A few Saturdays ago, Eric and I took the girls to the park and to hit baseballs on a baseball field. I tried to get some pictures at the playground. Lyla didn't want to stop for me to take her picture. Grace, of course, was very accommodating and stopped to smile every time I came near. I didn't take very many because I couldn't figure out how to take a picture without their faces being dark and the sky being too bright. I know this is basic photography stuff but I can't figure it out. I need to do some research and learn more. Anyway, after the playground we went to the field.
Lyla got a real baseball bat and balls and glove for her birthday. We quickly figured out that we can't pitch to this girl in the backyard with a real bat and ball. She's too good (sorry to brag a little). She can hit it out of the backyard too easily. I'm also afraid she might break a window. Grace is good too. The funny thing is, Grace bats left handed (she right handed) and Lyla bats right handed (she's left handed).
So, Eric wanted to take them to a field to see how far they could really hit it. They did great. I'm not joking when I say Lyla (when shes trying) can hit 1 out of every 2 or 3 pitches. Grace can hit too. Then Eric made them take fielding practice. We played until there was a meltdown, which is out cue to leave. They did great and I can't wait to see them playing on a team someday!
