I am really late in sharing this, but I wanted to wrap up Lincoln's t-ball year. He had a great time playing t-ball for the first time. He was on the Razorbacks team and had a super coach in Coach Tommy. We could see so much improvement in his playing by the end of the season and he really did have a lot of fun.
The way they play is that each player bats twice and they go through the line up for each inning. So, they play 2 innings. Some teams wanted to play with outs and others didn't. It depended on the coach and how serious they were. Lincoln was #1 so he usually batted first the first inning and last the last inning. This meant that he always got to run the whole set of bases on his last at bat.
This was the last game of the season. Look at how much more serious he was compared to the first game. He has his hands on his knees and he is paying attention. At the beginning, he was more into kicking up dust. Ha!
I love how this guy runs. He has such a long stride and he gets those arms a-going. Ha!
LOVE!!!
I had to share this video of his best hit. He hit it practically to the fence!!!
His coach gave him the game ball that day! So cool! He was so proud!
After one of their games, one of the moms brought water balloons and they had a very quick water balloon fight!
We had an end of the year party at our sponsor's house one Saturday. They had an above the ground pool, a couple of bounce houses/slides, and a water slide. The kids all had so much fun.
Layton jumping into the pool!
We had an awesome cupcake cake in honor of our team, the Razorbacks.
Coach Tommy got Matt, our sponsor (Alcoa Chiropractic), a plaque to go on his wall at his office. Matt and his wife were super nice and great sponsors!
Then Coach Tommy presented each kid a trophy. It was a baseball mitt and he put one of the balls they used to practice with in each one and signed each one telling them what a great year they had. Awesome idea.
Lincoln could not wait to get his trophy.
We all got Coach Tommy a really cool plate. Each kid put their finger print on it and then they turned each finger print into a baseball. So so cute!
One last "Gooooo Hogs!!!!" What a great time!! I hope Lincoln wants to play t-ball again!!!
