Baseball Saturday




This weekend was dedicated mostly to baseball. Nathan had his first t-ball game. It was a very eventful game. Nathan hit the ball and ran to first and then made it to second. The next kid hit the ball. Nathan made it to third. The next kid hit the ball. Nathan ran really fast to home but stopped about 3/4 the way there. Everyone started to yell at him to run faster because the catcher had caught the ball and was running to home plate to tag him out. So he started to run to home plate towards the catcher who was running to home plate and they both just stopped there and looked at each other. Everyone was screaming, "Touch the base Nathan!" over and over again. He finally touched base and scored. Yay! But then........the next time he was up to hit he was in tears because "everyone was laughing at him". In his mind they were laughing at him, but we were all just laughing at the funny situation. He didn't go up to hit the next time, but at his game yesterday he hit and scored again!



After the t-ball game we ended up going to Pigeon Forge to a TN smokies game. We went because the smokies were playing the generals (a AA team for the Mariners-Alex's favorite team). Alex brought the boys and got a ball signed by some of baseballs biggest prospects right now. We had a great time but left early because of bed time. The next morning Nathan said his eyes got a little watery because he missed the baseball game.
