Spring has sprung!

And so has baseball season. We are very active in our local baseball organization this year with 3 of our boys playing. Adam is playing T-ball, Hyrum is playing machine pitch and Ben is playing his 2nd year of PeeWees. We have been crazy busy with practices every week night except Wednesday, and last week was the first week of league games.
Hyrum started out with a coach pitch tournament in Ringling. His team won their first game on Friday night, and had two really close games on Saturday afternoon.

Hyrum's first time at bat. He didn't get a hit, but he did get hit with the ball.

He got to play the pitcher position when fielding even though he didn't pitch.

Adam's first game was on Tuesday. I didn't get any good pictures, because we were facing the sun. Adam had another game on Thursday. Not only did Adam's team win this game, but Adam got his very first run.

Adam up to bat. 

Running to 1st base. This is the first time he made it to 1st without getting tagged.

Waiting at 1st for the next batter to hit.

Woohoo! He made it to 2nd base.

Rounding the corner at 3rd base to run home.

Crossing home plate.

Ben played his first game on Tuesday too, but I didn't get any pictures from his game for some reason. Thats what you get for trying to watch three different game on the same night, and because I was cheering so loud. Ben's team scored two runs, and he was one of the runs. Way to go, Ben! Ben's team had another game on Thursday, but Ben got sick during Field Day at school and couldn't participate in the game. He was there to cheer on his team mates though.

Hyrum had his first league game on Tuesday. This was also the first time to bat with the machine pitching which makes the pitches more accurate. 

He didn't get a hit, but he was so close.

Tonight starts week 2 of baseball games galore. Thursday the boys all play at the same time on different fields, so I will be running like a mad woman around the ballpark trying to catch a little of each game. It should be interesting.

I know it has been way too long since I last posted on here. There hasn't been much going on here in Oklahoma for us lately except baseball practices galore. The boys have there first official league games tonight, and I will be posting pictures. Other than that, I have been trying to prepare for Girl's Camp in June and Youth Conference in July. Also, Hyrum is going to be taking the discussions with the missionaries starting this Saturday. I love that he has expressed interest in doing this before he is baptized. It's hard for me to believe that he is going to be 8 in just a couple of weeks, and then he will be getting baptized the first weekend in June while Michael's mom is here. They grow up way too fast. So, stay tuned for some good posts coming up soon.
