Take Me Out to the Ballgame

Carter decided that this fall he wanted to play baseball instead of soccer.  We are so fortunate that he was able to get on a team with his best friends, coached by their fathers.  Today was his first official game and we are so proud of him.  He hit 3 out of his 4 times at bat.  Unfortunately, we have to work a little on his speed to first base as he was thrown out all 3 times.  He played 3 innings as catcher and 3 innings as pitcher.  He threw 2 players out at first and caught a pop up fly ball.  A great effort and although they didn't win, we couldn't be prouder of his first game as a baseball player.

Getting a few catching pointers and warm up from dad before the game

Had to get a picture of him in his catching gear

Love him!  

Sweet little sister, his biggest fan.  but lets be serious, she is in it for the snacks!

And the Big Sister, his biggest critic.  But also one to cheer him on and be super proud when he plays well.  

Loved that after the game both teams met on the pitchers mound and prayed

Carter and his best buddies, Max and Clayton

First at Bat.

Landon, Carter, Max and Clayton.  They may have lost the game but their spirits were still high.  Love the memories he is making.
