Football with Dad

Dad and I spent part of our Sunday evening playing football in the front yard. I loved it and I think he did too.

Rock Hunter

One of my new hobbies I enjoy doing lately is finding "cool rocks". I love sitting under our deck or under our small playset looking at our rocks and picking out ones that I think are neat. I find smooth rocks, rocks with some design in them, some that are unique colors - all kinds and I make a pile of the ones I think are cool. I have even brought some in the house in a bowl.

Ice Cream

Last week Parker's family invited us to join them at the new ice cream shop near our house.  Dad was playing softball but Mom took Bltyhe and I. I got a chocolate dip cone. It was so yummy!

Swimming at the Pool and Outdoor Movie - Check, Check

Andrea, Drew, Parker, Me, Cole and Bella

After having a fever all day on Friday I was happy we were able to check two more things off our summer fun list on Saturday. The first one was swimming at the pool. I had my end of the season baseball pool party at the city pool. Dad took me and we had a lot of fun! I went down the slide, I put my whole head in the water - twice! It was the first time I've ever done it and I did it twice. I watched Daddy jump off the diving board. I though that was pretty cool and look forward to the day I know how to swim well enough that I can jump off the diving board. 

After our pool party I played with friends at home. Our friends, Drew, Cole, Chase and their mom Kelly are in town from Michigan. Parker and I spend the entire day playing with them. We played in the pool, played basketball, took turns riding my tractor, ran through the sprinkler, it was a great day.

The fun didn't end at night time. That night we did our backyard outdoor movie. Dad set up a sheet on the back of our house, brought the projector and dvd player out, Mom made popcorn and my friends and I had a fun time watching Wreck It Ralph, eating popcorn and M&Ms and drinking juice boxes in the backyard.

I had such an awesome day! I was wore out but it was worth it!

Fire with Friends and Smores - Check

One of the things on my Summer Fun list was to have a backyard fire and make Smores with friends. Parker and I had fun making Smores by the fire. Later Andrea joined the fun and Mom got glow sticks out for us to play with. We played hide and seek and ran around the yard until late, late that night. It was such a great summer night with my best neighbor friends. 

Baseball Season

My baseball season is over and I had a fun time. I improved quite a lot from the start of the season to the end of the season. I got better at hitting the ball off a pitch, running faster to the bases and throwing the ball.

I was a lucky boy to have some family catch a few of my games. My Grandma D. came to a game, Grandpa Cota, Uncle Dolly, Aunt Kari, Reese and Flynn came to another game, Grandpa and Grandma D. came to another game and our friends, Dan and Mary Kay came to my last game that Parker's team and my team played each other so they got to see both of us play.

Here are a few pictures from my last couple games.

School Supplies Shopping

Yesterday Mom and I went shopping for my school supplies I'll need for Kindergarten. I picked out markers, crayons, scissors, pencil box, folders, glue...all kinds of fun stuff for me to take to my first day of school. I start Kindergarten in about a month!!!
