At the beginning of September, Curtis wrapped up his 7th season with the Louisville Bats. Looking back, the season went pretty quickly. Abram and I made it out to about 8-10 games. My parents were down Labor Day weekend, so we went to the last game of the season. We tried the carousel again. The first time, earlier this summer, Abram freaked out when his horse started to move, so we switched to the bench! This time we just opted for the bench, because he was still eyeing the moving animals suspiciously. Mom took a picture almost every time we went around and we got one really good one with our faces in focus!
Maybe next summer he'll be ready for a horse!
Curtis has been in charge of making desserts for all of his co-workers birthdays for the last several years (they reimburse him for it) and we've also done a "season ending" dessert. Last year we did a nearly regulation sized home plate with the bats logo. This year we tried our first tiered cake! It was a fun project, 3 layers: 2 round and one half ball on top. We uses all butter cream icing, because nothing tastes better and the layers where white cake and red velvet. I introduced Curtis to the "grass tip" and he had fun filling in all layer tops. He left most of the smoothing and baseball to me though:-) I'm excited to do another tiered cake again sometime!
Daddy monitoring the progress.
The finished product! Ooooh! Ahhhh!
