Take Me Out to the Ballgame

Evan could not be more excited to be starting his first baseball season!!  He is one lucky duck because the fields at the 360+ acre youth sports complex were completed in time for his first season!  They have at least 26 ball diamonds, and so far he has had two games on dirt fields, but he has had a practice on one of their turf fields.  The complex is amazing, and I cannot wait to see what the rest of the sports areas look like after seeing how fancy just the little league section of the complex is!  Evan is a sports fanatic, and he really is lucky to have such a well developed sports league right in his backyard catering to every sport he could possibly want to play, AND now he can play anything and everything at a crazy nice complex!
practicing fielding ground balls
practicing throwing before the game
sometimes he likes her, sometimes he's on the fence, but at the moment, gracie is evan's number 1 fan!!
making contact!  the white blob on the edge of the picture was the ball.
safe on second!
playing first base!  evan initially wasn't thrilled to be in this position because it is the position that sees all the action.  no matter where the ball is hit, every player is supposed to throw the ball to the first baseman.  but after a bit of practice, he is a bit more comfortable.  i feel for him though...i wouldn't be crazy about trying to catch some of the wild balls that these kids throw!
