Zach and Abby

Reading with Daddy!

Reading a book with Daddy.  Good times.

Swimming!

For Father's Day, we spent the day at home.  Andy and the boys had a great time swimming!

Falling...that's funny.

Closing VBS program

Alex participated in VBS this year! It took some convincing, but he enjoyed going with his class. I helped with the snacks, so we all went all went every day. They had 'babysitting', but Zach just seemed to follow me around. Next year Zach can have a class too.

Here's a shot of Alex with some of his friends, Clare and Belle.

Zach at the game!

... needless to say, he was less than interested.

Alex's First T-Ball Game!

Well, I think I *finally* have this all here - - and right! :)

Alex had his first t-ball game Monday night.  They have 14-16 kiddos on a team, all between the ages of 4 and 8.  There are 5 teams, and they all play against each other - so we don't have to travel to other towns just yet. :)

They play two full innings (three if there's time), and everyone bats and runs every inning.  Everyone also plays the field (hence the reason Alex is one of 6 "pitchers" in one of the pictures).  It was quite the experience.....laughing silly at some of the antics of these little folks, and also a little bit of bittersweet....as I realize that my little boy isn't quite so little anymore.  

Anyway, on to the videos:

He has at least two more games left (there is a coach from North Loup trying to get her team up here, so one more game may be possible).
