Ellie learns to slide

Ellie has moved up to AAA softball this year. She is so excited to learn more of the real rules and tricks. She was ready to learn to slide and her team was waiting for a nice wet day to teach the girls. Well Monday was quite a wet day. The field was literally mud soup. My friend Crissy is coaching her team, but according to Crissy she was never very good at sliding. One of my friend's from college decided to help out and did a great job. She started by having everyone kneel and get muddy. They they learned to raise their arms, tuck their legs, and land on their backs. It was great fun to watch. By the end everyone was freezing and very muddy but they learned!

Renee had so much enthusiasm it was hard not to get excited.
Raising your arms because softball is a party!
Getting down and dirty, love that smile
There she goes!

Mission accomplished
Ellie and her good friend Antonia
Time to go home, strip down and get in the shower!
