Bocce

Mr. Morgan's employer Atlas Technologies participates every year in a Bocce tournament to benefit The Special Olympics. Mr. Morgan took an empty spot on one of four company teams. His team was Yamato's, and the other teams from Atlas were Bocce Techs, Say Bocceeze, and Boccelicious. The Bocce Techs team won the whole tournament last year, but Mr. Morgan's team didn't fare so well this year.



But being outside in the beautiful weather was fun, and Claire had a great time. She, of course, made a friend before lunch time, so they played together the whole day.

I brought along little Abby Koch to enjoy the day with us; Bryce and Tiff were so sweet to let us "borrow" her for the day. She's such fun (being almost 2), and she really loved these giant stuffed safari animals that were on display at one end of the field. I mistakenly called the rhino a hippo at first, so for the rest of the day li'l Abbs kept saying, "ippo!" every few minutes to indicate her desire to go back and play on the animals.

Abby was fascinated with watching the guys throwing the Bocce balls, and she's fond of Mr. Morgan, whom she calls, "Ses."
