Humpday?

I've been making to-do lists every day and staying busy with random household chores that I've been putting off forever. 

At the end of the day its nice to see the check marks for DONE on my list. 

The weather has been pretty nice here. No extreme heat or storms, although we did have some rain come through yesterday evening that gave my gardens a nice drink so I wont have to water them today. 

Caden had his first game with the next town overs legion team on Monday.

The coaches are happy to have him, but made it clear that their local kids would play before him.

There are two teams - the juniors with 9th and 10th graders on it, which has 16 players and another team the seniors with 11th and 12th graders and they just barely have enough kids for a team.

First game on Monday for the juniors Caden didn't play till the 4th inning and when he did he made some good plays. They lost that game, but asked him to play up on the seniors team for tomorrows game.

With our town not having a legion team of their own its tough to find somewhere for him to play for summer ball. The main thing now is to continue getting reps in and staying healthy.

Thankfully he will be able to play with the Eau Claire Babe Ruth program for fall league and fall travel. 

School is out for Caden now and he is officially a JUNIOR. 

Hard to believe isn't it?

He is even getting a job, which starts tomorrow at 7am at a tree farm not far from here. 

I'm going to be a bundle of nerves with him working, but I'm glad he wants to work and make a little money of his own. 

My rhubarb is growing like crazy with the cooler spring. 

I've been making pies, jams and cobblers.

Saturday we met up with friends at a local winery and really had fun visiting and catching up. 

Looking forward to going again.

cheers :)
