B & B Saturday

Part of me wishes I meant a quiet weekend at a Bread and Breakfast but it wouldn't have been nearly as fun.
The first "B" is for "Baseball", no surprise there but this time the boys weren't playing they were watching.  The College Championships were being contested out at the USA Baseball fields in Cary only about 20 min. from the house.  
Chris took our three boys and two of their friends.  When they got there they met up with other friends from homeschool and baseball.  The park was quite beautiful and the game exceptionally played.  Lance and Connor hung out to watch the game, the other boys divided their time between watching the game and playing on the lawns surrounding the fields.  Everyone had a great time!

They came home to a very big surprise....  Grandpa Harvey was at the house waiting for them!  I had told them we might have company to encourage their enthusiastic support in cleaning the house on Friday but I hadn't told them whom might be coming.  They were all very excited.
After relaxing a bit we all piled into the car to go to the Booth Amphitheater to listen to the symphony play our second "B",  Beethoven's 5th Symphony.  We had been studying Beethoven, all the boys have been learning to play Beethoven on the piano this spring and the boys had nearly memorized the Audio CD "Beethoven Upstairs" but we had never had the opportunity to hear the entire 5th symphony, so the boys had really been looking forward to this event.  The Amphitheater is only 15 min from the house, and you can bring whatever you can carry.  The kids are always free to the Summerfest Concerts so we were pleased to see lots of them (then I didn't have to worry as much about Little Miss and Titus making a little noise).  It was a truly enchanting evening, such beautifully moving music and surroundings.
