Vacation, The Home Run!

This is our 8yr old grandson on his way to the batting box. This was the first game of his baseball tournament. My husband and I , on vacation and spending a fun week at our oldest daughter and family, had a absolute great time.
Here he is slugging the ball, you can see the ball if you look real close. He hit a line drive and he was surprised when it turned out to be a HOME RUN! YEA! YEA! His very first home run and we were there to witness it. He told me it was because we had practiced for over a half hour that very afternoon in their back yard. I'm not a very good pitcher but he sure was able to slug a bunch of them. Several over their fence and into the neighbors yard or field in back of their yard. Wat a precious proud glance toward his family after the home run.


This is Papa on the left and Dad on the right just watching and cheering him on.



This is how our two youngest grandchildren watch the game. A lot of goofing off, giggling and eating treats. What a fun way to watch big brothers baseball or big sisters softball.




Mom of course, like her mother, "ME", is busy with the camera trying to catch some good shots and memories on photo's.

This is our granddaughter as the catcher. We had the fun opportunity to watch her team win its first game of their tournament and then lose the second game to the best team in the tournament. It sure was fun to watch and be there with the whole family to Cheer her on.
She also was the pitcher for one inning. They have a great coach who gives every girl the opportunity to learn all the positions.
