Baseball days

This year Britton played 8 yo baseball for the Yankee's. It such a crazy season in our life, living between the ballpark, church and home. It adds a level of stress, but the joy in watching Britton play is worth every moment of it. Chesney and Cade love going to the ballpark. Cade stands at the fence and yells, "Go Britton, Go!! Go Yankee's Go!!
Chesney made a couple of new girl friends and they sit on the sidewalk and color and play school. Britton played left field this year. His first year to play in the outfield. He was bummed to not be playing in the infield this year, but he did awesome! Our first game, he caught 2 pop fly outs and got the game ball. Every game he caught one to three outfield pop fly's! One of our tournament games he caught 4! Keith was walking to the ballpark from the car one night. He overheard two boys talking. They said, " Hey, lets stop and watch this kid. He's the great left fielder boy that everyone is talking about."
Although Britton had a great season and played well, I was most proud of the comments that we received about how great Britton was as a kid. Each night after the game a coach, parent or team Mom would come tell us how great Britton's attitude is and what a great boy he is! The coach nick named him Smiley, for his good attitude.These comments made me the most proud!
Overall we won about half of our games and ended the season taking 2nd place in our tournament. Another great baseball season! So proud of you Britton,
oh I mean Smiley :D
