Baseball Season #1:T-Ball

The King Family started their first official baseball (t-ball) season this evening.

Because Jonathan's birthday is in August he missed the eligibility cut-off last year. Let me tell you...He was super excited about today!

Yesterday I spent about a million dollars on baseball paraphernalia. Cleats, matching sandals, wrist bands, water bottle, practice pants, and practice shorts. That doesn't count the baseball pants and socks that Chris already bought or the team shirt and hat we have yet to buy. Awesome. I found out tonight that every team member needs to wear a cup too. Great! How am I going to explain THAT ONE to Jonathan? "You need to put a cup on your privates to protect them." "No, not one that you drink out of."

Moving on...

Jonathan has two nights of practice a week and games on Saturday. Today's practice consisted of warming up and playing catch. Nice. It was cold and rainy. Even nicer.

The verdict is still out as to whether this baseball thing will be worth it. I am secretly hoping that both my boys are baseball stars...Don't tell anyone!






FYI...Drew took the previous three pictures from inside our car. We were both cold and wet so we spent the last half of practice shielded from the elements...
