The River Dogs

Baseball season has officially begun!  Last weekend found us out at the ballpark for opening ceremonies Friday night and their first game on Saturday night.

Our fantastic coaches.

Running the bases.  We’re not exactly sure why Dallin chose number 27.  It really has no significance that we can think of.  Apparently he just likes that number :)

The first game Dallin made contact with the ball, but was tagged out at first.  It truly was a spectacular loss.  Something like 18 to 3.  Or it could have been more.  I kind of lost track.  Let’s just say our team has a long long way to go.  But I’m sure we’ll see lots and lots of improvement by the end of the season.

 

 

I am very proud of my little River Dog.

P.S.  I was completely justified at being scared of the baseball schedule.  It is insane – just this week alone we will have spent 3 evenings and 1 Saturday morning out at the ballpark.  We may have to set up a permanent camp there.

Let’s play ball!

Go River Dogs! That sounds so exciting. I never got to watch a brother play when I was growing up, but my dad played games every week (during baseball season) with the Navy. I loved all of it - from the dirt, to the concession stands, to the bleachers. Hopefully, we can make it up there for a game or 2 to cheer on Dallin and Hayden!
