Our house was the hub of craziness over the weekend.
The rain caused our tourney to cancel all games on Saturday.
This meant a crazy schedule for us on Sunday.
So our girls went out and did some shopping with a friend.
We finally called them to come home when the tornado watch signal came on the tv.
Of course, they had to pick up pizzas and pop before coming home so that their friends would have something to eat.
We ended up with a ton of teenagers in our basement.
After pizza I pulled out Edris' birthday cake.
This was the best time for the tornado warnings to sound.
So, we took the cake to the basement and served it down there with strict instructions to eat quickly in case the tornado headed our way. It is sinful to waste good cake you know!
Sunday we headed out early for ball games.
The afternoon brought my nieces birthday party.
Edris and I went to the party while the girls played another game.
We headed back to the tourney.
Gabby had a banquet to go to that evening for making the All Conference team.
We drug her out of the ball field as she would have rather stayed and played.
Their team was still playing and she wanted to stay.
We got updated via texting :}
They won the next game which put them as the final 2 teams in the tourney.
Unfortunately, they would have had to beat the same team twice as it was a double elimination tourney. They lost the first game and placed 2nd in the tourney.
Not bad after losing the 1st game of the day!
Edris left for home yesterday.
It seems weird to have her gone.
I am used to walking in the back door and having her sitting in the family room listening to her Ipod and watching tv. Her room is empty.
A bit of sadness hung around the house for awhile.
Like something was missing.
It will take a few days to get used to having only our girls at home again.
She called this morning to tell us that she made it home.
Poor Rosa is overwhelmed with all the clothes she had packed in those two suitcases! We both had to sit on the largest suitcase just to get it zipped.
This afternoon Abby and I got to sit and watch a movie together.
Leap Year.
It was pretty good.
Sweet!
Just about time to watch the College Softball World Series!
Hugs,
