Morgan's Tball Career Comes to An End

T-ball is the first summer activity to finish up.  Morgan approached her experience like most other things - with as little effort as necessary.  She wasn't interested in practicing at home.  She'd rather ride her bike or scooter.  Or really do just about anything outside but that.  Last night was the final game.  She was walking between bases and she had her hat pulled down so low I don't know how she could see.

I don't think she paid any attention to any ball  hit while she was playing the field.  She didn't even stop to look at the airplane going by like every other kid.  She was too busy talking to one of the coaches to notice airplanes or the fact that a game was going on.

She spent more time making patterns in the dirt with her shoes.  Yesterday she said she wasn't playing ball next summer.  I asked her what she was going to do.  She said, "theater".  That got a good squawk out of her sister!  Shelby yells, "That's my thing.  You can't do it".  Time will tell.  The one thing she could turn out to be good at is running.  After they stretched at the beginning of practice they would run to a group of trees in the park and back.  If Tyronne was there, she usually came in 2nd.  If he wasn't, she would be 1st.  I think she had fun this summer, but once she decided she was done with it, she was done.  Here are a few more pictures of the game.

At the top of this picture you can see one of the pavilions in the park.  Someone decided to get married in the park during the 6:00 game.  The reception was happening during our 7:00 game.  I tried to get a pic of the 2 of them facing the recep4ion watching people dance while they discussed the right way to slow dance.  Unfortunately they turned around before I could get one.  So long days of T-ball.  You haven't changed much since Shelby played!
