WEEKEND
Jake & I went to a Scout day camp on Saturday. We went on a nature hike, made a craft, shot BB guns, shot bows & arrows, went swimming and had dinner. Jake loved every minute of it & I enjoyed watching him have fun.
Allie enjoyed her time with her aunts, uncles, cousins & grandparents. She kept thanking Mandy for letting her stay so that she didn't have to go to camp! She would have been bored out of her mind if she went.
I forgot to post last week that Jake lost his first baseball game 7-4. He had 2 good hits & did a great job playing short stop & 3rd base. Allie finished up dance class and will start again in September. Both kids had a good week of swimming.
I picked up a Wii today for my kids...Scott is included in that description. They bowled earlier and Allie had a 148, Scott had a 119 and Jake a 114. Allie was THRILLED...the boys were mad! Allie also cleaned up in boxing & knocked a guy out in about 10 seconds. We decided that she is a Wii Olympian!
This week brings 2 baseball games for Jake, 2 t-ball games for Allie, 2 swimming lessons for the kids & we hope to get the waterpark more than one time this week. Sturgis Falls is this weekend, it is scaled down a bit due to the destruction in North Cedar Falls from the flooding & the tornado that went through that area too. The kids have both been invited to march in the parade again...we may just watch this year. We'll take in the Kids Tent & listen to our favorite piano duo at the bandshell on Saturday. Jake & Scott decided to run the Sturgis 5k together on Sunday morning. Scott hadn't trained enough for the 1/2 marathon so he & Jake went running this afternoon & decided to do the 5k. Al & I will cheer on our boys.
