Double Trouble

Yesterday I had a softball tournament up at South Gate Park in LA. We played very well the first game. The second game we played well too, but we lost though, so we got to the silver medal. I also saw A.J. yesterday the one who is going to China with me for track and field. He was playing softball while not really playing he was sitting on the bench his first game because he didn't feel very well and he didn't feel very well the night before either. Last night I went to the Mission for Music Under the Stars. The band was called Jumping Jack Flash. They had some really good songs

Twins Game.

This entry is unrelated to China, but it contains pictures. And everyone loves pictures.

Yesterday, in celebration of my upcoming birthday, we went with the Fords to see a Twins/Angels game. The restaurant we went to before the game is actually where the Twins go to eat when they're in town. The chef is a Minnesota boy and he came by our table and said hello and let us check out the signatures he's got on his jersey. Tim and Jake arrived late, as Jake was moving his stuff out of his condo, but we had a nice dinner, and they still got to eat plenty of hot dogs at the park.

I made a circle me Bert sign, and talked to the camera man who was a few rows behind us. Late in the game when I was standing up to try to get spotted, the cameraman had me turn around and filmed me and my sign. We were hoping Renee and Juan would tivo the game for us, but their power was out due to a storm, so we may never know whether or not I was actually circled.

It was a good game until the end of the 8th inning. At least it wasn't a slaughter like Friday night, which made it a little easier to handle. Sara has softball practice today, so Coach Jeff is busy making all of the kids cry. We're having swordfish and party potatoes for dinner, and then after cake Tim and I will have to head back up to LA, where our cats will probably be furious at having been left alone all weekend.

Dad's new camera does some great close up work. Joe Mauer is my boyfriend. I love guys with sideburns.



Even though he was born in Anaheim, Tim decides to root for the better team. His mom almost cried when she saw him.



My sign! If anyone in the Minnesota area saw me holding this sign on TV, please let me know!
