Pictures anyone?

I just wanted to pass on some pictures of the last few days - the girls had their first trip to a circus, Joey got an elephant light, it was hot enough to have some outside water play time, my birthday came and went and Joey continues with his amazing food stacking skills. John hit another home run in Thursday nights baseball game and his team won again on Friday to bring their Legion team record to 8 wins no losses. Go Reds! Tommie was to have 2 baseball games in Grand Island Saturday but they were cancelled due to the 4+ inches of rain they had during the night. We got about 2 1/2 inches so everything is wet, wet, wet! Friday's temp was in the high 80's and the kids were running around in their swimsuits and today it barely reached 60 degrees. It is cool and gloomy outside today - in no way was it suitable for June! Joey has been doing really well - he seems to be fighting the gunky eye thing again but we already have the eye drops going so hopefully that will take care of it. I really don't want to put him through another tear duct probe. He has an appointment with his pediatric GI doc in July for a check up and goes to the Children's Developmental Clinic at Children's Hospital in Omaha the end of July. So right now his doctor schedule is pretty tame - knock on wood! This week John's got a couple baseball games and a tourney in Grand Island, Tommie's got a tourney in Sioux Falls this weekend, Joey's got therapy and horseback riding, the girls have their every day antics and Shawn and I will do our best to keep up with everything. Enjoy the pics!

Tommie has to get in on the fun too!

Shouldn't you always eat chocolate outside when it's 89 degrees?


I got some good shots of Abbie...

Joey showing off his food stacking skills - this time with boxed goods. Pay no attention to the kitchen floor that desperately needed mopped!
