Lukey's First Tee Ball Game

Although Whitney was finally able to actually hold Ellie in her arms in the PICU this morning and that is great news, today was actually a "Lukey day" for the family. Lukey's first Tee Ball game was this morning and the weather was perfect!

Lukey did very well, of course... of course, what else would Papa say on his blog? 





Pop, shooting some photos from the third base line...



Lukey and his dad, Charlie, getting ready to lead-off the bottom of the first inning...




Lukey was congratulated by the opposing coach for a powerful hit...


...and, as Lukey then stands on first base, he seems pretty proud of himself...


...running to second base...


...and running toward third base...


...then running for home plate... 


...and still running toward home plate while keeping an eye on the action in the infield...




Lukey, making a catch at first base... the throw was a little late for an out but Lukey had a nice catch at first base...




Another base hit while Lukey was playing first base...



After a late throw to first base, Lukey throws the ball toward home plate...





Another solid base hit by Lukey...







...at second base now...


...running to third base...


Now spending a little time at the pitcher's position...


...making the play to first base...



...another throw to first base...


Nan and Pop, watching the game from the third base line...  I chose the first base line for shooting photos since Lukey would then be facing me while batting...


Miss MacKenzie and Gee, watching the game from just beyond first base...


Another solid hit...


...and, at first base again...


Both teams lining up for the "good game handshake" at the end of the game...


Papa invited the family out for lunch after the game... 









...I just realized that I'm in this last photo too!


It was a really nice day today! And, Lukey did very well in his first Tee Ball game. The weather should be this nice for all his games!
