The End Of An Inning

Today was Catherine’s last regular season softball game. They were playing the Red Sox, who didn’t have enough girls (again) and they forfeited. We offered to play them anyway, but they didn’t want to. I guess they forfeited 8 games this season because they didn’t have enough girls. That really sucks for the girls who do show up. After the Red Sox left, our girls took the field anyway. They grabbed some parents and some friends and played a funny little game. A couple of the Red Sox players stuck around and joined us. Carolynn’s friend, who plays in the bigger girl’s league, was playing in the game right before Catherine and she joined the game. It was the only place you would see an Astro pitching to a Red Sox with both Red Sox and Dodgers in the outfield, as well as a few parents. They played for about an hour and a half. They had a blast. Anyway, here are a few pictures.

Carly on base and Priscilla in the infield with a parent out there in the outfield.

Carolynn waiting her turn to bat while her friend Shayla from the bigger girl's Astros gets a hit and runs to first. Coach Art was catching.

Catherine playing second and Shayla at shortstop.At least I think that is what they were trying to do.

Catherine at bat. She actually got a hit. Finally, a hit! (in a fake game, but still..)

The Dodgers
Back row-Coach Jorge, Katlyn, Erin, Priscilla, Morgan, Carly, and Coach Art
Front Row-Jasmine and Jaime (I can't tell which is which. Twins are too hard.), Diana, Catherine, and McKenna.

After that, Carolynn went to a friend’s house for a birthday. They went to Scandia and they had a blast. Her friend was turning 14. She is in the 8th grade. They met on the bus. They live just down the street. I am so glad Carolynn is making better friend choices.

This morning I went to the tire store. Luckily, there was a three year warranty n my tires and it had only been two. So they replaced my tire for free. It made me very happy. Tires for my car run about $200 each. Stupid fancy rims. They had it fixed in no time too. I was in and out in just about 30 minutes.

Well, I have to go to work soon. Until tomorrow or something…
