We all (even Piper) spent the weekend in Aberdeen at the Ripken Memorial Day Tournament. It was a fun weekend at a neat facility, with LOTS of time with the team. 11 boys can get very, very loud very, very regularly. Evelyn was a trooper and is a lot of fun to watch a game with.
After the first game, we hit 3 different drive throughs to get 3 different meals - Taco Bell, KFC, and Wendy's. What a wild way to eat! I didn't get any pics of the team trip to see Maverick (Top Gun 2). It was a fun movie and a nice break.
We also picked up a new, travel tournament-approved bat with Max's birthday money. It's a bigger barrel and much heavier than his old, but seemed to do the trick when we hit the cages on the way back to the hotel - and in the next days' games.
Dinner at a place with a golf simulator was proof that while these boys can play baseball, they have zero idea how to golf. But they had a GREAT time chopping away.
Evelyn ended up with a splinter at one point.
Piper and I circled the parking lot multiple times each day.
