Happenings

We went to a baseball game on Tuesday. The kids had a great time, despite the fact that our local team lost 7-5 in the first game (and 8-0 in second as it was a double header). We only stayed for a little bit of the first inning of the second game. It was getting late. The kids enjoyed playing on the seats and switching laps (my sister came and so did some people from Dayspring).
The favourite part for the kids was most likely the food, they ate mini donuts and popcorn provided by my sister. They also got new batting helmet's and soft toy baseballs.
Today I found them covered head to toe in mud when I went to pick them up after work. They looked cute and hilarious. Had to clean them though to get them in the van.
Have a lot of little details to work out right now.

Beauty and the Beast

On Monday I had the privilege to bring the kids to see the Rainbow Stage's performance of "Beauty and the Beast". The show was absolutely spectacular. Everybody did a really good job, although I could have done without Maurice's singing. There were a few little misses, like a ribbon or a piece of log left behind, however the show we saw was their very first dress rehearsal, so I'm sure they have all the kinks out and have the show to absolutely perfection by now.
I do encourage you if you have a chance to definitely go and check out the show for yourself! Both Emma and Xavier were enthralled!
