Abby and the Arvest Blue Jays

Abby has started spring t-ball this year. Yeah, our first team sport. She plays for the Arvest Blue Jays. Saturday was our first game of the season. The kids did great, especially since most of our practices got rained out. It really was lots of fun to watch the kids try and figure it all out. This league does not keep score or count outs and each kid gets a bat every inning. It is all about teaching the fundamentals. We have a long but fun way to go. Hats off to our coaches who take the time with these kids. Handling that many five year olds is quite a challenge.

Abby was all ready to go in her uniform. Could she be any cuter!!!!


Up for her first bat. Yes, her batting helmet and her bat are pink. She picked them out. She looks like the Elle Woods of the t-ball league. (Legally Blonde)


Her first swing and she has a hit. Off to first base which was manned by a friend from school. You should have seen the little grin she gave him when she got to the base. No competition here....whatever.
Abby on third. Bless her little heart, it was so cold. She is asking the coach if she can get her coat from me after she scores.
Abby is the middle child in the picture. First time to take the field. It was a little confusing but she did great.

GO ABBY. . . GO ARVEST BLUE JAYS
