Take me out to the ballpark

We needed a photo for the May blog header, and a baseball park seemed like a good backdrop. We chose Southern Little League’s diamond because it is close and may be the sight of the boys’ future baseball exploits. Uncle Steve and Daddy’s cousin Marc Edds played baseball at Southern Little League and his cousin Rodney Edds was a score keeper and public address announcer. We borrowed equipment from our next door neighbor Jacob Roberts, whose Southern Little League team almost made it to the Little League World Series a few seasons ago. They looked right at home in the ballpark and mugged for the camera like big leaguers. Now all they have to do is learn how to throw, catch and hit the ball.
