The finer points of the game

At the family reunion this weekend, I got a chance to meet my little 4 month old cousin, Kate.
It turns out that she likes baseball too!
So, here I am, showing her some of the finer points of the game....
Grab the ball and run like hell...
 
 OMD, this one has some attitude!
She has potential though, look at her run the bases!
C'mon Kate, get up!
There is no rolling around in the grass, in baseball!!
   
Ice cube break!
 
Wow, mentoring the young ones is hard work!

    Kate has the best athletic trainer EVER!!! :-)

    Oh, and we can't believe how big she is at 4 months old compared to you at 2 years old! I guess Airedales don't stay little puppies for too long! Or maybe it was just the picture...who knows.

    Anyway, it looks like you had a great time and you and your family are some beautiful looking dogs!

    P.S.--thanks for the info about Stanzie's family!

    It's hard work getting us young'uns in line, but it sounds like you are doing a fine job. But I must say, rolling in the grass is a pretty good thing to do.

    No there is no rolling around in baseball, Kate! You sure are a silly girl and a quick one too! Cousin Wyatt will teach you to be a pro baseball player if you only stop rolling around in the grass!
    Cute post, Wyatt!

    Oh for Pete's sake...it's so distressing when I see a girlie who is cuter than I was as a young pup....SHE IS ADORABLE!!! Her face is so sweet and she's got such a black saddle...oh Wyatt....I wish I were young again. I mean I'm four now...not ancient, but no spring chicken....I'm goin' shopping...ask Stanzie if she wants to come...that'll help....

    Kisses,

    Kate totally looks like she could take out the catcher at home plate, Wyatt! Next time you'll have to work on her slide. What a super fun event and how special that you're able to get together with your fam!
