Mud Hens Game

My work had a family picnic at the Mud Hens. It was pretty hot and steamy, but we suffered through it. The boys were very lucky and each caught a soft baseball from. And then, a person in front of us caught a fowl ball and gave it to the boys! They were very excited. They played baseball with it in the circle for weeks. 

Rough First Week of Kindergarten

It was a rough first week of kindergarten. Nick was very tired every night! We were well prepared for it and just let me do his thing, but he was a sleep very early every night that week.

Balyeat's Only Cedar Point!

The first Friday of both boys being in school and what did I do? Go to Cedar Point, of course! Sarah was in town so we made our second sister's trip of the year - a day at CP. We rode the new ride, which was pretty awesome. Hope the boys enjoyed their first Friday of the school year while I enjoyed America's Rockin' Roller Coast!

First Day of School

The first day of Kindergarten and 2nd grade :( The boys were super excited! I took them over to CDC, where they got on the bus and then met them at school when they got off the bus. I somehow lost the getting off the bus pictures, but it was very cute. Nick was so excited! And there are a ton of kindergartners on his bus, so he has gotten to know a lot of his classmates. They all thoroughly enjoy trading Pokemon cards on the bus.

Zoo'n It

Adam's work had a family picnic at the zoo. We didn't stay too long, but the boys did get to see the baby polar bear and ride the carousel.

That Poor Dog

Look at her eyes. No wonder she runs and hides from the boys. 

Last Day of Pre-K :(

I waited until Nick's last day in his preschool room to make him take his last day of pre-k picture. It was a little bit sad. But he was super excited to graduate to the school-age room at CDC

Sportsway Fun

Cub scouts had a fun night at Sportsway where the kids got to play golf, do batting cages and race go-karts. Nick wanted to play putt putt first, while Ben really wanted to do the batting cages. Then they both made Adam take them on the go-karts a few times. 

Scooter Race

You will be happy to know, there were no ER requiring injuries 

Ice Cream Truck Aftermath

Perrysburg Pool Time

Tiffany and I took the kids back to the P'burg pool the next day. The high dive king was in his glory. And even persuaded Lexi to do it with him! And of course, ice cream dinner afterwards. 

A High Dive Monster Is Born

Ben became a fairly proficient swimmer this summer. He passed the swim test at the daycare pool. I tried to get him to do the test at the P'burg pool, but he wouldn't do it. Adam took the boys to a night time cub scout pool party, and of course, that was when Ben decided he could take the swim test. Well, he did, and passed, and bought himself the ability to do the high dive. And then he became addicted.

Just a lazy summer evening of selfies. 

Water Bubbling Up Out of the Earth

This one time, the water line in the circle busted. It took a week to get it repaired and three months later, the ground is still torn up and a mess from where they had to dig up the water line. Not pleased.
