Long Time, No See

Ok, it's been a while. Life has been kind of a whirlwind of activity. Let's see if we can catch up a bit here. It's gonna be a long one, so get comfy.

Nate's baseball career sprang into action again in May. Although his team didn't do very well in the standings, Nate had a great season perso
nally. He finally got that elusive home run and a game ball. And he proved to be quite the play-maker on first base and even got a chance to throw some pitches.


May also brought some Memorial Day camping with the Leming clan. We headed up to Frankenmuth for some geocaching, hot air balloon watching, a ton of activities for the kids with Yogi Bear, and just general fun. The hot air balloons were quite a site when they lit up at night and you were standing in the middle of them.


June may have brought the end of the school year, but it didn't slow the pace down any. The end of school brought Cub Scout day camp for Nate, led by none other than my husband, Mr. Scouts. Months of planning paid off, and Paul, Nate and everyone else had a lot of fun.


After the craziness of day camp, the kids and I took a road trip down to Dublin, Ohio, to spend some time with Jeff and Lisa. We spent some time relaxing and playing at the park, hit the COSI (one of the coolest science centers I've been to), made a splash at the water park, devoured some ice cream, and even got to catch one of Jeff's hockey games.
