Small Ball

Dillon hates it when I call him "small one" or (especially) "my baby". However, it will never change. No matter how old he gets, he will always be my baby.

As exciting as GHS Football has been, Grantsville "Small Ball" (a.k.a Little League) has been just as exciting. Again, due to Stansbury getting it's own Little League program we lost WELL OVER half of the kids in our program. We have much smaller teams and in turn, new opportunities for everyone! Dillon has taken advantage of the opportunity to "Z Down".

Note that he had to be a "small one" to be able to do this. He had to weigh 10 pounds under the weight limit for the kids a year younger than him. Oh, I wish he wasn't such a picky eater! Look at the size of his legs compared to the other boys. I feel such guilt! Oh sorry... got off on a tangent. Back to the "Z Down".

He and his best friend, Dallin are playing on the A team of the kids a year younger. Dillon is playing quarterback. Therefore, he's had ample opportunity to throw a few passes to Dall. So far it's been a great season for them, with a bright future in sight!

We're proud of Dillon for choosing to do what HE wanted to do. He has such a good sense of where he wants to be in life. Have I mentioned I want to grown up to be like him someday?

Is "small ball" having a Fan Fest? Ummm yes. They'll be tailgating this Friday. Wouldn't you? Look at all the girls!

Oh, the fun never ends!
