Spring Training Has Begun....

Eddie and Brandon practicing catching and throwing

We had some crazy warm weather this weekend so Eddie and Brandon took full advantage of it to get in some batting practice in the back yard. Baseball season will start in April so no time like the present! I sat out back reading my book enjoying the 65 degree weather and enjoying the laughter of the boys and their dad.

Ryan tried to join in and take a few hits but got a little frustrated when he could not connect the bat and ball. We made sure to tell him he was doing really well and that it took Brandon a while before he caught on. Looks like t-ball will be in our future for him next year. All though he has been showing interest in soccer too.

Dad, let me try, let me try!!!

Finally, after 3 hours they were all wiped out and we went inside to cool off. Brandon has since been wishing for warm days so he and Eddie can practice more. Eddie has decided not to coach this season so he can sit back and enjoy watching Brandon play ball. Brandon is very excited about that. This is his last season of Coach Pitch. Next year he will have to go through the tryout process and be drafted onto a team. Oh the joys of Little League.
