Take Me Out To The (T-) Ballpark!

This week marks the finale of the 2012 T-ball season.  As always, it has been a fun experience for the kids. While most teams have between five and six kids from ages 3-5, our team fielded eight players due to the size of our families.  All the kids on the team are related as siblings or cousins, including three Whitakers, three Austins, and two Minks. 
At the start of the season, two of our 4-year-olds could hit from a pitch, while the other players used the “T” to make contact with the ball.  Within only two weeks though, all of our kids managed to hit from the pitch and some were even hitting it to the outfield!
Amusingly, the largest coaching challenge consisted of preventing the players from making dirt castles in the infield while the other team was up to bat.  None of them slid into a base, and yet they left each game covered in dirt from head-to-toe.  Nevertheless, we enjoyed popsicles after each game and (as pictured) received medals at the close of the season.
This weekend is the Amo Fish Fry, the league’s only fundraiser, and our team will be riding their Power Wheels thru town in the parade on Saturday.  Ideally the batteries will endure for the entire parade route, but I am sure I will end up pushing at least one car.  Following the parade, the fish fry is capped off by a wonderful fireworks display on Saturday night.  There will be great food, music, games, the parade, and fireworks; so if you are looking for some good family fun, come on out and support a terrific organization!
