Productive Weekend

We had ourselves a semi productive, semi fun weekend.  Nana D and Mr. Walker came out for a visit so that was the fun part.  They come every May to celebrate my upcoming birthday and to watch some of my softball games.
We had a nice relaxing Friday night, starting with margaritas and chips and guacamole.  And then home-made spaghetti.  It was an international kind of night.
On Saturday, mom, Nana and I had a super lazy day.  Nana actually got to sit in the backyard and listen to the Cleveland Indians baseball game all day.  Mom just puttered around all day.  Dad and Mr. Walker however kept themselves busy most of the day.  Our pool equipment has been on its last legs since we bought the house and then the pool water turned a beautiful shade of green and wouldn't turn blue.  So dad decided since we had some free labor that this was the weekend to replace it all.  He put Mr. Walker to work cutting out old pipe and removing equipment and then they put all the new stuff in and it works like a charm.  The pool is blue again and the pump is so quiet- you can't hear it half way down the street anymore!





Saturday afternoon, we headed out for my softball game and we put Nana and Mr. Walker to work again helping mom out with field prep.  This involves a lot of dust and dirt and chalk and they were all kind of a mess after.  And unfortunately my game wasn't any better.  Once again, my team was kind of a mess and I had not a stellar night in the field.  I did hit a legitimate home run though so that was a bright spot.  I think it was all the pressure from my audience....

We had some pretty cactus flowers open up over the weekend- always pretty in the desert!
