Last T-Ball Game
Logan had his last t-ball game on Friday night. The weather was a little questionable, but they played anyway. Logan had a lot of fun. He played in the outfield and second base and then got a few chances to hit the ball. Randy played against him with all the other dads, which was a lot of fun to see! The kids got so excited when they got one of the dads out!
Riding the Train at Menomonie Park
My dad and I met Jenny and the kids for a fun afternoon at the park. We played in the castle playground, had a picnic lunch, walked through the zoo and then went on the train. The kids all had a great time. It was fun seeing them so excited to do everything. Cooper took turns pushing Olivia in the stroller; while Winston and Logan ran ahead to check out the next animal. They loved the groundhogs and the elk best of all. The highlight of the afternoon was the train ride (Ava's first time)!

Camp LuWiSoMo
Logan and I went to Kinder camp this year at Camp LuWiSoMo (the camp I went to as a kid up near Wautoma, WI), June 12-14th. It was so much fun! We had a campfire the first night we were there, along with canteen and a sing-a-long in the chapel! On Saturday we had a jam-packed day! We started off the day with a walk down to the lake then we ate eggs, bacon, scones and other fun breakfast foods in the mess hall. Then we all went into the chapel to sing praises. After that Logan and I played some volleyball, horseshoes and Frisbee golf with two of his councilors (Sasquatch and Muggles). Then down to the lake for some canoeing and paddle boating. Lunch was good and included chicken nuggets, veggies, potatoes and dessert! My dad met us up after lunch and hung out with us down by the lake. Logan swam and played games with the councilors, while my dad and I visited with each other! We had a bible study after that and my dad headed home. Then we tie died t-shirts and shot bow and arrow. Spaghetti for supper and then games in the field. Logan and I had a little down time then went down for sing-a-longs in the chapel. We each had a treat at canteen and then went down to the lake for campfire and sing a long again. Logan crashed Saturday night on the top bunk in our room! Sunday we went down to the lake again and found some minnows and a small fish. Then we ate breakfast in the mess hall and had chapel. The kids went on a hike with the councilors while the adults packed up the rooms. We had our sending off sing-a-long and back to Fort Atkinson we went! It was a great chance to spend some one-on-one time with Logan. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

4th of July
We had fun on the 4th hosting our family at our house this year. We went to the parade in Whitewater with Casey and saw some pretty amazing floats. Our favorite being the one with several men dressed as vets in still life...the gold paint ont them realy sealed the deal. Then we came back to the house to grill out. We had fun playing in the yard with badmitten, corn hole, ring toss, bache ball, swimming and visiting. Nolan had a blast with the bubbles my sister brought for the kids...as did Maddi, Logan, Cooper and Ava. Lucas enjoyed some fun cuddle time as we all took turns holding him! We chatted into the evening and had a fire on the patio! Then we got Logan and Cooper ready for the fireworks. It was Cooper's first time and he really enjoyed it. The crowds were crazy but we enjoyed it non-the-less. We ate homemade popcorn and relaxed...then off to bed for the evening. It was a busy day, but so much fun!!
Green Lake with the Heagneys
We had a blast up in Green Lake on Friday with the Heagneys! We swam in the lake, the kids fished with poles (minus the hook) and nets, we went out on the pontoon boat and the kids tubed, grilled out, built forts out of the wood pile, played corn hole and just had a great time with great friends. Thanks for inviting us out. We always have a great time!
