Three for Four


The weekend brought us guests.  Bob and Nancy came to watch Grace's lacrosse tournament and brought Ella back for a surprise as well.  With her birthday upon us we worked in a meal at 1919 as we have done for the past several years.  Admittedly she picks that place because she can't think of another place to go. Either way it was perfect and we scored some ice cream cake on the way home.  Merrick had a golf tournament earlier in the week and found time to veg and warm up after our unseasonably cool temps that included rain and snow.  He was second on his team and happy with those results.  He passed on a few other tournaments this upcoming week due to tests and also that he wasn't that interested in playing in tournaments.   Grace has kept us running between lacrosse and basketball.  She often has overlapping practices and is finding ways to split time between them.  She is force to be reckoned with on the LaCrosse pitch and picked up several goals during the four games on Saturday.  Sunday we headed down to Appleton for three basketball games and she added several points to the board as well.  The last game came down to a double overtime and hers was the only game left playing in an empty gymnasium of 7 other courts.  The extra time was only required because the refs wanted to play too....leaving confusion and sourness in everyone's mouths.  This week will be more of the same, although less Ella and more band as Grace puts on the spring concert on Thursday.  Merrick past on to his next karate level. Driving himself over to test out....as I wasn't yet prepared.
