I think Christian may drop soccer and play basketball instead next year (not this coming fall/winter). He really enjoyed basketball camp.

Basketball camp
Thursday, July 17th, 2008A little bit of Alyson’s summer
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Alyson has been enjoying her continuing time at daycare. July 2nd, when I went to pick her up, one of the teachers was painting her nails patriotically. Alyson also got to go on a field trip to the park that day! She’s getting so big.
She’s our studious one. She is happiest surrounded by crayons, and asks daily to go to the library.
And her artwork is quite easy to understand much of the time. Here are some flowers. She also writes her name (and Mommy), checkmarks, hearts, and stars quite well.
Race for the cure 2008
Thursday, July 17th, 2008June 21st, we were excited to participate in the Seattle Komen Race for the Cure again. It’s become quite the tradition. We were sad Mom couldn’t walk with us this year, but we did meet up with Christian’s 2nd grade teacher so that was great. We had a great time for a great cause. Afterwards, we drove up to Arlington to celebrate Kalie’s graduation!
Baseball camp
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Brandon’s first foray into baseball had its ups and downs. The first week of camp, he thought it was really fun. This week, they had different coaches… much more intense coaches. For the most part, camp has been really fun and not at all the serious baseball Christian just finished with the Padres.
Here are the boys ready for their first day of camp for the summer:
And is this ready position?
How about this?
One more pic of the baseball boys:
Our summer so far
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Look out for a flurry of posts to follow… we’ve had a busy summer already!
The kids started off the summer with a week of baseball camp. Thankfully, Brandon really enjoyed that first week of camp. Brandon’s not nearly as thrilled with baseball this week, but he’ll live.
The following week, the only camp available was a basketball camp for kids ages 7+. Brandon got to go to work with Bill every day for a week! Christian loved basketball, and when Bill went to watch he described Christian as the next Gary Payton.
That week was incredibly hectic as we tried to wrap things up for our Hawaii trip. We fit in a few fireworks on the 3rd, packed, and at the last minute realized we didn’t have Alyson’s birth certificate. Thankfully no one asked us for one, but we’ll be ordering multiple copies shortly.
Lots of Hawaii posts to follow, as well as pictures from camps!
