Andrew had a great T-Ball game tonight against the Orioles. Even thought the evening games are difficult logistically, the weather is great (only 80 degrees).

The kids are starting to listen a bit more, but still very sporadic as the dirt is so inviting

Stacey was recruited to become the Noland / Team photographer since I am on the field trying to help Coach Marc. This was her first official time behind the lens, not bad for a rookie (Like I am much better) Maybe I can use this to get her to let me get the new D3 and assortment of long and fast lenses… hmmm.

This is a busy week with three games. Let’s see how the kids do on Saturday

Andrew had his first T-Ball game of the new season on September 15, 2008 after graduating from BlastBall.  The team this year is the Dodgers, so we are still holding out for getting onto the Cubs at some point in the future.

I am one of the assistant coaches this year, helping the little guys and girls learn the sport.  Yes I know this is scary, maybe I need to call one of the Kately’s to get some tips.

Andrew showed he still loves to play in the dirt and proud to be one of the loudest kids on the team.  It seems he is going to take after the Noland’s in terms of volume, now if we can get his grandfather to teach him to have the signature whistle.  This is something that I still have never mastered, maybe it skips a generation

Andrew was very proud to get one of the game balls since he had been doing so well at the games and practice by listening and his enthusiasm (I told the coach he just likes to be loud).
