As you can see, Opening day for Little League was ever so exciting! Kaleigh was bored out of her mind! We had to be there at 8:45am to wait....then at 9:15am all the teams ran out on the field to wait... Announcements were made, people were thanked, a baseball player (used to be in the big leagues from our city) made a speech, awards for the volunteers were given out, the Mayor made a speech, sponsors were thanked, blah blah blah...anyway, then we had to have our team and individual pictures taken. That was to take place at 11:40am. Well, by this time it is about 10am and Kaleigh has had enough (and so have I!) I decide to take a little break and bring Kaleigh with me, we go home for an hour or so, then we come back...to wait some more! Apparently the T-ball league took a long time to get photos taken (gee they are 4-5 year olds go figure!) So we didn't get to have Cole's team photo done until about noon! We finally got out of there at about 12:45pm! Whew what a long morning. But we did order a few photos and they did allow parents to stand behind the photographer to take a few photos ourselves!
So this photo is of Cole for his individual picture (I believe they take it from the waist up), I wanted a full shot so everyone can see how sharp he looks in his uniform! 
This last one is of the team. They are the Red Sox and every division has one! Even T-ballers.
The two team moms are in the photo and are pretty nice. The coaches are in the back holding the banner. There are 12 kids on Cole's team but one was on a fishing trip, and they have one girl, back row far right. They all seem pretty nice but I am a little sad Cole did not get on his friend Jack's team. There are a few of my old Moms Club kids on that team and it would have been fun to hang with those moms! Oh well, I hope Cole can make new friends with these boys!
First game is Saturday. With not one practice actually playing the game, they will need a lot of prayer to get through the game! We kept having our practices rained out! They went to the batting cages but they haven't really played through a real game type practice. Well, it isn't like they keep score anyway! Go Red Sox, Go Cole!

Go Cole!!!
As you can probably figure, Trevor didn't really enjoy the T-ball experience, and even without keeping score, it was more competitive than we needed.
Diana never did anything sporty.
When Connor starts Jr. High, he may have a chance to do regular PE, depending on how it works with an aide and his schedule. He did enjoy Special Olympics :)
Yeah, I don't know how far he will go with this, it might end up being too much schedule wise. He enjoys his alone (game)time. He either plays playstation or wants to play board games, which is totally alright with me! So if the sport thing isn't his thing, I don't mind a bit!
