I was watching the Emmy awards tonight and thinking about trophies. I believe I have one somewhere, for nothing special. But I guess because trophies were on my mind, these photos caught my eye as I was looking through one of my mother’s photo albums.
Gina and Sarah with trophies they got for playing T-Ball. I never got to see them play, but my parents did, and they loved it! I think they saw Daniel, Josh, and the twins play one sport or another as kids. I’m sure I have photos of all of them, including Aaron, in their uniforms.
I think my nieces look utterly adorable here as Cubs. I’m including a second photo for their Aunt Terri to see, because if I’m not mistaken, this could be a Fido sighting. If that really is Daniel’s old horse Fido, we have now traced him as far as Kentucky. Maybe he ended up on one of the beautiful horse farms outside Lexington and enjoyed a long and happy retirement.
Oh my gosh, looking closely at their uniforms I noticed they were the Dixie Cubs. Unfortunately, I was so sports inept I never got a trophy for anything.
I certainly never got a trophy for anything sports-related. All my own sports stories are tragic and fraught with drama and angst!
Those hats are way too big for them, so cute.
Big hats, big smiles!
I have the newspaper photo of the whole team with index fingers raised yelling we’re number one. It is priceless.
SO CUTE! Even Gina admitted (on FB) that they are cute.
