Blastoff to Fastpitch

It's ball season around here, officially fastpitch time. We never really stopped playing over the winter, but it was all clinic focused and just a few opportunities for actual games.
And then when try-outs came around, teams were announced and practices started, we faced a never-ending winter and snowfall.
Finally, the fields opened just in time for opening ceremonies (literally the same day!). The teams marched out on the fields with their team banners and then it was off to kick-off day scrimmages.
 
 
 
That's Sidney out there on the mound, testing her hand at pitching this year. She's taken clinics all winter (and before then). Working her heart out. We have a long ways to go, but considering she struck out the first batter she faced, I think she was pretty proud of herself :) And we were too!
 
Regan started out behind the plate, her favorite place to be. She too has worked hard in the off season at catcher's clinics and it sure shows! We are so proud of her growth in the last year. And why on earth anyone would want to be behind the plate is beyond me :)
 
 
Looking forward to an amazing season with these two awesome teams!
