New Camera for Fathers/Mothers Day

So Bethany got me (us) a new camera for Fathers (Mothers) Day.  It is fun.  I figure that this world is very beautiful if we look in the right places, so I want to pick up photography as a hobby as a way to appreciate the world a bit more. 

Here are a couple of pictures of two of the most beautiful things in the world.

Buy me some peanuts and Cracker-Jacks

We are coming up on the end of our first experience in little league and what a blast it has been. We have enjoyed watching these little guys improve their skills drastically and become a pretty great team. We have not participated in any kind of "official" team sport with Evan yet so it was a fun adventure for us all. I discovered that my big boy Evan is actually quite little. He is the smallest on his team, but the great part about that is he got to be #1. They named themselves the Red Raiders and as soon as we arrive at the game Evan is checking out what color we are playing against and then he will say, "Hey Mom, we're fighting the purple team day." I think we finally have him convinced that it is not so much a fight, but just playing. He has a good little arm and is quite accurate. He doesn't use the T as much anymore as they pitch a couple first. I'm proud of my little baller and I look forward to many more spring days spent at the baseball field. I love ya Sport!
