Fall Weekend

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Yesterday, Evan played two baseball games in Liberty Hill.  That is about 45 minutes, or so, northwest of the city. Rachel's cousin, Lauren, and her family live there.  Rachel's Aunt, who is going through chemo, has been staying with them.  Rachel decided to join us to watch Evan play and also visit with Aunt Susan.

Rachel dropped Evan and I off at the field for warmups while she went to Lauren's.  She sat in the backyard with Aunt Susan.  She said Aunt Susan looked good.  Her coloring was good and she seemed in a good mood.  She had shaved her head as her hair has begun to fall out.  Rachel said it was a nice visit.

In the two games, Evan was 4-6 with several RBIs.  He played third base the entire first game and catcher the entire second game.  In the first game, he had one play at third base.  On a steal the catcher threw a little wide of third base.  Evan caught it and made a nice dive to tag the runner out.  The coach was very pleased with Evan's athletic tag.  At catcher, only one runner tried to steal on Evan.  Unfortunately, the shortstop dropped the ball or Evan would have thrown him out. 

We come home for a bit, then went out and picked up dinner.  We got dinner from Cypress Grill.

We didn't have anything that we needed to do today.  So Rachel and I decided to go the Hamilton Greenbelt and take Chewie for a while.  Chewie was able to splash around in the creek there.  He was quite happy.

On the way home, we stopped at Black Rock Coffee.

Evan and I watched the Steelers game.  It was a tense game.  Noah didn't want to watch because every time he watched last week, the Steelers played poorly. He'd come downstairs to check on the game and see how things were going.

We got pizza from Domino's.  Then we went to HEB to do our weekly shopping.

The boys are playing on the Playstation now.

Beautiful Weekend

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

It was a beautiful weekend here Austin. Both Saturday and Sunday were in the low 80s and sunny with a nice breeze.

Yesterday, Evan and I enjoyed the outside in Liberty Hill, TX where he played two baseball games.  It was actually on the "cool" side when we got there.  It was around 71 degrees.  The sun came out and made it a perfect day for baseball.  Evan caught all of Game 1.  He also batted second in the lineup and knocked in the first and third runs of the game.  The coach was really pleased with Evan's approach at the plate and I thought Evan did a great job calling the pitches for the pitcher.  In game 2, Evan played third base and didn't get a whole lot of action there.  All-in-all, Evan was 1-3 with a walk, two RBIs, and two runs scored on the day.

We came home and Rachel, Evan and I went out to a restaurant for the first time since June.  We went to a restaurant called Abuelo's.  We sat on their patio.  It was really nice.  Again the temperature was great.  We felt very safe as we were not close to other people and the server was really good.  It was a good time eating out.

Today, Rachel and I went for a walk on a trail that is only a 5 minute drive from our house.  We didn't know it existed.  On the hike is a really big pond.  We brought Chewie and he loved it. I think we'll go there quite a bit more since it's so close.

For dinner, we picked up Hunan Lion today and ate out on our back patio.

Everyone is about to get ready for bed.

Until next time...
