Boys of Summer

Have I mentioned how much I love living so close to a minor league ball park? This is just the ultimate easy family summer fun. The berm (lawn) seats are almost free, the kids watch or run around or play and climb in the rec area, the grown-ups enjoy a dog and a beer, and everyone enjoys the sunshine.

School has started, and these days are running out. I'm already looking forward to next summer.

Summer Soccer Fun


So, Luke and Amelia went through one more soccer camp before the summer ended. They had a blast, and both of them were sad to see it end. I didn't mind so much, as each day hit triple digits in temperature. Although they played in the morning, it was awfully hot. I did see a big improvement from the first camp in June. We will have to squeak out some time during the school year for them to keep playing.
