A Stanford Tradition Continues-Carter's 1st T-Ball Game

Saturday, March 14 may go down in history! That was the day that Carter Stanford began playing baseball (T-ball). Little did we know that we would be the starting pitcher (the position his daddy played throughout his baseball years) and he was also the lead off batter. We were so proud of the way he played. He hustled and gave it his all and the best part of all is that he had a GREAT time. He was so cute playing. The cutest thing he did was while he was playing pitcher, a ball was hit that went all the way into left field. Carter took off from pitcher's mound and ran all the way out to left field to get the ball. Believe it or not, he was the first one to get to the ball even though there were a lot of kids out that direction. He just gave it all he had.

Carter had a huge fan base to cheer him on. MeeMee, Paw Paw, Uncle B, Aunt B, Ryleigh, Elizabeth, Randall and me were all there to watch a new era begin. Ryan had scheduled a bass tournament in advance of the baseball schedule of which he had paid a lot of money to enter. So much to Ryan's disappointment, he was not there.

I wish I had a dollar for all the days that Randall and I have spent at the ballpark with our boys throughout their baseball careers. Now we begin again. How fun!!!!
