Little League Season!

The boys had such a fantastic baseball season this year! They learned a lot, made new friends, got to play their favorite sport, and had a ton of fun!!! That was the most important aspect of course! :) This year they were on the Angels, and before the season began, we did not know anyone else on the team. But by the end, the boys were able to meet and play with all of these boys and truly made some wonderful friends. Their coach was absolutely amazing....we will definitely request him again next year. Coach Jeff was truly amazing with these boys. He was so patient and kind with every single one of them, and always tried his best to teach and guide as he could, but honestly to mostly be a cheerleader for them. All of the boys loved him, which says a lot.
All in all, the boys played about 10 games against kids between the ages of 5 and 7....they were just about the youngest on their team. They played all positions, including infield and outfield, and were able to bat in just about every order they could including leading off. They were so serious about it also, it was adorable to watch. They were set for every play, and did exactly what they were supposed to do on defense, including baking up the infield and throwing plays to first base. I absolutely LOVED watching them, I was seriously mesmerized! Even Emery would sit and watch them play, cheering along for them the whole time!
What a FUN season!!!! We loved it!!!!!! Thank you Coach Jeff!!!!!!!!!!

 After the last game we had a party at Coach Jeff's home to celebrate the wonderful season. The boys had a BBQ, some baseball cupcakes, and some awards with trophies. Everyone had such a wonderful time, they were sad to see it end!!! We also made fun gifts for all of the coaches, and had the kiddos sign baseballs for them just like the pros. They all thought it was a fabulous idea! :)

SUPER CUTE! I love seeing these little kids 'living their dream' and participating in things they see big people or their role models doing. Their imaginations are amazing. Way to go Dylan & Lucas!
