Kickball with the Cousins

Archer has claimed that he doesn't know how to play kickball, even though they've played it in gym class. I guess they only played it once or something, so he doesn't remember. So I told him I'd teach him. Well, that's just two people, its tough to play with only two. Plus Shelly, but I was pretty sure she wouldn't be interested. Plus the baby. So we waited until the weekend, when we'd have Dad, one more. That brings us up to, um... Five? But only three who would play. Good news!! Cousins got wind of our plan and came to join us! That's Austin, Alex, plus their mom, so now we're up to six players. We invited more. Brock, Annika, and their mom. Two more players. Following all the math? Three moms, one dad, one baby, two kids who didn't play and four kids who played. We found a ball diamond with a playground nearby and... wait. There's goose poo all over the diamond. Play in the grass instead? No, that's worse than the diamond. So we put cones out on the cleanest part of the diamond, tried to run around the poo, and pretended that the ball wasn't covered in the stuff as we played. What fun! Whew it was a lot of running, shouting, cheering and F.U.N.! Archer's goal of playing every position was achieved, there were lots of home runs, lots of outs, and when we were all done, ice cream.
