Put Me In, Coach!!

We pulled out of the driveway on Saturday, but it wasn't just a normal trip out of the house. I rolled down the window and joked with my neighbor, "And so it begins! The next 20 years of our lives..."

We were headed to the first of what I am sure will be many, many hours of team sports - our first T-ball game! Of course, it has taken me a while to whittle down the 300 pictures taken to the ones that show the best parts.

Here we are on the way to the game... The girls thought they won the lottery when they found out they would be on the pink team - they named their team Pinkalicious!


Lining up before the game for pre-game practice...


Beckham didn't quite get why he couldn't play too. It was sad - he stared and cried and begged to go in to the dugout. Good thing there were some fans who showed up to help him out...



Jane Bradley's first hit was great! She ran the bases like a champ...


Here are the cul de sac teammates - I wasn't kidding about Beckham's feelings about not being on the field...


They had a two-part defense... Half of the team on infield and half outfield... It really was more like honeybee t-ball... they all followed the ball like a swarm of bees...



I thought this photo was so sweet.. she's trying to make him feel better...


Proud girl running the bases! I love this one...


Notice the cute 3rd base coach helping her home :)


This guy snuck into the dugout after all...




This was taken during the game... Brad put his hand out to wave her to stay, and she grabbed it... so he just held hers back. So sweet.


End of the game huddle - Every girl on the team thought they won even though there were no strikes, no outs, and no one kept score... 


Beckham had to get out there after it was all over and show them what they were missing. What you can't see in this picture is that he pointed at the home run fence just before this to call his hit... 

Man, what am I in for?
