Play Ball, Leah!




No question that this kid loves to play ball. She goes back and forth trying to decide if softball or tumbling is her favorite. Makes no difference to me. She is good at both! She was very excited to get this season started. She loved being on a team with Audrey and Tatum and a few other girls.

She started the season strong...always got a hit, and didn't do too shabby with the offense. She quickly decided that she likes playing catcher. Mitch and I tried to tell her that it's hard on the knees and that it gets hot wearing the equipment. She argued and didn't believe us. In fact, I have pictures of her catching at probably 3 or 4 different games, and no pictures of her up to bat, ooops! But anyway, towards the end of the season, late June, she stated to change her tune a little bit. She realized that as the temp went up, that gear got a little bit harder to wear.

They finished the season out strong. The played great in the league tournament and ended up taking 3rd place. She showed a lot of heart. After the last game, the Gray's treated the team to a party at Krave. I didn't make it because I was with Kiersten at her game, but she had a great time. It was a great season!
