Take Me Out to the Ball Game

Minnesota vacation pt 2

The girls were not big fans of the boat ride. They barely could see out of the life jackets we bought for them. They did watch when we were fishing out on the lake but did not make a move when the boat was going through the water.

Getting ready to go for our ride.

Fishing

Summer in Minnesota with Lori's side of the family. We had a great week of fishing, riding the pontoon, paddle boating, staying inside during the rain and even had s'mores on the bonfire one night.

Sarah learned how to climb out of her "crib" while in Minnesota and thought she was pretty funny. Just when the adults thought the two smallest of our group were asleep, Sarah would come sashaying out of our bedroom with a very proud smile on her face. She was cute but it got old.

Grandma taught the girls their ABCs one night and they have just continued this summer to get better at singing them.

I'll post a few photos with this blog but also post more with just some captions to go along.

T-Ball with Noah

I thought maybe it was time to finally get some pictures posted from this summer and all our goings on. It was full of t-ball, fishing with Spencer and Tanner, and visiting our California grandma and saying goodbye to James' dad. It was a busy summer but a great summer of family, friends, and fun.

Noah's first time up to bat.

Safe at first base.

Bringing it home!

Noah was even "featured" in an article in the Omaha World Herald in June right around the time of the College World series. He had a full page picture on the special section. You'll have to ask him about it and see the page when you come to visit.
