T-ball, year 2--a whole different game

Amara was excited to get ready for T-ball this year--we've been practicing a lot in the yard and her coordination is really coming along!  She was drafted to the Indians, so we showed up, met Coach Jason and got to work.Q

Quickly, we realized that her old friend Abbie--the neighbor's granddaughter, was on her team too.  The two had fun kicking dirt in the field--funny how things come full circle.  They don't see each other often, but always loved playing together.

Amara took BP in the field, new bat in hand.  She has quite the swing, and didn't waste any time getting her practice in.

Cora, meanwhile, took every opportunity to ham it up with Gee-maw, who showed up to watch--we all tossed the ball and enjoyed suckers during downtime.

When it was time for the Indians to bat, Amara walked right up and knocked the first one good! She took off down the first base line and took her position on the bag.

I think she and the little girl there were comparing fashion notes, clearly.  Up next she took the field and got to field one ball--they all just kind of run for it when it's hit, so even getting one is pretty impressive, she was pretty happy.

She went to spend the night with Grandma after the game and got some alone time. It's a short 6-week season, so I hope we have a great time this season too, I think next year it's coach-pitch, wow!
