Veterans Memorial Park

The kids have been wanting to go to  the "castle" park for a while now, ever since Ryan saw it when he went to Casey's work. The weather was perfect last week and so we were finally  able to go! They had a lot of fun!






Cooper liked throwing the wood chips. He is such a troublemaker.



Riley had fun on the tire swing with some friends she made at the park.

Game #2!

Riley, Ryan, and Ethan had their second Tee ball game on Thursday. This game went so much better! I think the kids felt much more relaxed, and they definitely had more fun! They all did a great job!


 The classic Cooper look.


 Ethan and Ryan getting ready to play!

 Ryan played first base. He had fun catching the ball. 

 Ryan running to first base after hitting the ball.


 I finally got Cooper to smile for the camera!

 Riley had much more fun this game! She did a great job hitting the ball!



 Throwing grass at Ethan. He is such a stinker.


 Riley played 2nd base in the 3rd inning. She liked throwing the ball back to the coach.


This is what Cooper did to entertain himself during the last part of the game. This boy is going to give me lots of gray hairs.

Tee Ball!

Riley, Ryan, and Ethan had their first Tee Ball game yesterday! It was a little chaotic at times, and there were a few tears, but I think everyone ended up having a fun time!


 Cooper really wanted to play! He's going to be a tough little athlete someday!


 Their team is called the Fireballs. They are so cute!


 Here is Riley batting. She said that hitting the ball was her favorite part of the game.


 Ryan up to bat.  I think he will be a good little baseball player someday!



 Riley, Ryan, and Ethan getting ready to field the ball...things got a little crazy when all the kids started going for the ball at the same time!




Cooper liked watching the game. He also kept himself entertained by putting grass in his hair.


 Here's Riley after running the bases. After this she got upset because one of the boys kept on putting grass in her hair.

Here she is pouting while playing 3rd base. She also decided she was going to walk, not run, all the bases when it was her time to bat. She is stubborn like her Daddy :)


 Here's Ethan showing off his awesome fielding skills :)  He is so cute!



 Cooper helped Daddy coach 3rd base for a little while.




Daddy teaching Ryan some awesome base running skills :)

Treat time after the game! Riley was still mad, but she cheered up soon after that and now she's excited for the next game!

Go Fireballs!! :)

Grizzly Park

Last week I took the kids to Grizzly Park. It ended up being pretty chilly outside and so we didn't get to stay for very long, but I think they still had fun!















This slide kinda freaked me out a little bit! I was nervous they were going to fall over the sides, but Riley and Ryan loved it!






I like this slide a lot better!
