Our Weekend

Nick's brother Alex got married this weekend.  Although weddings aren't my first choice of weekend activities, it was a good time.  I think we all had a lot of fun even though Bailey had to wear a dress and earrings.  She gets equally bent out of shape when we ask her to shower and brush her teeth daily, so I think it was a success.

Avery was a doll as usual.  She danced and danced and danced.  And rested.  And danced.  She didn't just run around the dance floor like the usual 1.5 year-old, she danced.  She impressed all of us with her grasp of the Cha Cha Slide.  

I have included some Avery videos of dancing and resting and dancing.  









Saturday was Bailey's first softball game.  Her team is mostly comprised of beginners, but they have potential.  Bailey had an impressive play at 2nd base and also stole a ton of bases.  She either got on base or was walked all 3 times at bat.  She will pitch in the next game.  Here is a Bailey-authorized picture of her jersey.  She picked number 42 in honor of Jackie Robinson.  I think Bailey is pretty cool to give a shout-out to civil rights through her jersey number.

Kids are the best to have at weddings. They fill in the spaces on the dance floor. Glad to hear the kids were good. Everything is always more fun then.

Actually, both my granddaughters are awesome! I am impressed with Avery's grasp of dance . . . and her stamina. Bailey has chosen her softball identity wisely.
