Opening Day

We celebrated opening day 2010 with an intense baseball game in our front yard with our teammates. Parents vs. Kids.

Final score: 6-1.

We were held to one run in the ninth inning by the defense of Matthew Guild (first unassisted double play in the history of MLB--Mwanza League Baseball) and the ace pitching of Trey Bailey.

The offense was too much for us, with Josiah's power hitting and Anna Guild's keen base running. Elijah, just called up from the rookie league to provide a left handed hitter, supplied two key singles and slid into every base at least once.

The highlight of the game may have been Rayna and Faith Bailey (unpictured) doing the wave from the grandstands.

All the parent's have subsequently been placed on the trading block.
