what's on tap

Doug headed to Chicago tomorrow to see old college friends on the 20th anniversary of their graduation. We were all hoping to go, but turns out Emma's softball team has league tournament this weekend. 

The North Area girls ended their regular season with a big, come-from-behind win on Weds night. Emma had a big drive up the middle in one of the rally innings, and did her usual solid role as catcher. Their first round game is tomorrow night in North St. Paul and games all weekend as long as they keep winning. 

Ben's team has won 4 or 5 in a row now, and he's been hitting lights out, with a double and a single in each of the last two games from the cleanup slot. (He's also drawn a lot of walks, and hasn't made an out in over 3 games.) He's been busy with tennis and weight lifting, and he and his boys are working on an 8 song "concept" album every afternoon in the basement.

Terri sent out her tenure file this week, so now its just sit back and wait for the reviews. In the meantime, she is starting to do a bit of blogging for this "care work" group of scholars she is affiliated with. Her first post is on parents watching kids sports. It is called "Support from the Sidelines and you can find it at: http://careworklive.wordpress.com.
