Saturday was Alexandra's B-day party was Saturday. She had a garden fairy party. Jared and I didn't get home from our trip until 10:30 Friday night. I knew if I was going to decorate her cake the next day it needed to cool overnight. So, I stayed up until 12 making the cakes. Katy and Xandra both had a soccer games at 12. It is funny to see the difference in the two girls. Katy loves soccer and it shows when she plays. She is not the best player, but she tries hard and is decent. Xandra is in soccer purely for the social aspect. She trots around the field oblivious to the location of the ball and when the ball rolls ball her by chance she just looks at it and then continues on her way. After the games we came home and finished the party prep.
We took Jacob to his first Baseball game on Saturday. We forgot to take in account the fact that there was a Cavs playoff game also. We got stuck in horrible traffic and then there was no parking left. I mean absolutely no parking! We drove all the way down to CSU and still no parking. Jared ended up dropping me and all the kids off at Tower city so we could start walking and continued on to find parking. He ended up getting to the field first. Can you picture me walking through the crowded streets with FOUR kids in tow. People kept giving us the weirdest looks, but can you blame them? We were all decked out in our Indian apparel so it was obvious we were going to the game. I'm sure people were wondering why on earth that crazy mother was taking all those kids to the game herself. We missed the first hour which was also just the first inning. The Tribe scored SIX runs that inning that we missed. Fortunately the final score was 12-0 so we got to see six runs. Jacob was in awe of the whole experience. He even stayed awake for the fireworks that didn't end till 10:30. He was insulted that the guys behind us got nachos and fries and didn't give him any. But, I pulled out the cheerios and saved the day.
This is how Jacob fell asleep on Sunday. He was worn out from the trip, all of Saturday's events, and a busy Mother's day
