White Sox Coach Pitch

Bailee decided she wanted to give baseball a try this year so she was part of the White Sox coach pitch team. (It just so happens that her dad's favorite baseball team is White Sox so that was pretty cool for us!) She had no prior experience with baseball whatsoever so it was all new to her. We were fortunate enough to be friends with the coach and his wife so they took good care of Bailee and she had to be the most improved player on the team. All the coaches worked with her and did such a great job at helping her. She went from not knowing how to hold the bat correctly to actually getting some hits! She did AWESOME and her season was AWESOME! It definitely was a busy season but it was so much fun. Her team took first place in their division and lost the playoff game to go to the championship game by just two points. The playoff game was such a nail biting game...it's the best baseball game I've ever been to! Bailee got an AWESOME hit that game and the entire White Sox fans section cheered and cheered for her. It actually brought tears to my eyes because all the parents were just as excited as her own parents were for the hit she got. To make it even better, Dad got home just in time to be able to be a part of the playoffs. Way to go White Sox!!! And Bailee, we are so proud of you for being brave enough to participate in and try new things. You are an amazing young girl and Mom and Dad love you so very much!

She was really nervous for her first game.

She was "baseball ready" everytime!

On the field before the playoff game...it was treated like a pro game...so very cool!

So happy to have Dad home and at the game!

Uncle Rick was quite proud too!

Team trophies

Diamondbacks T-Ball

We had a hot, busy, but fun T-Ball season. This was Braden's first year playing and he seemed to really like it...I think he liked it a little more than soccer because he didn't have to run the entire time! Braden even got a few hits without using the tee...woo-hoo! Our little D-back player was number 15.

My most favorite picture...so Braden!
