"The Best Game Ever!"

That's a quote from No. 23 on the Snyder 7- and 8- year-old machine pitch team. Yep, you guessed it. Baseball season officially started for us tonight.

Jaden is number 23. Dad is the coach. And Jaxon and I are two very proud fans.

The White Sox did a great job tonight. Unlike t-ball -- this year we actually keep score. We won. And it was very exciting!

Before the game...

About to have his first at bat...

His first hit...
His first run... (notice the VERY big smile on his face!)
About to play catcher...
And a very proud little brother...
So, it was a great game! No. 23 did an awesome job. And I'm not just saying that because I'm his Mom either. Really! He hit the ball hard twice; got on base both times; made two runs; got three outs in the field and one was a double play where he caught a fly ball at first base and then stepped on the base to get the runner out. Woo-hoo!

I'm really surprised he actually went to sleep tonight. He was pretty pumped...and so was his Daddy. :-)

What a talented young baseball player you have! It couldn't have been all of those hours spent outside practicing all day, could it??

This looks like so much fun! We have lots to look forward to.
