World's of Fun

At the end of June, we spent the day at World's of Fun with friends.  Andy is finally tall enough to ride most of the rides; however, Planet Snoopy is still his favorite area of the park. 

Boys of Summer

Andy's baseball team wrapped up their season last week.  He improved on his hitting and fielding this season with some "deadly" plays on first base.  Most importantly, he had fun!

A Day Off!

Today we celebrated Scott's birthday by giving him a day off!  The kids and I went to the zoo.  We ran into some friends by the polar bears and spent the rest of the day exploring the zoo with them.  Despite a little rain, it was a great day...hopefully Scott agrees!

Day at The K

Yesterday we took the kids to watch the Royal play (and lose).  The kids didn't seem to notice between the ice cream and carousel ride.  The highlight of the day was a trip around the bases at the end of the game!


Rounding second!

Home Run!

Last Day of 1st Grade!

May 23 marked the last day of First Grade for Andy.  He had a great year with a great teacher!  He is looking forward to summer, though I think he is going to miss his friends.

Summer Baseball

It's that time of the year!  Baseball has started!  It's amazing how fast they are improving.  We are having a blast watching the boys grow and learn at the game.  Their enthusiasm and excitement for a good hit or great play are priceless!

End of the Year Dance Program

Over the last year, Sammy had her first introduction to dance.  She took Pre-Dance at Bellar with Miss Sharon.  The class was an introduction to ballet, tap, gymnastics and always ended with an art project.  Sammy's favorite part was the project followed by gymnastics.  We have been treated to a daily exhibition of cart wheels, summersaults and bridges throughout the year.  Last week we had a chance to see her in action with her class.  Instead of a recital, families are invited to the last class of the year where the girls show off their stuff!  Sammy makes a very beautiful ballerina.  Unfortunately, she takes after her mom and isn't interested in any more dance.  She does, however, want to continue gymnastics!
