End of Season 1st Runners-Up

June 14th was Will's 6-7 year-olds coach-pitch tournament.  The SeaDogs ended up in 2nd Place for the season with a record of 7-4.  The boys then went on to place 1st Runner Up in the Tournament.

Warming Up

Will had a terrific season, even though he battled Walking Pneumonia for about three weeks.  He has improved so much and we are so proud of him!

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to one of the best Dad's (the other best Dad being My Dad!)
On Father's Day morning, Shannon's Papa was surprised when some of the family showed up at his church.  This was his first Sunday back at church after recovering from a broken hip.

After church, we met Steph and Nick to take Dad out for lunch, then back to Papa and Nana's to play.


Happy Father's Day Dad!  We love you!

Then Sunday night we had Family Night at church and the kiddos put on a little Father's Day program for the Dad's.

Birthday in June

My sisters-in-law and my birthday are all within a month of each other. So for our birthdays my FIL got us a guided striper fishing trip.  Now two things that makes that funny - 1.  I am not a fisher or really any outdoorsy type at all 2.  The boys would have LOVED to got that but they didn't.  I have to admit that I had a great time.  You can see our pics here - go to Customer Pictures - then 05-13.
Our morning started out REALLY early.  We had taken the boys to the fair the night before and didn't get in until late.  Then we had to be at the marina by 4:30 AM.


I can't really read these things but this is supposed to be an awesome school that we found.

My SIL Melinda didn't get to go so Shannon took her place.  He offered to go and film Jennifer and me, but we finished early so he also got to fish. Just want to point out this is the first time I've ever held a fish - it was gross - but I had to have my picture taken. 

Bigger and Better Fair


 This past week has been fair week.  Here are a few pictures of the boys having fun.  They met up with some friends and rode rides over, and over, and over! 

Jayson's face (right behind Walker) in this picture is priceless


Walker's favorite ride- the motorcycles.

Catch A Rainbow

When Shannon found out that Catch A Rainbow was Saturday, all of our plans quickly changed.  They were asking me if I wanted to go and Walker, "Come on Mom, we might catch a rainbow."  At that point I had to explain that they were rainbow trout, not rainbows.  They had SO much fun and came home with all kinds of prizes.  Someone said there was around 1300 children there.

Look at that trout!
