Go Scorpions!

Baseball has started. We originally signed Coltin up for the 10 and under league (a.k.a. kid pitch,) and Everitt to play on the coach pitch league. Coltin started practice 3 weeks before Everitt, so naturally Everitt went with to watch. Well on the 3rd or 4th practice they had all the boys out on the field playing/learning a position and realized they needed a batter. So they asked Everitt to help out. The coaches liked what they saw and asked him to practice with them. Our team is a young team with most kids being 7 or 8. Everitt was just as good as the older boys, if not better. The coaches were excited to have Coltin pitch, apparently he has a natural talent.  As practices went on and the first game approached we discovered that Everitt too has that pitching ability! That did it, he was officially recruited to be in their league. (Sorry Coach Pitch Team)  This was awesome for us, both boys on the same team made it more simple and more exciting. And since Justin had the time he was asked to be an assistant coach. He's enjoying that.
The night of their first game the coaches surprised us by putting our 6 yr old out to pitch first. He is so dang cute and did a great job. Coltin did great as 3rd baseman, and was one of few kids to hit the ball. They ended up loosing the game but it was fun. We are excited to watch the boys improve their skills and enjoy playing ball this summer.  GO SCORPIONS!
