Baseball, Snowcones and a Saxophone

Yesterday was such a fun day. After putting heat on my feet and ice on my head, taking two Excedrin Migraine and getting back in bed, I woke up again mostly migraine free. Reid had a tournament game, so I got to see him play. Eli had a makeup game from last week's winter blast, so he was dressed in his Cub uniform when he got there. Have you ever seen a cuter cub in your life? He wanted one of those ice "fangs" like Nayna (that's what he calls Alayna) had. Assuming he meant snowcone, I took him to get one. He knew the color he wanted right away. He's a very decisive four-year-old.


Reid's team lost the game and it was a single-elimination tournament. I didn't get a single good picture of Reid playing because I was stuck behind the chain link fence and I didn't have my big camera to get a good zoom. I forget how much fun it is to hang out at the ballpark until I go to a game and I really do miss it. Sometimes I miss having little ones so bad it makes my heart hurt. And then other times I'm so glad I don't have little ones I could shout from the rooftops. It's a funny in-between position.
AlaynaWe all went to my mom and dad's for supper last night. We had the best time. My dad is a bit of a -- well, he's a junk collector. He buys things and oftentimes will resell them. Sometimes he buys things just because it's something he's never owned before. Such as a. . . saxophone. He bought one Saturday and brought it out last night. Man, you have to have a lot of hot air to make a sound come out of one of those things! Kenny G makes it look so easy. If you were able to make it work, then we had you march like you were in a band. Blowing a horn and marching at the same time would really take a lot of practice. It's even harder than patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time. We all have a newfound respect for marching bands that's for sure. They're very talented, coordinated people.

Ross has jury duty this week. He hopes he doesn't get picked. I love it when I get picked, although I haven't been called in years and I hear a lot of that stuff in my depos.

Guess that's it for Monday. Y'all know I'm not a Monday kinda gal, so sorry I'm not more interesting today. Oh, yeah, how long does it take y'all to get used to the Daylight Savings Time? I love it once I adjust, but oh, my goodness till then. . .
