I absolutely love little league baseball! I love watching every year as these little boys and girls learn the basics of the game and acquire the skills to play. The expression on their faces are priceless when they hit the ball or manage to catch a ball. Their joy at being able to play this all American game is contagious and just leaves you will this happy warm feeling all day after the game.
This would be our team waiting for the parade to start! Mrs. Stacy thought that these blow up bats would be "good" for the boys to "wave" during the parade. As you can see, they had other ideas on what to use the bats for!
Can you see all the excitment in their faces?
I have no idea what they were looking at but I love the expression I caught on his face!
The children really have a great time and can become quite boisterous during the parade, so please watch out for flying missiles, aka candy or you may find that you get hit in the head.
The parade ends at the little league ball fields where the opening ceremonies take place. All the teams line up out on one field with their coaches and someone sings the National Anthem. All the city officials are present for the opening ceremonies and someone is chosen every year to throw out the first pitch. Then the games begin! This year we actually had beautiful weather and I hope that everyone had a great time, I know I did!
In our little town, everyone loves Little League Baseball. Every year on opening day we have a big parade and the teams ride through town throwing out candy and prizes to the people lined up on the streets to watch them.
Below the teams are all lineing up at the middle school getting ready for the parade to start. The grown up "little boy" would be our coach "Andy" Our practices are never dull!

Is he not the cutest little boy you have ever seen! You gotta love those big blue eyes.
And last but not least we have our own "Famous in a Small Town" Jackie Clemmons! Everyone knows Jackie and she might be running for Mayor of DeFuniak Springs one day, so everyone make sure you vote for her!
I hope you enjoyed my blog today. Come back and visit again.
Until next time, GOD BLESS,
