Jaycee Park

  

Jaycee park is in essence, a baseball field. That's really all there is to it, so we came to play a quick game of baseball... tee-ball... whatever. 

First, it's Deano up to bat

He hits a grounder straight down the third baseline, waits patiently for Andrew to retrieve the ball, then takes off towards first base. Andrew quickly goes in pursuit.

Deano rounds first and continues on. Andrew stops to ask if it's his turn up to bat yet.

 

Deano continues on toward second base, and Andrew continues the chase.

Deano rounds second and keeps going, Andrew is closing the gap.

(Both boys start laughing hysterically at this point for some reason)

Deano rounds third base, and Andrew cuts a corner trying to keep him from scoring a run.

 

Almost to home base now...

 

...but in a surprise turn of events Deano starts back towards first base again.

 

After a quick reminder and a change of course, Deano scores a run with Andrew hot on his heels.

After a quick "good job!" from Andrew, Deano helps Andrew replace the ball on the tee, and then it is Andrew's turn up to bat.

Andrew holds his bat like the left hander he is, but then came at the ball like a right hander. He hit the ball high and hard straight into the left fence

then took off still carrying the bat straight towards the pitcher's mound

He made it to the pitcher's mound as Deano recovered the ball

then after a quick reminder, finally headed off towards first base,

where he sat down to wait for Deano

As Deano approaches first base, Andrew uses his bat to whack Deano to avoid getting tagged.

Deano manages to tag Andrew anyways, and now both boys are crying,

 

but nothing cheers these boys up more than their baby brother. So it was decided that it was Isaac's turn to bat...  or at least sit there long enough for me to take a picture amidst peals of laughter from Deano and Andrew.

Like any good baseball field, there are a couple of dugouts, and some bleachers. I imagine this is where little league games or something are held. There is also a port-a-potty. On a side note, there is an entrance to the green belt right behind the park. That's really all I've got. 

I love these boys!
