She Swings!!!
She is watching the people walk by (good thing they hadn't pitched yet)
Playing Second base!
Getting ready to hit the ball!!
OK so It has been quite a while since I updated and we have been really busy with lots of things. I will start with softball first. Mckenzie decided this year she wanted to play softball with some friends. So we signed her up for the city league. Well I got a call on day from the city and was asked if I wanted to Coach. Of course I said NO!! Somehow I got roped into it anyway. It was a lot of fun, but a WHOLE lot of stress as well. It was great to get out and do something and the boys LOVE the ball field (they both are also playing ball now.) On the first game of the season as Kenzie was sliding home the pitcher from the other team went to tag her (she was already safe.) Well in this process somehow the girl hit her helmet that then hit Kenzie's collar bone, which caused a hairline fracture. This being said I thought it was the end of her season (more like wished.) She did end up coming back and playing. Then at one of our practices she was fielding a ground ball and received a Very black eye. I was beginning to think that maybe sports weren't a good thing after all. Kenzie is a very good athlete and mainly played outfield, she is a very fast runner, but we soon found out she was a really good 2nd baseman as well. I, however, found that coaching wasn't my thing (plus I hate dealing with the parents.) It was a fun experience (all but the city politics) I had a great time getting to know the girls on my team. I just wish the parent would have remembered that it was a city rec team!!!
