First Time for Everything!




We worked on this all season...not staring off at tractors in the distance and ready for the ball!


Batter up!


Go Hunta, go hunta (Haley cheered on her Bubba, always)!


A boy always looks good in his baseball pants!

This was Hunter's first year playing T-Ball. He wanted to play, but wasn't real interested once the season started. He loves hitting the ball, but wasn't really into fielding or running the bases. He was more interested in the John Deere rangers driving around all the fields than watching the ball. As the season progressed he ran the bases usually without prompting and at least stood in the ready stance waiting for the ball to be hit to him. However if the ball was hit to him...he usually stayed in the ready stance as the ball rolled right by him. He didn't quite figure out yet that sometimes you have to go after the ball and it won't just roll right into your glove as you wait for it. He had a lot of fun though with his friends and that is all that matters at this age right!

Right!.He has plenty of time to develop his slider, curve and fast ball.. His speed, home run swing and High Fives. We all had fun, that's all that matters.Thanks Hunter, Granddaddy T
