The big game

Tuesday was our first Pee Wee T-ball game. We were pretty awesome. We got there 10 minutes early and saw the entire opposing team already there doing warm-ups and only 1 other Mariner there besides us. See this awesome banner? We didnt want to shell out any big bucks for a professional one so I offered to make 1 one that I printed on glossy paper. It was so beautiful, but guess what Fontana is windy and it only took a slight breeze to rip the whole thing down during the first inning!
PWT-ball is played 4 innings or a hour which ever comes first and you bat thru the entire line-up every inning. Also there are no outs, everyone runs thru all the bases one at a time.
We made it thru 2 innings.
Halfway thru the first outfield time (whatever that's called) Nate sat down on the field... it took encouragement from Uncle Joel to motivate him to chase the ball - which he did pick up a grounder once!
I think Nate's top 3 highlights of the game were:
#1 Scoring a "run" - he did this awesome 2 fisted victory dance
#2 The Team cheer at the end (but we said our team name instead of the others, whoops)
#3 Playing w/Uncle Joel's dogs afterwards
So if anyone is up for a good laugh, come see a game!
