James Baseball Starts

Thursday

I started my Thursday by going to see the twins and taking them a bag of Peanut Butter Malted Milk Balls.  Right off the bat, Harper ran off with my hat and hid it, that turned into a tickle fest.  She got it again, and took it into Dianne's bathroom and threw it in the shower, when she brought it back she said it was wet, but it wasn't!  I am probably lucky it did not end up in the toilet!  I left just before their nap and they were really wound up.  Amazingly, Dianne said they went right to sleep.  I did a bunch of work on the P-51 gear doors in the afternoon and got the inner door working really well.  I made another trip over to see the girls about 6 and got there just after David had wound them up.  Harper hid my hat again, we would not have found it if she hadn't shown that it was in the cupboard.  They were spending the night, so I planned on seeing them Friday morning.

I went over to see the girls after breakfast, Harper took off with my hat again, so I chased her and cornered her in the living room and she threw it back to me.  Then she got out her Tinker Bell book and we had a nice time looking at it.  I got the outer gear door hooked up and working today.  It took a little looking, but I finally found the sequencer for the doors and it all worked the first try.  The inner doors on a Mustang are always shut unless the gear is being cycled, the inner doors open, the gear extends and the inner doors close, the same thing happens when the gear is retracted.  Now I just have to do the other wing.  James had a baseball game today, we left a little early to pick up the mail and try Micheal's for a sheet of plastic I need.  No luck there, so we headed over to the MM field to get setup.  It was a good thing we did, because the game started 15 minutes early.  In the picture above, James is warming up before going in to pitch.

He had not pitched since last summer, it did not go all that well, so he was only in for part of the inning.  In fact it did not go well for MM the whole game and they lost by 10 or 11 to 2.  It doesn't help that they are playing the practice games against 4A schools.  After the game, we went to the Sizzler with Mik, Michelle and James, Debbie was working, so she got to wait on us.  We had a nice time and James was in a pretty good humor by the time we left.  On the way home, we stopped at Papa Murphy's and picked up three family sized stuffed pizzas with a coupon I got online.  Then it was off to home, put the pizza's in the freezer, come in here to edit the pictures and then do my blog.  Now I am off to watch a little TV.
