went through the neighbor lady's window! ;\ HA! He is SOOO cute!
