Go Indians!














Alivia had her last blastball (tee ball) game this past weekend. If you ever need a good laugh - just watch 3-5 year olds play blastball for the first time! It was definitely a good experience for Liv. I am still not sure if she is going to be a sports star or dancer yet.

She had uniform (jersey) number 3 of course because when she picked her number she was 3 years old. She just couldn't understand why she had to keep uniform number 3 after she turned 4!!!

Here is how blastball is played:
Offense - Hit the ball and run to first (there is only one base). They did put all the bases out for the last 2 games so the kids could get use to running the bases for next year. By the time the runner made it back home - another batter had already batted!

Defense - Field the ball (with or without a glove) and try not to all pile on top of the ball. Once the ball is fielded - yell blastball (yes, a little strange) - then run to first base with the ball.

Here are Alivia's stats for the year...

Hitting - Very good hitter! Thank goodness she didn't get her momma's hitting skills.
Base Runner - She is generally a fast runner but on the field with the x-large helmet on - she is extra slow. Too funny!

Fielding - If the ball comes right to her she will get it! She did get a little boy out - woo hoo!

Field Manners - A+ for "A little too curtious". If she is running to first and the other player is trying to get her out -she will slow down so they can get to the base first. (Very cute but hard to watch!)

Can't wait till next year!


Swing batter!
