June 8, 2012

There has been so much that is going on this time of year. It is hard to update every weekend.  Since the last post, we've swam in the pool, planted the garden, walked in the Memorial Day parade, played softball games, and practiced T-ball!  There is still so much to do before school gets out on June 19 and our summer vacation begins!

Maddy continues to excel in softball. She loves to play third base because "you can get someone out on their last run" and "also because I have a good arm and can get someone out at first base."  She has quite the swing too. Her hits always go to the outfield!  It gets more fun to watch with each game.  For one game, our opponent didn't have enough players so Maddy volunteered to play for them so the two teams could scrimmage.  What a good sport!

Cassidy is turning 5 on Monday, hard to believe. She will have her friend party tomorrow at the local ice cream farm with 4 of her closest boyfriends!  She has invited 4 boys from her class and our second grade neighbor down the street. We'll be happy eating ice cream and playing in the big sand pile for a few hours.

Both girls helped Gram and Gramp plant the garden on Memorial Day. We've got tomatoes, basil, squash, beans and corn. The whole family has made a pact to try to stay ahead of the weeds this year! Easier said than done, I think.  We planted after we walked in the town parade. The girls both marched with their softball/T-ball teams.
