So it seems that summer is finally here! Boy did that take forever. This summer will be busy and crazy as ever. Lots of FuN fUn FuN!
We've signed McKenna and Zander up for T-Ball. It's been a work in progress for both. Last week Zander wasn't paying attention during "batting" practice. He didn't have a helmet on and was too close to a little girl swinging her bat. Needless to say he had a pretty good goose-egg after a good 15 min of crying.
By the time the game started he was back to his normal self, which then gave McKenna the go-ahead to be a drama queen and start crying for no reason at all.
Gage can't wait to partake in the fun next summer, even though he won't quite be 3. He's already got mad skills for a 22 month old.
He impatiently stands on the sidelines just waiting for me to take my eyes off him so he can run on the field and try to steal the other little players gloves and ball.
Check out the hilarious team photo of "The Sliders". McKenna was still a Drama Queen at the time the team photo was taken, so naturally she refused to take part.
Once again, Jason had his annual Neenah Street Ball tourney this weekend. I can't believe how fast this year has gone by! It seems like I was just posting about this from last year. I would love to say Jason kicked butt and his team took 1st, however; I can't. (sigh) Jason ended up getting hurt in the 2nd game, which may result in a couple of weeks (hopefully not months!) off work and me taking care of a 4th "kid". He goes to the Dr. tomorrow but we're pretty sure he tore his Achilles tendon or calf muscle. BuMmEr x 10!
The kiddos start their summer swimming lessons tomorrow. They are really excited. This summer should be extra interesting, seeing Gage can now make a mad dash into the water vs. "drunk baby walking" to the shore like last summer.
Seeing Zander and Gage will be celebrating their birthday's soon, we decided to get them an early present.
We may have spoiled them just a bit.
All I had when I was their age was one of those Banana sprayers. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Ghetto. I think we might have had a slip-n-slide too. My parents finally came to their senses when I was in 5th grade and put in a pool, which brought me many years of summer fun. Maybe once the 3 musketeers master their swimming skills we could do the same. I would love for them to experience that. Until then, it's the outdoor lake at Marble Park and the new water toy.
GUESS WHAT!? 3 of the 4 Canadian Tenors accepted my friend request on facebook! (Go ahead, rip on me all you want.) I'm still holding out for my fave...C'Mon Fraser!!
Just press accept!
His voice eyes, mouth, teeth, hair, body, clothes, everything about him is just AMAZING!
On a serious note: Prayers for Stephanie (click on her name). She is such an inspiration to me and many others. And prayers for my almost 98 year old grandma Lepak who is getting ready to be with my Grandpa. I pray the Lord welcomes her peacefully without suffering. She's the best grandma/great-grandma/wife/mother/everything in the whole world. 
Update: Jason went to the hospital today and it's confirmed that he DID tear his Achilles Tendon and he WILL be needing surgery in the next week. Because of this he will be off work for about 5 months. Not sure what the future holds but I guess it involves me dusting off my resume to bring in some income. Say a prayer for him (and us) too!
