Summer is here!

Here's Joshua at one of Jeremy's baseball games.



Summer 2011 has begun and we have been busy. Since our last post...Jeremy finished up his 4th grade year with all A's. Hooray for Jeremy!!! He also did very well on his State Assessment Tests. He is playing parks and rec baseball this year. He pitches and plays outfield most of the time. They are undefeated!!

He attended Washburn's Football Camp the second week of June and had a blast! He has Washburn Basketball Camp the last week of June. He comes up to Mama's nose, now. He's getting tall!! The rest of his summer plans are to play, play, play. Mama and Mommie's plans are work, chores, swimming, etc.

Joshua is getting tall, too. He put on some sweats yesterday that fit this spring and they were 2 inches too short!! He has spent some time with Grandma H so far this summer. He is the major entertainment at Jeremy's baseball games...he is always doing something to make everyone laugh. He also likes playing in the dirt and usually looks like a little piggy!!! He is all boy!!!

He is starting the potty training stuff. Mostly will tell you after he has gone. But it's a start. We have had numerous comments about how well he speaks for a 2 year old. He talks non-stop!!!

His favorite pasttime is camping. He asks everyday to go camping. We have camped several times this year, so far. Finally got the boat out on the water this past weekend. We had friends visit from Kansas City. We had a great time. Water is high at the lake so we have to leave our campground to put the boat in, but we don't have to go too far.

Mama, Mommie and Jeremy went on a Disney Cruise the first week of June to the Bahamas. They had a great time! They went with our friends Tami, Connie and Zeph. Josh stayed at Grandma's, because he's still a handful and we were afraid he'd jump ship!! Ha! Ha! Josh had more fun at Grandma's than he would have had with us. They don't let kids under 3 in the pools.
We plan on going on another one so Josh can go.

The weekend before the cruise, we celebrated Grandma H's birthday with a BBQ for her family. Grandma T came too. Then on Sunday, we all went to Baldwin City and rode on Thomas the Train. That was fun. They had tents set up with train sets to play with. They had tatoos, bubbles, food, entertainment, etc. We played for awhile, rode with Thomas and bought some new Thomas toys. (Cause we don't have enough!!)

Mommie has been trying to work on her proposal for her dissertation but there is so much going on that she doesn't get much time for it. Hopefully that will change in July. She still commutes to Topeka everyday for work. Mama's still working at KSU and the lawn business. We are up to 23 properties. It keeps us busy. Thank goodness for Uncle Kelly's help.

Hope to get pictures posted soon.
