Fall Baseball 09


This is our life for six weeks in the fall. Grant plays fall and spring baseball. This team won the championship this year. He is front row 3rd from left. Daniel enjoyed a game with us one cold Saturday morning. As you can tell, he was cold. Anna and I were plenty warm.

NC State Fair 2009

One of our favorite Raleigh traditions is the fair. A few of the highlights are the food, the rides, the agriculture (Elise is milking a cow), and friends.

We love red dirt!

Here is my clean-up crew. Grant is often on the Bobcat. It is obviously his favorite part of helping and he is a pretty good driver, even according to Grandpa. Every weekend is spent cleaning up the lot. So, yes, I am already cleaning this house. Most of the time, the kids are hard workers. Evan's job is always picking up nails and believe me, he can spot them. He even picks them up when we go over every day during the week. He loves the head framer, Jose. They are pals. He is sad now that the framing is done because he doesn't get to see Jose. Insulation started today and sheetrock starts Friday or Monday. It's crazy!

A few of Their (the Kids) Favorite Things

We went to Disney in October '09 and it was a great time to go (free dining plan, great weather, no crowds) We stayed at the Yacht and Beach Club and the kids loved it. Here are a few of their favorite things from this trip. The pool and the pirate ship slide probably ranked the highest. They also loved the "soft and squishy" beds.

More favorite things... the water parks, and steak every night (for Grant). And Rachel, by the way, that is you I am talking to on the phone in the picture.
