Summer's over!

Rain, rain, rain!

It has rained a TON this week. I guess it saves on the water bill, but the kids wish they could enjoy the last couple of weeks before school starts. We went to a baseball game on Wednesday (the Everett Aquasox). It had been raining all day, but we decided to head out anyway. It was not raining at the ball field, so we went for it. The game was supposed to start at 7:05 pm, but at 7:10 they announced a new start time of 8:05. It didn't actually start until closer to 8:20.

There weren't too many people there, and Abby was enjoying the view from the top of the stands instead of at the bottom where we were. A foul ball was hit right by her and she was able to pick it up off the ground before anyone else got close. She's the luckiest one in the family! Jessica enjoyed cheering for the "Applesox".

We went school clothes shopping and spent lots, but they have enough (for now)!

Eric gave a talk in Primary today and did a great job. He held the picture in front of his face while he repeated the words I whispered to him.

I'm glad to hear your kids are enjoying some fresh air and getting a bath every once in a while! Keep up the good work and enjoy the quiet of the house for a while at least :)

P.S. My word verification word is "wetnopup". Where do they come up with these?
