Softball season has begun


Last night Nina had her first softball game. Although they lost 13-7, the girls looked great for their first game out. Nina went 1 for 2 (they usually only get a couple of at bats in per game) and scored. Pretty sure the team would have won if their star pitcher was there. She was home sick. Julia enjoyed the game as well mostly in her stroller but we did get her out so everyone could see her and also she got hungry. :)

Beautiful day here yesterday so Julia and I got out for a nice walk with our neighbor Jill Viso. Jill is full of neighborhood info so i need to walk with her more often to get to know everyone around here. Another funny thing we discovered yesterday that the name Julia (or the form of this name) is very popular in our cul de sac/neighbors. Within the cul de sac itself, we have my Julia, neighbor Julie and neighbors Julian and son Julian. Behind me we have our neighbors Julia and Julie. We hope to have a bbq sometime this summer with all the "J's". Hopefully after we get our retractable awning installed. Still waiting on word from the home owner's association on that while i'm getting quotes.

Such cutie pies!

Yesterday I walked down a street in SoHo where they were filming the movie "Julie and Julia" - made me think of you know who!

Way to go Nina! Wish I could go to one of your softball games!

I love the sweater from Jill-she told me about it but didn't mention the colorful edging and hat.

What a lot of Julias! JAF is getting out a lot these days-just the beginning!

Lots of love, S
