Kieran's Baseball

Kieran's been practicing for over a month now - it's about two practices a week, two hours at a time.  He's had 2-3 games postponed because of rain and multiple practices also rained out.  Tonight was the first night that the game was postponed before we had to leave...

He's excited, it's the first season of 'kid pitch' and he has a whole uniform.  With the weather tonight, it looked like it would be close whether we would get the game in or not...

 While the kids were warming up, 10 minutes before the game, the first lightning bolt struck.  All the kids were removed from the field for a time to wait things out....eventually they started the game though.  They made it through 1 1/2 innings before the next bolts of lightning, though they finished the next 1/2 inning before this happened...

Maybe it's hard to see...but that's a deluge all over the field.  Ponding water everywhere...eventually the postponed the game until June 28th.  We'll see what the weather will be like then...

Best part --- Kieran didn't start the game and wasn't going to enter the game until the 3rd inning...we drove to Winsted just to watch some weather....Lexy was able to make her entire practice though back in Cologne (not of drop of rain)....
