Batting Cage

While I was gone to Idaho, Mike finished putting the batting cage up. Saturday he dug six holes and filled them with concrete.  He has been sore for a couple days now.  Steve came over yesterday and helped him with the net.  The kids love it!  (Maysen and I drove home from Idaho this morning.  We were able to wave goodbye to Grandpa before we left.  Nice to see him on Memorial Day, no matter how short.)

 Jorja also loves catching with the machine
We had my family over today.  We were going to swim, play with the batting cage and have hamburgers and cake.  Too bad our pool didn't want to cooperate.  Our pool pump broke this morning.  It is probably one of the last things that we haven't replaced.  We knew it was on its last leg, just bad timing.  Mike ordered a new one, so it should be up and running soon...just not today.

Abby's birthday is on Friday and Ella's is in a few weeks.  Ange brought over a cake.  How fun!
I was watching Bubs and Ange's kids for a few hours before the rest of the family came over.  I decided to take Abby to the book store to pick out her book.  We rode in the jeep.  She had fun with that.

We played a few games of Dominion before Matt left.  Maysen won the first game.  Matt, Sam and I played one more.  Matt dominated that one.  It wasn't even close.  Still fun though.  I told Maysen she could still be on the trophy because I wouldn't let her play the last game.  She needed to finish her essay.
