Matthew's Baseball

I started looking back to the last few posts and realized it looks like I have a Mckenzie blog! Not that I don't love her, but I thought my other kids might want some of them on here :) I have been so busy this summer that I have hardly had any time to blog. So these pictures are back from June when Matthew was playing on the peewee league. Justin coached this year and they had a lot of fun. Matthew played on the Diamond Backs and he really improved this year. I was really proud of him for learning so much.
He was trying to go get the ground ball but the pitcher looks like he is beating him to it.
Up to bat. For the first part of the season and little into the end, he didn't want to swing. Justin took him in our backyard to practice thinking he couldn't hit and he hit almost every ball Justin would pitch to him! We figured he was just getting stage fright. He did swing a little more when we told him he could do it.
He is so excited to play again next year. I will never understand why they end the season so early! It finally starts to warm up and stops raining for the games and then they are done!
