Let the Games Begin!

Jeremiah's first baseball game of the year was Thursday.  His team lost by one run.  He got thrown out at first base twice, walked once, and got a blooper single.  He played shortstop:

third base (no photo at this position) and catcher:

The weather was spectacular.  After the game we made chocolate chip cookies, the pre-mixed and cut kind, just put 'em on the cookie sheet and bake.  Sierra declared I was an excellent baker when she ate one!  It's gonna be a good summer.
