Reagan plays baseball

Reagan is so excited to play baseball. She has been wanting to play for several years now. It's hard having to sit on the sidelines watching as all your brothers get to play all the cool sports! But finally Reagan is old enough to play!

She is on the THUNDER!
Bradon played on Thunder a few years ago and so Reagan is excited to follow in her big brothers footsteps!
She's on a team of all boys! At her first practice the coach had her bat first. You should have seen the look of surprise on his face when she hit the ball. This girl's a hitter!

After practice I asked if it bothered her that she was the only girl on the team. Nope! She doesn't care. All boys is just fine with her! Within just a few days of baseball starting a little boy named J.R. from her class at school started calling her on the phone about a dozen times a day. J.R. just so happens to be on Reagan's baseball team and Reagan just so happened to give him her phone number so that he could call her. Nope, she doesn't mind being the only girl on the team!

I don't know if it's because she's the only girl or what, but the coach always put her in the prime location on the field. She had a good time fielding the balls.

Throwing it to first base....

Oops, her hat blew off!

Such a cute little girl!

In coach pitch baseball they don't keep track of outs and all the kids get to bat every inning. The last batter of the inning gets to run all the bases like a home run. Reagan got to be the home run hitter and she flew around the bases! She even caught up with all the other runners by the time she hit 3rd base!
That's our girl! Way to go Reagan!
