Back to Baseball

 Awww...Spring Baseball!  Love it!  The weather is so nice and these kids are so fun to watch!  Perfect way to spend several evenings a week! Hudson LOVES it!
Hudson is playing with his same coach from last year on the Cubs. He was thrilled to have Coach Brad again.
 They start the season with a pre-season tournament!  Ya know...let's just right to it! If you lose you are out.  Well we won all 7 games and took home the trophy!  Pretty amazing! 

The last game was a nail biter!  This team gave us a run for the trophy for sure!  We were up 5-3 going in to the last inning.  We made some mistakes and let them tie it up.  Ended up going in to 2 extra innings before we finally got lucky enough to pull out the win!  It was exciting for sure..and LATE! We didn't leave the ball field until 10:30 on a school night!  Not sure it was my best parenting! But look at those faces!

 I went to several of the practices before the tournament and I must admit I had pretty much written this season off.  No one was hitting the ball at all! Guess they were saving it up for real games.  Because they have all bit hitting so well!
 This little guy has got a hit every time he is up to bat so far....which would be about 15-16 times now!  Because he is more mentally more mature, than previous years, "nerves" have started to set in with him.  He tells me he is nervous when he bats sometimes.  Bless his heart!  It is "all eye on you" kind of sport!
Here are some of his hits!
