It started raining after we put the boys to bed last night and it poured all night long. There was a lot of thunder and lightning. Every time I woke up I could hear it raining as if it was one of the short downpours but it kept going. Evan said he woke up at 4am because of thunder. He got up and looked out the window on the stairs for awhile before going back to bed. One person on Facebook said their rain gauge measured 9 inches of rain.
Needless to say, there was no baseball today. But the worst part of that is mid-afternoon we heard from the league and the fields were apparently damaged severely from flooding. The fall baseball season is suspended indefinitely until the damage can be assessed and an estimate on the work needed to fix up the fields is done. The fields are closed and locked until insurance adjusters can go out and see the damage. It is very upsetting.
Grandmom, Evan, Noah and I went to Target this morning. Noah got a big Lego set and Evan got baseball cards and some Legos. When we came home, we watched the Steelers finally win a game.
The boys played with their Legos during and after the game.
We went to Trattoria Lisina for dinner tonight. The boys ate really well. It is still raining. Below you can see pictures of Evan and Noah that we staged at the water fountain there.
When we got home, I had an email from Evan's baseball coach. He's thinking of putting together a Select Baseball Team and wants to see if Evan would be interested in playing. I could answer without asking Evan. There are several fall baseball tournaments in the region. We can enter a team.
We're about to put the boys to bed.
Until next time..
