T-ball

Allie had her first T-ball game last night. Since the game was cancelled Saturday, they scheduled a double header! They are only four years old, so you can imagine after one game they were ready to for it to be over. The highlight for Allie was that Ethan came to her game. She had quite a big cheering section. Mrs. Charlotte, Mark, Mandy, Ethan, Nina, their friends from Memphis, and of course Grandma. She loved it! I know I posted a lot of pictures but I took a lot! (we were there for two hours). Allie played well and she got the game ball for the first game.

Here is Allie in her uniform.

Here are the girls together.



Allie's coach told her to play the pitcher position first. She doesn't actually pitch since it is t-ball. If you are the pitcher you have to wear a helmet with a face mask on it. Allie didn't like the helmet, so she didn't want to be the pitcher. So her coach moved her to another position and put a boy in the pitcher position. He got quite a few balls hit to him. In the second inning she wanted to be pitcher. After the game I asked her why she changed her mind. She told me that the boy got a lot of balls hit to him, so she thought she might like to be the pitcher after all.
