John is two weeks into a five week fall softball season. This team isn’t necessarily the same quality as the Hoppers summer team, nor are the fields as nice as van Valkenberg, but John is still having fun. The fields at Bryn Mar do not have any fences around them which is one of the downfalls, but on the upside the lack of fencing allowed John to hit his first home run ever! The outfield players actually moved in a bit when John came up to bat but he showed them. A hard hit to right-center and John was off rounding the bases for his first home run. They ended up losing the game several plays after this at-bat but John was still pretty excited about his hit – As he should be!!
The kids and I sat and watched the game while we had a picnic dinner but they didn’t want to sit for much more than that. My sister was also at the game since her boyfriend, Nate, agreed to help out them team due to player shortage. Nate did a great job and I was happy to spend time with my sister!
Here are a few pictures (of the kids) that I took while the game was going on. :)
I think this is too many bats for this little guy to hold! And he doesn't know yet that he could just let go and drop them - he just stood there waiting for someone to take the bats from his hands.
Some cute pictures of Papa Lewis and Owen!!
To celebrate John's home run, Rachel and Nate took us to a Yogurt Bar. Frozen yogurt and pretty much any kind of topping and syrup you could imagine!
