Another completed puzzle (thanks to Jamie who found the last piece in the box). Matt and AJ brought home Taco Bell from AJ's baseball practice - always a family hit. The baby has not yet tired of his new contraption (interesting there's t-r-a-p in that word). The pond at Flying Horse Foundation Equine Program is loaded with frogs. It was loaded with tadpoles when last we were down there.
Guess who got to go in the pool today! Quilting continues - something about flying geese. Lynn and Jamie enjoyed a little evening bubbly after the online class session. Fina works on her Fall ballet schedule. The boys got to do some online gaming with their California friends. And that same little guy who got to go swimming today also got a new "activity center" which Lexi enjoys as well. Jamie helped run a Zoom meeting for the California Short Line Railroad Association this afternoon.

Big day for Matteo... He and a small family contingent visited the Evangelical Christian Academy for a tour, looking at school options for the Fall. Turns out it's much like SLOCA where he and some siblings attended a couple years back in California. Jamie taught there a couple years, too. Matteo was excited enough about going here to put up with a more stringent dress code. Lexi makes her own party when there isn't one otherwise. One quilt is done! Jamie, Lynn, and Fina went up to Wheat Ridge (near Golden) to have dinner with Rachel in the aftermath of Danya's passing. The Rambling Rose turned out to be AOK! Was pretty fun catching up a little. Fina had us stop at a Fat Shack on the way out of Wheat Ridge. OMG. We all agreed the deep fried Oreo one was the best (of the three we tried).
Kinda like a sesquicentennial. Wow. Off to TimberCreek Church for the morning. Good thing we got a picture of the puzzle early today. Next time I saw it, it was being torn apart and put back in the box. That was a quickie! Jamie spent most of the afternoon working on his God is Good class.
About mid-morning the action began. First, off to Lewis Palmer Middle School for an AJ baseball game. Then to Rosie's Diner for a man's meal, a Handyman that is. The boys were beside themselves. Next, fishing at Monument Lake. AJ and Papa scooted home a little early, but Matteo and Matt stuck it out and it paid off. Fina went to a new babysitting client tonight. She's developing quite a reputation for sitting special-needs kids. More of The 4400 for Lynn and Jamie tonight. What if promycin (sp?) is spelled ProMySin? Ooooooo.

I should have been counting puzzles as well as days... Lexi has been bit by the playing cards bug. Today's card game was a matching game. At the pool 5-8pm. The new thing today was "swimmers' whack-a-mole." There was also some dog whack-a-mole earlier.
Waffles for breakfast! Miniature golf for fun! A card matching game for more fun! A new cookie source for even more fun. And baseball. AJ walked, scored, and got 2 RBIs with a solid hit to the outfield; very exciting. He got to play 3rd base for the first time, too.
