Take me out to the Ball Game

Rachel and Jacob both played baseball this year and loved it. Rachel has improved so well in the last year. She got really good at hitting and catching. Rachel's team was the gray dolphins .

Jacob played t-ball this year as well. He played on a team with all the kids from the neighborhood. Jacob's coaches were two 14 year old boys from our neighborhood. They were wonderful. The kids loved them. Jacob had a great time. I was really worried about Jacob and how he would do. Well the first game Jacob got up to bat and right after he hit the bat his coach picked him up and ran him to 1st base. It was the sweetest and coolest thing. From then on every time Jacob went up to bat somebody would pick him up and run him to 1st base. Jacob said to one of his coaches after one game that they played a good game but they needed to run him to 1st base faster. It was so cute. Jacob's team was the orange gators.

Kaelen has actually gotten great at hitting the ball as well. Kaelen loves balls and has since before he could walk. He learned in the last month to hit the ball. He has the ball on a tee and then he hits it. He is really good at golf and soccer too. He will hit balls with a golf club and is very accurate too. He also loves to run around the yard kicking a soccer ball. I have never seen somebody so young hit and kick a ball so well and accurately. It is so fun to watch him play. He plays all the time too. He is always outside wanting to play ball.
