skills

two weekends ago we were at a ball tournament that ended for us with a skills competition.  the competitors could choose to enter one skill~ hitting, pitching, running or bunting.  once we convinced AJ that bunting wasn't the best choice for him considering he'd never really officially done it, he settled on running.  it was a good choice.  the Ethiopian did not disappoint!  came through like a champ just oozing confidence...didn't matter how tall the guys were beside him, or that his leg length alone in comparison to theirs would require AJ to work that much faster. 


 he was seemingly unfazed by it all...


stepped up, ran the bases on the clock, and collected his third place ribbon.  he seemed not the least bit surprised, apparently guessed he'd get third! :)


Hudson decided on pitching.  it was a netted target that the boys had to pitch at with points awarded for hitting the four corners and the centre. 


Hudson walked off with a second place.  such a fun and unexpected ending to a great tournament of summer ball.  




AJ crashed on the way home, all the sun and fun just wore him right out.  i could just imagine, i was beat from simply spectating.  love these times and cherish these two!
nice job my three cute Wranglers!
