First T-Ball Game!

Isaac had his first t-ball game today. It was so fun to watch him. He didn't really do much, the first inning he did get to play 1st base so he got to catch the ball and throw it home after each at-bat. He did a pretty good job on his hits and got to run around all the bases since he was last in the line up. His attention span was as good as can be expected. Hopefully it just gets better from here. I think he had an awesome time. He enjoyed his family there cheering for him and getting a treat at the end. He said his favorite part was hitting the ball hard.  Gooo  Cubbies!
The game is a very relaxed version.  Each kid gets a turn at bat and gets to keep trying until they get a "good" hit.  Then they run to first.  Only one kid on the field retrieves the ball, since is usually makes it a little ways down the pitchers line, and he throws it to first.  The first baseman throws it to the coach at home plate.  They had three innings and that was long enough for Isaac.
Isaac ran from 2nd to home so they told him to run back to 3rd, then go home.  He'll get the hang of the whole bases thing. :)
The dirt is just soo fun to play in.
