Wacky Wednesday!!!

So Wednesdays around our house are crazy! They used to be my favorite day because we didn't have dance, horseback riding, nothing and I love to watch Criminal Minds. But now, I am extremely thankful for DVR, so that I can still keep up with the show. NOW, Wednesdays are full of BASEBALL/SOFTBALL!

Kolin has practice first and he is playing tee-ball!! I was so amazed at him last night! He can really hit the ball, and not off the tee, but when it is pitched to him!! We tried to play ball 2 years ago, but he was more interested in filling the coaches' shoes full of dirt and sand! This year is a whole new year! He participates in practice, listens to the coaches, and is really trying his best!! I am so amazed! He seems to really love playing baseball! The coaches are so impressed with him!! It is such a difference from the first time we tried to play! It is a joy to watch him enjoy the team sport so much!! Here are a few picof him from last nights practice

Then off to Kailee's practice! Kailee is playing softball, and I am trying to help coach! That is very interesting! I group of tween girls, some that live for softball, and some that just play it for fun! It is quite a combination! We work on actually fielding the ball, getting along, hitting the ball, remembering to throw the ball, getting along, making good throws, getting along, running the bases, and next week we are going to throw in trying to actually pitch the ball and getting along! Did I mention getting along? Yeah, it seems that the girls that go to school together don't like outsiders, and my daughter is an outsider, as is a few other girls. So we are really trying to build teamwork! Last night was a good practice! Let's all pray that next week will be even better, because we only have a few more practices before games begin!
