Play Ball!!!

Can you smell it in the air? No, it's not the first flowers of Spring. It's baseball season! The Cactus League is in full swing here, but the best league around is, of course, Little League. Annie, now in her second season of t-ball is our only Little Leaguer this season. She's also the only girl on her team, but she doesn't seem to mind much.


She's number 6 on the Hurricanes. The t-ball rules changed a little this year. The coach pitches 3 times to each player and then brings out the tee if he or she doesn't hit it on the fly. Annie hit the pitches both times!


That gentleman walked across every one of my videos yesterday. He's kind of like Alfred Hitchcock, only not really.


Annie remained attentive while she was running bases.


And was right there in "ready position" when she needed to be.


The game seemed to be a little early for the boys.


They insisted on coming, though.

I'm sure they only came to cheer on their sister.


It's really just all about the snow cones, though, isn't it?

In other news:



We had an emergency visit from the Tooth Fairy last night!

She did great! And, it's nice that the boys came out to watch. What's the going rate for teeth these days?

Middle Kid said...

Our deal with the Tooth Fairy is 10 cents a tooth. The kids think I should have negotiated better.

When the tooth fairy visited here, she paid 25 cents, if I remember correctly, but she only visited once per child.

Oh, yes, I meant to say Good job, Annie.
