Princeton Picnic and Softball Game

We enjoyed a nice Sunday afternoon outside at the Princeton picnic and softball game.  The boys got to play in the game this year and they were over the moon. 

 

Little Tiger Katie...



Grrrrrrrrrr

Will playing ball... he could not be happier.

Braves Game - Chipper's Jersey Retirement Game

We took the boys to a Braves game.  We went for Chipper Jones' jersey retirement night.  The boys were big fans of Chipper so they were excited.  It was a nice ceremony and great night at the ball field.

 



Chillin out at the Braves game in the AC. :)

Cotton Candy, Sam.

Dippin' Dot Boys...

Will's Birthday Party - A Pops Party

Will's birthday party this year was what he called a "Pops Party."  When talking with him earlier in April/May about what he wanted for a party (lazer tag, bowling, sleep over, etc.)... he out of the blue said he wanted a Pops Party.  Well, I had no idea what that was so he went on to explain... he wanted a party where it was just him and Pops and they would camp out, fish, ride golf carts, and all that other fun woodsy-stuff they do.  He was so excited and of course Pops went beyond the call of duty in making the "party" one that Will will remember forever! 

 

Got the tent ready... I think Will's words were that it looked a "little jacked up."



 

Will's big fish from Day 1...



 

Day 2 fish.. from what Will told me they "tore it up."

 Catfish...

Lunch break from NuWay.

Setting up the new deer feeder at Uma and Pops house.

 

Will being Will...

This was from the kickoff of Will's party.  I'm having technical difficulties and can't get the picture to rotate... anyway, I think you can see how cute he is.  Plus, he's showing off his new boots that Uma and Pops gave him.

Florida with the Boys - Legos and Waterparks, oh my!

I decided the take the boys to Florida (our annual trip with my girlfriend's got canceled).  We were looking for something fun to do so we headed south.  Uma and Pops were going to keep Katie anyway - so Uma came along with us and agreed to be Katie's sidekick.  We rented a condo and had a ball.  One day at LEGOLAND and one day at Typhoon Lagoon Disney's waterpark.

 

Uma and Katie went with us to LEGOLAND.  They spent most of the day riding the carousel.  Katie loved it.  She still often says, "horse, up and down, ride with Uma."  When we went to the waterpark, Uma and Katie hung out at the condo at the pool.

 

It was a great trip!

 

The boys in front of a Ford Explorer made of Legos.



 

 Lego Darth!

Sam was in heaven!  LEGOLAND was made for little boys like him.   He was in awe and just had to inspect how every little thing was made. 

These faces are priceless...

 Sam on the first ride of the day.  This is one happy, happy kid!

 Katie on the carousel.  This is where she and Uma hung out most of the day.  : )

My sword-wielding kids...

LEGOLAND is where the old Cypress Gardens were.  Uma talked to us about the girls in big dresses that she remembered as a kid... well, here is the Lego Lady in the big dress.

 

 

Here is the one photo of us at Typhoon Lagoon!  Cruising around the lazy river...we had a ball!

June Fun

June was just too much fun.  Here are a few snapshots of some of the excitement.

 

The kiddos hanging on Uma and Pop's front porch...



Katie dressed up in wings and rain boots.

We spent a lot of time at the ball field in early June.  Katie was quite the ball field trooper.  One day the supply closet was left open and she found her way in.  Cute little girl in a mess of baseball helmets, bags of baseball chalk, and bats...

Happy Father's Day!

We love our Daddy!  Happy Father's Day to the best Daddy ever!
