All of the Angell eight are out of the single-age digits as we celebrated Caleb's tenth birthday yesterday. Tsheko, a recently converted baseball fan, took Caleb (and his new baseball glove), Jake and Isaac to Yankee Stadium for an amazing game in which the Yankees scored eight home runs and beat the White Sox by a score of 16:3.
Meanwhile, my friend Emily and I helped Mariah celebrate her sixteenth birthday with pizza and a manicure. Isaac, Nate, Hannah and Jake spearheaded the cement project of the day - placing the sidewalk. Rebecca and I worked on applying linseed oil to the shingles and Mariah treated us to freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies.
