Baseball

After a great afternoon at the pool we grilled brats and veggies for
dinner. We now have the fire pit going and a backyard baseball game
for entertainment. Always a great night when shared with good friends
and lots of kids.

Dive!

First day at Bittersweet Pool! Cloudy, breezy, and a bit chilly. But
still lots of fun. Looks like Little Andrew approves!

possibly go wrong?

Pool!

The third graders spent their last day of school at Hillside Pool
today. Somewhere in there is Nathanael. The temperature at the time of
this picture was a brisk 60 degrees with a slight breeze. Doesn't seem
to phase the kids at all.

Party!

With the school year finally over for the 6-12 building, it was crazy
teacher party time yesterday. One of the perks of being a SOT (spouse
of teacher) is I get invited to all the cool fun stuff without having
to put in the hours at the school.

Signed

One of the biggest highlights of Field Day is the signing of the
shirts. It looks like the kids did very well in this regard. They even
got the elusive Campingdad signature!

their shirts signed.

Birthday

How does it feel to be closer to 40 then 30??? Happy birthday to the
bestest best friend a guy could ever ask for. Who knew that a random
prayer circle at the Denver Christmas Conference in 1995 would lead to
a friendship of over 17 years?? You are truly a Big F friend and I'm
blessed and honored to know a man like you. Thanks for your
friendship, your trust, and all the coffee and beer we have shared
over the years. Happy birthday.

Baller!

Killing two stones with one blog post, here is Nathanael all suited up
for his first night of baseball practice. He has wanted to play for
several years, and his folks finally got him signed up. In his right
hand is the award he earned at the assembly on Friday: PERFECT
ATTENDANCE for the school year!

Hippies

Last Friday was the annual "Hippie Feel Good Day" at Frontier. No one
really knows what it means or how it got started, but the kids love it
because they get to dress like their parents or grandparents did back
in the 1960's and 70's. Tie dye and Afros!!
