The kids have been using the place where our pool is going to be for their ball field! They have spent hours out there taking turns pitching and batting. There is usually some argument about how many strikes, balls, and if they are "out" or "safe", but for the most part have had lots of fun! The night before we started on the pool they wanted to have one last "ballgame"!
Kyann decided to wear a helmet just to be safe!

NINE KIDS AND THREE MOMS!!!
We went to the Washington Park and then to McDonalds with Darla, Erin, Kylie, & Blake and Kim, Issac, Olivia, & Elizabeth. Kaitlyn & Erin are good friends from school. Kendrick & Isaac are going to be in Kindergarten together this fall. They met at Kindergarten round-up and have been buddies ever since! We wanted to get them all together over the summer. We went on a VERY hot day. It was even hot at mcDonalds but I think everyone had a good time anyway!
All the kid's at McDonalds!
Kyann was not a happy camper!

Kaitlyn and Kendrick both played ball in the Frank Roberts Youth League in Odon. Kaitlyn played 10 & under girls softball. Kendrick played T-ball. The first day of the season is called "opening day". There is a parade and each team rides on a float. The kids throw candy to their parents! Then after the parade is over everyone gets to play about 3 innings in a practice game.It's lots of fun and a great way to start the season!!
Kaitlyn with her team!
Karsyn & Kendrick before the parade started. It was chilly out that morning!

Kaitlyn was at a different place waiting for the parade to start so i didn't get any pictures of her except for the one when she was going through the parade!:(
All of the T-ball players got a trophy. Kendrick was very proud of his. He held it all the way home from Odon the night that he got it!
Kaitlyn's team got 2 trophys. One for coming in second place in the league and one for coming in first place in the playoffs. She was very excited to get TWO trophys!!
I thought this was so adorable! Kendall is sharing his ring pop with Kyann during one of Kendrick's games!
SO ADORABLE!!

Kendrick taking in all the action. He really took an interest in Kaitlyn's games this year. He sat in her dug out almost every game and learned all their chants and chatter. One night on the way home he asked why his T-ball team doesn't sing like Kaitlyn's team does!:)

We found these wild baby rabbits in the landscaping while pulling weeds this spring. Of course the kids wanted to keep them! So we put them in a box with some grass and weeds and fed them with a medicine dropper. Kaitlyn did real good helping me feed them at first, but soon lost interest. Kendrick never did get the hang of it. So you can guess who got stuck feeding them...MOM!! Of course, being a mother, I wasn't going to put them back outside and let them starve! So I faithfully fed them twice a day for about three weeks then one morning I went out in the garage and found that the bunnies had clipped two flowers, that I hadn't got planted yet, completely off!! I told Kaitlyn & Kendrick that I was sure the bunnies would do fine out in wild!:)
We waited until dark the next night to let them go. Kaitlyn & Kendrick were both a little sad but Calvin explained to them that that's how God intended for wild animals to live and that they would be fine. Kaitlyn thought for a little bit and then said. "Well I sure am glad that God didn't make me a wild animal b/c I wouldn"t like to be out here in the dark by myself all night"!!
