Put Me In Coach!!!

It's that time of year...when the field lights illuminate the night sky, your shoes are covered in dirt and you live, eat, and breathe softball. Having played ball since youth I have to say that for the most part I LOVE it. Yes at times it does get a bit tedious seeing as Buck has men's league Monday and Wednesday nights and church league takes place on Tuesdays and Thursday nights but its worth it and we hope that Mayce grows up loving the game as much as we do.
Buck was coming straight from work but Mayce and I "geared up" and headed out to the fields Thursday night. Mayce is turning into quite the big helper and decided to take care of my glove for me. For those of you who are laughing YES it is pink and just to let you know, Joshua said that if they would have had one in a 12 he would have bought one too, no matter what the color!!

During the games Mayce hangs out with all of our youth from church which works out well for everyone. Julia (who Mayce is pictured with here) has been helping out lately when we have a gap in child care and as you can see Mayce is loving it!! With Julia, who by the way until recently Mayce addressed as Loser (sorry Julia hehe), has come Danni, Courtney, and Kayln (sitting next to Julia). The thing we all find the most amusing are the adaptations of their names. Courtney will forever be known as Corny in our household and for Danni its Bambi, as for Kayln, she was doing really well but now she too has been dubbed Bambi??? Your guess is as good as mine!

Oh the joys of being little!!!
