And This One Belongs to the Reds


And this shutout belongs to the Reds! Sorry, Brewers fans. Had to say it. There's a Reds fan in the house. And it's his birthday, so I am grateful that wish came true for him anyway.

Photo above of Jim with Mr. Redlegs and Rosie the Red was from 5 years ago already. We had a little road trip with our friends Mike and Christine and their son (Brew fans) the weekend of July 4th, 2014. It included time in Chicago, then Cincinnati for a Brewers' win in very hot weather, then back through Chicago to drop Carter off for a week of Engineering Camp.

Carter was just going into his sophomore year of high school that fall – if that gives you any indication of how we've aged since then. Well, Carter has. The birthday boy doesn't look a day older than this picture.

Other than a win – witnessed from his recliner, not the ballpark this time – it was a pretty low-key birthday. And wraps up our special event marathon on Blue Jay Drive. We're both looking forward to a relaxing, long weekend. Starting now.

Hope you'll find plenty of reasons to celebrate – no matter who your favorite baseball team is!
