Baseball…Cancelled or Still On?

Unless you've had your head stuck under a rock, you've most certainly seen all the dangerous weather that the South has been pummeled with over the past days and weeks.  With flash flooding and tornado watches that led to extremely severe weather, well it has caused the boys schedule be a little crazier then usual.  It seems almost every game has been cancelled then rescheduled then scheduled again due to all the rain outs and flooded fields.  When trying to decide where to sign the boys up to play ball, we chose an organization that only required one practice and one game a week, which seemed totally doable with two boys, but due to all the crazy rescheduling, it's turned out to be quite an intense load with makeup games or practices several nights a week between both the boys.  So though, I enjoy baseball, and getting to watch these boys play, I will be honest and say, I'll be ready to have some flexibility back as we head into summer.

Though the season has been crazy I managed to get a few great pictures of the boys and their sweet fans.  So here's a little taste of what we've been up to out at Burns Park.   Lawson has quite the natural ability, he can throw harder then most of the boys on his team and when it releases from his hand its usually a hard line ball flying in the right direction.

Oh my word.….MELT.MY.HEART!!!

And here's the cheering section…

(Notice the cowboy boots…we don't leave home very often without them!!)

As for Peyton, he is one of the fastest runners on his team.  When he gets a good hit on the ball, its fun to watch him burn it in around the baseball field.  In several games he's been the first to score.  He works hard and stays very focused out on the pitchers mound.  The games we HAVE gotten to play, have been pretty fun to watch!!

Learning good sportsmanship is fun to see develop, whether its the whole team shaking hands or it's one of them helping another teammate up off the ground.  It really has been fun to watch this season!
