Quiet, Restful Day

We had a great day bowling with friends yesterday. Musa is getting to be quite the bowler. It helps him maintain his focus. He has good form when he concentrates and always says he has a lot of fun. I need to take them more often.

                                               

We had a quiet day today. It has finally cooled of a little outside. The mornings and evening are cooler, but still turning on the AC in the afternoons. We watched a couple movies. Read some Hawaiin folk tales and a story about a selfish giant. Retta is fascinated with giants. She believes there is one living in our woods. She is semi scared of them, but also very intrigued. 

                                               

We watered our fall garden. I have a second round of tomatoes, green beans, green peppers. I also have radishes, lettuce and kale. It has been nice to have such an extended growing season. I haven't decided if I am going to can applesause this year. Might let it go.

Retta played for an hour in the trampoline, creating a new game that included 5 plastic baseballs, 1 plastic baseball bat, the trampoline with net and herself. It involved bouncing while hitting the balls with the bat. The goal was to not let any of the balls hit you as they rolled around. I asked her, "If a ball hits you does that mean you lose?" She replied, "No, I have 300 hundred tries. On 301 I lose."

Life is good when you make the rules......
