This spring, my niece started playing softball for the first time. Although she danced when she was younger, she was a little apprehensive yet excited about actually playing organized sports for the first time. Now, just a month after her initial game, she warmed up to being the team's catcher. She also has a pretty great swing, although I haven't captured that on film yet.
Here she is at third base following her first hit. And, then we just had to capture a quick shot of the siblings after the game.

Joseph, who has played t-ball and now enjoys both basesball and basketball is an old pro on the field. As a little boy, he also loves anything that moves! Recently, my brother promised him he would be able to ride an ATV, which he absolutely loved (even if he stopped too quickly at times!) and couldn't wait to ride again.
Making a sharp turn and stopping for a picture.
