Take Me Out to the Ballgame...

We made it through sixteen ballgames! Tyler did coach pitch with the Dodgers on Monday and Wednesdays. Andrew did tee ball with the Indians on Tuesday and Thursdays. I started just calling everything baseball because if I said to get ready for tee ball and it was really a coach pitch day (or the other way around) the boys really let me know.
Thank you to everyone who has played with the boys over the years. (In the front yard at Gibby's and in the backyard at Aggie Village.) Tyler's coach mostly threw the ball underhand, but for Tyler he could throw it overhand. Almost every time Tyler hit the ball the coach would have to quickly move out of the way so he didn't get hit.
Lee was Andrew's team coach. A few of his coworkers found out he was coaching tee ball and started calling him "Coach". Then they found out his team was the Indians and they started calling him "Chief". Lee would have the team stretch and then run the bases yelling the name of the base they were on. (Thanks for the idea Scott.) It was cute to see the little kids call him coach.
Emma even made a new friend. This is a perfect time for ring-around-the-rosie.
