Scoreboard

Mike loves to come up with random projects to do on his day off. He spent all morning drilling a hole in our sink. It took forever. I guess it was porcelain and iron. Something like that. Anyway, for valentines day he gave me a faucet that has instant hot water. He got the faucet part finished this morning. He still needs to tap it into the water pipe. Nothing could go wrong there.

The rest of the day he spent making a scoreboard. He hooked buttons to the bottom of his homemade ping pong table. When you score, you push your button. He has one of his signs show the score. It also has arrows pointing to whose serve it is. Game point is also announced. Stockton loves it. He told Mike how cool it was. Mike said, "But I spent way too much time on it." Stockton said, "It was totally worth it." No wonder those two get along.

Stockton also got to go out with my dad for his birthday. My dad took him to Planet Play. Stockton said that it is a mixture between Chuck-A-Rama and Chuck-E-Cheese. I guess they have a buffet, laser tag, go-karts, miniature golf and lots of arcades. It was really crowded, so they did golf and arcades. Stockton LOVED it. He was so proud of his prizes he came home with. Preston was jealous. Not of the prizes, but of going with grandpa.
