The Mariners begin their season with Rookie starters Gracie, Ben and Nolan!

Saturday Gracie and Ben started their T-ball season with the Mariners. They are having so much fun especially with cousin Nolan and good friend William on the team.

Bats, Balls, Gloves, Batting Gloves, Bags to put it all in...let's play ball!! Very excited for their 1st baseball game! Warm-up Ben #5, Nolan #2 and Gracie #6... Ben ready to get the "out" on first base. We can't convince her that only the catcher holds their glove like this... Nolan..sooo close Gracie..pitcher's helper (tongue out and all) Jason trying to keep Ben from playing in the dirt. Uncle Jason placing Nolan at shortstop...can't play Centerfield yet Nolan! Ben: 1st time off the tee..2nd hit off of Coach Mike. Lorinda and Lane who came to watch the cousins he hangs out with everyday!
The kids thought it was so "cool" to have so many fans at the game. Thanks for coming Uncle K, Aunt L and kids (from Ohio) Grandpa Tim, Grandma and Grandpa M., Lorinda and Lane....
