Day 100/365 - April 10

After a late night at the ball field, we had team pictures this morning at 8:50. Of course, that meant we had to be there (according to Wes) no later than 8:30. Thankfully Wes took the time to iron up both of their uniforms Friday evening - he's pretty sweet like that.

The photographer started off with individual photos of anyone that wanted to order.
They finished up with our team picture. I'm hoping the actual photo they took turns out a little better. I was using my point and shoot (since my baby is still being repaired) and the sun was directly behind them glaring into the camera.
After pictures, Wes took the team down to the batting cages to warm up before our 10:30 game. We played an AUM team, the Cobras, and it was a really good game although the final score didn't reflect how tough they played us. We won 14-0! They should have easily had 3 runs in the first inning, but a girl slung her bat. She was called out and the two girls on base that she batted in - their runs didn't count. They seemed to just fall apart after that. Like I said, they still played us really strong and our girls did a great job holding them off!

Once we got home, I took Avery swimming at the indoor pool at the Y and Wes got to work on Avery's swingset. Nope, this isn't a new swingset. This would be the swingset she got for her 8th birthday LAST year that hadn't been finished yet. There wasn't alot left to do, but Wes got started on it today. His goal is to have it completed before her 9th birthday!!

As soon as we got home from the Y, my mom brought Paige and Caitlin (Avery's cousins) over to play and spend the night. They live an hour and a half south of us and don't get to see each other that often, so they had a great time together. 

For as long as the girls have been staying with us, they always want to all sleep together on the futon in the orange room. We pull it out into a bed and they sleep sideways on it. As they've gotten older, it's obvious that Paige and Caitlin (who are pretty tall) are much too long and hang off, but they won't even consider sleeping anywhere else.
Don't they look like little angels asleep there?
