Baseball Time again

Jack practicing his swing before his game in the back yard.

We all get excited when he gets a hit, just wished he would swing harder more often.

He loves getting on base. I hope I can get a picture of his face at one of the games. It is priceless!

Only 5 games left of the 16 game season. We are thinking this will be his last season, since his true passion is swimming!

Heat Wave

Ahh Yes... The sun has been out in full force and so has the heat. This week we opened the pool and the boys wanted to go in, before I even vacuumed it. It is now all clean, but we will need a new pump and filter. I really hope the new system last longer than 3 years.

Yesterday, we enjoyed Higgins Lake by taking the boat out. Jack LOVED riding in the tube. I tried it too, but that is not for me. I am paying for it now with a sore back. Tyler went with Jack for a little bit, but once was enough for him too. Jack was trying to get a girls attention and his pick up line went like this:"I'm celery...tall, green and crunchy." All Ryan and I heard was the tall, green and crunchy...we laughed so hard.  Ryan will have to help Jack on being suttle to woo a girl. He is only 7 and is all about girls.

Al and Pat joined us for the afternoon and then we all went to Big Boy for ice cream. Jack had to get pancakes though.
