Hey Batter, Batter

Holyn had her second baseball game today. The first game was a tie, but this one was a win. Holyn got a hit in practice, but just missed one during the game. She played second base and centerfield and always ran to get the ball. Her buddy Lauren (in pink) is on her team along with the coach's daughter, so she is not the only girl this time. We still haven't gotten our jerseys yet, Holyn suggested pink for the color, but that didn't sit so well with the 10 boys. Oh well, she's still fabulous!

Speed, I am Speed!!

Before leaving Badgertown, the kids and I got to take a spin in Lightning McQueen (Papa Jim & Boppa's corvette). Max and Holyn sat side by side, for the first time in the front seat. They really loved the roar as Papa Jim stepped on the gas. Too bad our van isn't a convertable too.

Grandparents, Garage Sales & Graduation

During our visit to Iowa, we got to see Grandpa & Grandma Hoyer, Uncle Chris and lots of cousins! It was a quiet visit for me, I lost my voice on the way home and had to whisper to everyone. The kids didn't seem to mind the silence! First we setup and held a windy Garage Sale in Badger. Next we helped with Alex's Graduation Party and got to see Will get confirmed. It was a quick trip, but we really enjoyed seeing all our family!

Silly String

Had a great time at Boppa and Papa Jim's house today. After 10 long hours in the car, they needed to blow off some steam (or string). Holyn and Max chased Papa Jim around the backyard laughing and screaming. Max did his best to run and spray, which is a hard task for a 3 year old. Holyn got Papa right in the face too. One word to the wise, silly string stains (say that 5 times fast)- so wear black!
