Swimming

I had to backwash about 1,000 gallons of water from the pool today as a result of the 10 inches of rain we received here yesterday. Lots of people came to swim this afternoon and seemed to enjoy themselves even though the water was a bit too chilly for me. Jared had a t-ball game this evening and wasn't allowed to swim. I tried to talk Eric into just this once telling him Jared wasn't going to be in the World Series but he still said no. Jared was so upset it was hard for me to watch but he got over it by playing Wii with Ryan Ellis, a Master's Commission student who is staying with us. The boys really enjoy Ryan and Levi Lamy another MC.

This evening Jared and Jordyn came over for dinner. I hadn't seen them in a week and was going through withdrawal ;). They're always so full of energy and both had to go play with Molly and Chloe. Then Jared and I played a little Wii gokart and beach volleyball. He can't handle losing and so every time I would get ahead, he would stop the game. He's getting ready to play t-ball this spring. It'll be interesting to see how he handles playing with people his own age and size. I'm looking forward to going to his games and seeing him in that cute baseball uniform, hitting the ball and running the bases. To round out the evening, I fixed spaghetti with meat sauce for dinner and watched Planet of the Apes with Mark Wahlberg. The boys liked the movie because of the monkeys and fighting. A great time was had by all.
