May Fun

This is probably my favorite picture of the year because......

 

It reminds me of this!

And yes, Ryker is naked under that robe.  We were swimming out at Bayview State Park and he was cold so I let him take his trunks off because we were leaving, but then he begged to fly his kite......whatever. 

Sometimes when the house goes quiet, I find this.

Who turned out the lights?

Must be the first inning, he's totally concentrating on the batter.

"So there I was...."

Excited by the roar of the crowd.....

When the cheering stops, I'll clap for myself!

Seth hates the backwards hat....haha.  I think he picked it up from his Tball buddy Paxton.

Movin' On Up

Kya has graduated to a Water Wiggles 2 and Ryker is a Pre2 now.  What does that mean anyway?  Not much, just that they are making good progress.  We have to drive quite a ways for a pool and I've been asked by inquiring parents if we are making the commute because I want them to be on the swim team when they are older.  It never even crossed my mind.  I think of swimming as a life skill, not a fun activity or a sport.  (Not to insult the sport of swimming, it's just not my goal to perfect the Butterfly at this age)  I learned to swim young and I think it's important that these two become proficient swimmers as soon as possible, especially considering the amount of time they spend on a boat and on docks.

 

 

See, if Kya ever needs to fish a ball out of the water while holding a ring on her head, she'll be able to without falling out of the boat!

Like I was saying....life skills...haha.

 

Ryker learned that if you pick up the cone and drop it real fast, you can make a water cannon.  Yep, he got in trouble.

They love to eat home made fruit pops.  Please let that never change!

Getting a little workout in at Dave's while Dad unloaded firewood. 

 

Load two and enough room for one happy dog to ride along this time!

Camping in our yard again
