whobody is a tee ball STAR?

Keaton LOVES tee ball. This year Jason and I decided to take on coaching, so we got involved too! In Guttenberg, the tee ball league takes kids going into Kindergarten and First grade....so this was Keaton's second year as a tee ball star.  Jason helped coach last year, and decided that we could handle being head coaches this year. Our team was the "Tigers" and we had so. much. fun.  The kids had games every Saturday morning and Monday evening.

Below is a picture of Keaton ready for a ball at '1st'.  The kids all fought over playing first so we had to take turns.... It was amazing how much they all improved, especially at fielding the ball, by the end of the season.
Keaton is a right handed kiddo who bats left handed (well trained by his dad who does the same).  He swings for the fences every time! In tee ball, the coach pitches to the kid 4 or 5 times, and if they don't hit it by then, we get the tee out. Keaton did great at batting....I believe that he only used the tee one time.
Did I mention that he has his socks pulled up because he truly believes it makes him run faster? I had to convince him to wear the white ones every week....he always wanted to wear colored/striped/patterned ones.
He really LOVED tee ball and is a little sad to have it be over....not to worry though, soccer is starting soon.
