Righty or Lefty?

Day 75.

Happy Saturday everyone!!!

I love that we always have so much to do on the weekends. I mean our calendar is seriously booked and I love it. We have found so many fun activities to help us make memories and pass the time while Alex is gone.

So, today, Hudson started the first of his three sports that he's asked to try while we're here. He started Golf. First things first, we had to establish if he was a righty or a lefty for golf because even though he writes left handed, we've come to learn that with baseball and a few other things he plays as though he's right handed. Well, we learned today that Hudson is definitely a righty for golf.

      

Hudson had a blast and thought it was so cool that we were all there to watch him, since he's usually always at things for Madison and having to watch her. I think he enjoyed being in the spotlight a little bit. :) I love that he and my dad can share this little golf activity together and he loved that grandpa was there watching him too!

Here is a little video of Hudson at one of the stations:

After golf was over, the kids and I went to the Patriot's Day Celebration in Palm Desert. The kids had a lot of fun looking at all of the different booths that were set up and they LOVED all of the flags that were flying! 

Two of their favorite things from while we were there were getting to take a picture with the Homeland Security vehicle and getting to see the Border Patrol Cavalry. Madison loved getting to pet the horses. 

   

After we were finished, we headed to the park. Hudson made a new friend named Cash and had a blast. They played all over the jungle gym and then went into the big open field and they played soccer and through the football. 

Madison and I brought our gloves and she wanted to play catch for a bit, so we did and had a lot of fun. Afterwards, Madison went back to being in full gymnast mode. She found a long stretch of grass that was void of hills, bumps and holes and practiced all sorts of gymnastics and had a blast. I was able to snap a quick picture in the midst of watching her and watching Hudson play with his new friend. 

After the park, we came back and had lunch. While we ate lunch Alex facetimed us and we all watched the new Star Wars Rebels episodes. We had visitors while we were watching our show. My mom and her best friend popped over to bring the kids some fun hats. Hudson had mentioned wanting a Dodgers' hat and of course since they are in the World Series now, my parents wanted to get him one and Madison still requested and Angel's hat. ;) The kids loved them (I forgot to take a picture). Anyway,  the kids really enjoyed getting to watch Star Wards Rebels with Alex. Then, they each took turns talking with him. 

Tonight for movie night we watched a new movie (at least to us), The Secret of MoonAcre. The kids really enjoyed it and I actually did too! It had some decent people in it too!

Hope y'all had a great day and that you have a wonderful Sunday!
