First Tee Ball Lesson

Ben has been waiting a long time to play baseball with his kids.  Elaine wasn’t really interested, and Nolan didn’t understand.  But they both got children’s ball gloves for Nolan’s birthday…and so it was time for the first baseball lesson.

Ben set up a makeshift tee so they could practice batting.  Nolan enjoyed setting up the tee, but really never hit the ball.  It was Elaine that did a great job!  She hit the ball quite a few times, and Ben said she has good hand-eye coordination.  Maybe he has a future baseball team after all!

Maybe we’ll get him some cleats for his next birthday!

“Choke up on that bat…”

I love this picture – Elaine’s swing sent the tee and the ball flying!
