Hello Summertime!

Last Friday was my last day of work for the summer.  Owen's last day was Thursday.  Mike has most of June off work.  We are all very excited!!

I have about 200 pictures on my phone that I've taken recently.  Here's a few...

Some of Owen's fan club.  He's had a lot of baseball games lately.  

He's had a pretty good season considering his team is much younger than most of the other teams they play.  Owen looks so little out there compared to most of the other players.  He has come SO far this season.  He wasn't all that into it, especially after he got hit in the mouth with the baseball.  But as the season has progressed he's really started to enjoy it and gained more confidence.  The kids on his team are such a good group of kids. 

 These 3 were snuggling up to keep warm during a game on a chilly night. 

The Rader's were brave enough to have the team over after their last game.  They still have playoffs so the season is not officially over.  The boys enjoyed a dip in the hot tub- HILARIOUS. 

 

Memorial Day Weekend
We took a trip to Raystown Lake to spend some time with Papa and Finney.  The boys had a blast and didn't care one bit that the lake was was chilly.

Owen driving the boat...

These goofballs love to make each other laugh.  They make up little silly commercials. 

Owen is old enough to start learning how to take care of the boat. 

Owen stayed an extra night with Papa and Finney and we came home with Adam.  The three of us went out to dinner and Adam enjoyed some wings.  This boys LOVES wings.

On Memorial Day we had a picnic at Beth and Eric's house. 

At the end of May, Owen had his final mile for his Kids Run Crest Marathon Challenge.  He ran 25 miles and then on the last day they ran their 26th mile.  He ran his final mile in 6 minutes 50 seconds.  Crazy! 

Adam decided to run a mile too.  He ran the entire thing without stopping.  We were really proud of him!

After all that running it felt good to jump in our neighbor's pool for a swim.

Adam was able to jump off the dive for the first time and swim to the edge of the pool without a floaty.  

Last weekend Mike and I went to a baby shower for friends of ours that are having their first baby in August.  We are thrilled for them!!

 

Owen's friend, Gage, had his birthday party this past weekend.  It was a flag football and basketball party and Adam was allowed to tag along too.  He's really started trying to play with the big kids lately, but he sticks by his brother's side.  It's so cute watching Owen take him under his wing and look out for him.  He's a good big brother. 

 

A before-church picture.  Probably one of the last times I can dress them alike.  Owen is starting to think it's weird to dress like his brother.  Darn. 

Go Barcelona!!

 

And then there's the kittens that have brought us so much joy.  The boys were both in tears last night at the thought that they will all go to new homes in the next few weeks.  What a wonderful experience.

 And now I'm caught up on the last few weeks.  I hope to be better about blogging this summer!
