Sunday Night Fun

We have played co-ed softball on Sunday Nights for about 4 years.
I grew up playing competitive fast pitch softball.
He played little league baseball and was more of a football player.

I have enjoyed having this as our something.
We are grateful to my parents who watch the three monkeys
every Sunday while we play.

Some years our team is good and some years just OK

After each game the boys all run the bases

I play in-feild and he plays outfield. It's nice for both of us to have our competive outlet.
But really it is just Sunday Night co-ed Softball........

Such joys.........

Thursday

Sit Together Please

I have been trying for awhile to get the expose in my bathroom right. The lights are far from them, and the tub is in a dark corner. Then of course you have three children who don't really want to sit still for me. The whites are not turning out. So why not run an action to distract the eye.
High ISO, and no flash.

Next I need to start working on my flash exposure. I really need a lot of help with this one. Have a nice speedlight, but unsure of how to manipulate the settings.

Thursday

Sliding

What better way to learn to slide for T-Ball.

Photobucket
But it always make me think of this song:

When you're sliding into first
And your pants begin to burst
That's diarrhea, diarrhea

When you're sliding into two
And your pants are filled with goo
That's diarrhea, diarrhea

When you're sliding into third
And you feel a greasy turd
That's diarrhea, diarrhea

When you're sliding into home
And your pants are filled with foam
That's diarrhea, diarrhea

Name that movie?

Sunday

T-Ball Season is Over

I wish that my close friends and I could have our kids in every sport together. I looked forward to going to practice twice a week and the games on Friday. Even though it was 90 degrees out with no clouds and I would often forget chairs. It was nice to sit and talk for 45 minutes so many times a week during practice.
