Memorial Day

Back on Memorial Day, Todd was asked to throw out the first pitch for a college baseball game. They were having a tournament and it was military appreciation weekend.

Here he is getting his instructions and waiting for them to announce his name. It was neat hearing them announce Staff Sargent Jason Soyars. The kids were pretty excited too!! I think he was a little nervous! He has never been one to play baseball. I told him all he needed to do was get it down there. Just don't let it bounce. You won't look good if you let it bounce before it gets to the catcher!! It didn't bounce. The catcher did have to stand up to catch the ball, but he did a great job. We were all very proud!!

Then he stayed with all the umpires while they played the National Anthem. Man he looks good down there!! I was very proud that he was coming back up to the stands to our family!!!
