Beautiful Autumn Days

This year autumn has been one beautiful day after the next. I really like springtime but there is something about autumn that makes it my favorite season.

This afternoon after school Sailor was wanting to practise batting. I joined them outside and we had a great time. Rosebud and Sailor took turns batting while Sunbeam decided her role in the game will be catcher for both of them.
 Rosebud ready to swing and Sunbeam cracking me up with her catchers pose.
A wild swing which actually connected with the ball. But notice Sunbeam.... eyes squeezed shut but her hands closer together in hopes the ball lands gently in her hands.

 Sailor up to bat with Sunbeam looking on quite unconcerned. He almost never misses the ball.

 Sailor swings and Sunbeam folds her arms knowing the ball will land somewhere far away from her.

    What a great day for playing ball! This weather's been just perfect. All of their expressions are priceless. I think she's brave playing catcher - I was always afraid somebody would get me with a bat. GREAT pics ~ ♥

    I love how she has her eyes closed waiting for the ball! :) They look like they are having a ton of fun!

    Looks like lots of fun for the kids. Funny to see the girls in their pretty dresses, and Sailor in jeans with the knees out! So typical of girl-boy fashion sense.
