What's Been Going On...

So here's what has happened lately...

Cade had a field trip to Killens Pond. There he learned some things about local animals at the park and caught a frog.

Baseball season has been going well. The team doesn't have the power it did last year, but the kids are having fun. I'd say they are probably the 3rd best T-Ball team of the 8 teams there are. Cade is a more influential player this year. His presence is actually felt now on the team. This year first, second, pitcher, and catcher have been his main positions. Cale loves to cheer him on. I am assisting once again as a coach. His team sponsor is Dover PD - FOP.

Mother's Day came and went. Shelly didn't have the greatest day as the kids really drove her nuts that day. We did manage to meet up with all the grandmothers and take some photos. I'm sure they will be angels on Father's Day. They love their daddy more. LOL! :)

Playground fun! The weather has been very nice lately. Every now and again we'll cruise over to the nearby church to ride bikes and play on the playground equipment. Both the boys have a lot of fun. Cade has really gotten good on two wheels with his bike. He can start, stop, and ride on two wheels now. That doesn't leave much, but he needs to refine his skills a bit. Every now and again he still eats the pavement. :) Cale finally is big enough to ride the bike we bought him last year. He rode it for the first time this week and had a blast.

Tony Visits

So a lot has been going on. I've just been a little too busy to post.

My good friend and former locker partner, Tony, visited Dover for several days. He was in town for a wedding and stayed with us. The kids loved him and were very sad to see him go.

During his visit Cade was also in the Old Dover Days parade with his karate school. There he walked and participated in a demonstration in which he defended himself while someone attempted to steal his lunch bag. Look out! He's one tough cookie when wielding a lunch bag!

When Tony finally left the kids were upset. They really got attached while he was here. Next time we are hoping to get his entire family and our family together. Both Cade & Cale really wanted to play with his daughter Ashley again.
