Today was the River Rockets Baseball game! It was a bright and early morning, we woke up about 8, half the group went shopping to get materials for the next day, and the other group started on making pancakes for breakfast, and packing lunches for today! The shopping spree was a success! Madeline made very good pancakes, while Aubrey and Gabby made delicious peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Once the shopping group got back to the convent we got to work on our posters for tomorrow, and made all the games. Reese and Gabby got to work on the Feed the Bear poster, Cali, Myla and Aubrey were working on the would you rather's and sweet vs salty. Once we finished all of our jobs we got to eat a wonderful breakfast! Marin and Kalena got to to work on the dishes while the others were finishing up the posters.  A little after breakfast we had to pack up for tomorrow to head home. Some of us were already packed up, and we just relaxed for a little bit. We grabbed our lunches and headed out to shopping! We were headed for a coffee shop, but once we got to the shop it was closed. We decided just to go hang out at some shops, and we all went our own ways to go to some boutiques! We met up later and stopped at a coffee shop and many of us got coffee, and tea. Once we were down with our shopping we headed to the Eagle Point Park! We found a nice sunny table to sit down and eat our lunches. It was a beautiful park, were you can see the Mississippi river! We headed back to the convent once agin to pack up so more. We got in our vans and headed to the residental center for our tour! We got to see/learn many new things! It was very cool to see new things! Once we were done with the tour, we got back in the van for our long car ride to the game! We got to the baseball game, and it was so much fun! Our clients were very friendly and happy they saw us again! We got two suite rooms for the game. The best part was the fireworks at the end, everyone loved it! We got to see many smiles today! It was a long car ride home, everyone slept though. We are  very excited for tomorrow to help the kids!
