T-Ball is Over

Last Friday night was Ally's last t-ball game. It was a ton of fun and I know that we can't wait until next year. Drew will also get to play. They should stay on the same team which means the same families. We have gained some new friendships in this small Iowa town through this experience that I would hate to lose! Many of Ally's teammates were sibilings so it was fewer people to get to know.

Here is the team picture.


She is trying to ignor her fan club while on 3rd base. She did glance over at us and give us a smile and a wave. Our sweet friends Luke and Betsy Kruse (soon to be) and Scott and Emily Gaskill came to cheer her on.

She played 1st base one inning and short stop the other. Typically kids don't hit the ball in the air, but tonight one of the kids did and flew to short stop and happened to land in Ally's glove. I say "happened" due to the fact that the girl hasn't quite figured that whole process out yet. It shocked her so much that she didn't squeeze and it fell out, but made a fun ending to the season. She is proud of that moment.

She got to be the last batter this inning. She hit it on the first pitch and ran really fast for her homerun!

Ally ... congratulations on your t-ball accomplishments. I'm so glad you like sports ... me too. :-)

Glad your mom is tracking your special moments. You will appreciate that even more than now someday (actually, both of you will). Go FISH is in town.

See you soon! Laura

LOVE the video! she is a pretty good little hitter, even though she hasn't quite got the catching thing down!
