Opening Day

The flag was flying and the sun was out......a perfect day for some baseball. Today was opening day for Tracy Babe Ruth Baseball. They put on a great Opening Ceremonies, get all the teams out on the field, throw the first pitch, have some great food and some games.

This year Chris is on the A's. he is having a great time and is very excited for the first game next weekend. I was just happy that he did not get on the Dodgers, I just don't know if I could have supported the team.

After all the formalities the 5/6 league then had a base running contest. Chris was hilarious running the bases and was even more excited to get a medal at the end. He ran it in 18.5 seconds. We were proud. It is going to be a busy season with 16 games and practices twice a week but we are looking forward to it.

Ready to run the bases
Rounding third going so fast the hat was flying

Look mom I got a medal

Dani had to indulge in a hot dog while waiting
Mommy and the little slugger!
