More Vacation

The Hillbilly Minivan wasnt even home for a couple of hours on Monday before we had to run out to the baseball game at Spins park. Jack stayed with Nana and we took the other three. Before the first inning was over that ole familiar rain came crashing down on us. After being totally soaked Jimmy and Laura wanted to stay so Lyn took Catherine out a little early and came back and picked us up in the sixth inning. Aunt Estelle organizes a fmily baseball party every year and it was pretty well attended considering the weather. When Lyn was leaving the cop outside gave Catherine a baseball and Jimmy and Laura both got some autographs from the canaligator creature.
I dont know what it is but we really cant sit around too long, so this morning we all went to the coffee shop. After that we went to see Black Gordon the train, rode on the trolley. After that we were headed onto the train and before we got inside we decided to go to the Revolving museum and then to the museum across the street. At the Revoling museum they had alot of exhibits for the kids. At one of them, they had this artistic car type vehicle with all types of musical instruments on it such as drums and such. It is not the type of thing that you are supposed to climb inside of, but...........of course. thankfully there wasnt any damage. It was Jack.
Once we got out of there Catherine and Laura and Jack stayed home with mommy and Jimmy and I went to play tennis at the courts. There were six courts and we were the only ones there so every time a ball went east or west it was quite a run for us to grab the little yellow ball. Jimmy wasnt the only one that wasnt exactly hitting the ball straight. This game also ended with buckets of rain. Jimmy told me what a good time he was having. He has been very good the last two days because he has been thanking me for everything.
The wonderful day continued when the three oldest accompanied me to the movies at 3pm to see Wall E. Catherine passed out and JImmy fell asleep for a little while too. I told Laura that the snacks are going to be cut down on. Especially by me..
