Fall Baseball Season Opener



















It is that time of year again--fall baseball season here in Florida. Us southeners are fortunate enough to have beautiful weather during the fall/winter season which allows for an "extra" season of baseball. This is just great for Owen because he LOVES it! Grant is just starting this year and he's not so sure about baseball yet. He says "it's too hot and the bugs are biting". Maybe once he gets to play a game it will get into his blood too!

Owen is playing for the machine pitch team the Cardinals. Daddy is the head coach for Owen's team and the assistant coach for Grant's t-ball team the Riverdogs. Mommy is playing a role too, as Team Mom for the Cardinals and "assistant" team Mom for the Riverdogs.

Thursday night was the season opener for the Cardinals. We played the Nationals and had a rough 1st game. The weather was not cooperating and we had to stop mid-game because of lightning and when we resumed the game we only played maybe a half hour untill the game was called again. We all still had a great time! Owen had a base hit and this was his first time playing catcher! He did great and seemed to really like it. We all are looking forward to his next game.
