T-Ball for Nola

We as grandparents have set in the bleachers for many years of T-Ball, baseball and basketball games involving our grandsons.  A recent Saturday found us once again in the bleachers but this time it was to see our granddaughter in her first T-Ball game.  We were not sure how she would fair.

Since she has many boy cousins, we felt she would not be intimated to be on a team with all boys.  She turned four years old in September.  The team practiced six times and had two games scheduled.  We had a scheduling conflict so we only got a chance to go to this one game.

Nola Gives Us a Big Smile from the Dugout

We cheered her on.  She looked so cute in her uniform.  We thought she looked ready for the game.

Walter got her attention for a few posed pictures and then she was off for her game.


Yawn or Team Chatter - Unknown

Playing T-Ball is really hard work.  Nola had to concentrate on many things at one time.  She had to be "Baseball Ready", whatever that is and watch for the ball and keep her shirt in, and lots of other game needs.

Coach Gets the Ball on the Tee

When she was up to bat she got a good hit from the T-Ball stand and made her way to first base.

We lost our minds!  Nola got a hit!

Through the Fence We See Nola Reach First Base

This was an exciting day in the park for us.

The View is Good from First Base

The coaches took it from there and advised Nola when to run.  She had a great first game.  Now we look forward to next year's season.

God is good!
