Morgan's 1st T-ball Game

I have some blog posting catching up to do of the Hawks' fantastic end to the season, but wanted to get this particular ball game on the blog for Daddy who missed it while in Chicago recruiting those Hawks players who will get us back to the WS in 2014.
There is nothing more entertaining than 5 & 6 year olds playing any sport.  They did not disappoint.  I'm wondering if the poor girl standing in the pitcher's position that took a line drive between the eyes will have stitches from the ball imprinted on her forehead in the morning?  Can you say, THANK GOD FOR SOFT BASEBALLS!!!!  They have had a total of 4 practices.  At times it looked like they haven't had any!  Here are some pictures of our Blue Cardinal.

RUN!!!!!

it's a bird, it's a baseball, no it's an airplane!!!

delay of game as every one of them stood there staring up at an incoming airplane!

I think she had a good time.  Each time she came for a water break she'd take a drink and then run back to the field.  Even though she spent most of her time chewing on her fingers or kicking dirt, she never said she was bored.  GO BLUE CARDINALS!!!
