Soft Toss Ball, Gymnastics and Remodeling!

Our summer has officially kicked off!  We ended school for the summer on a Friday and our summer activities began on the next Monday.  Carson is in parent-pitched soft toss ball and he plays every Monday and Wednesday.  Payton started gymnastics which is every Thursday.  Adding to that, Mike and I golf on Wednesdays / Thursdays as well! 

Carson's first game was really cute.  He did pretty well hitting and fielding and we were pretty proud of him.  His second game was on Wed.  Mike took him since I golf on Wednesdays.  It is nice this year b/c Monday night games are in Jackson but Wed night games are here in Lakefield. 

Thursday Mike's golf match was cancelled due to rain so he stayed with the boys and I took Payton to gymnastics.  I actually met a really good friend a few years ago b/c we both were waiting for our daughters while they were in gymnastics.  She and I got to catch up and I got to see her cutie patootie little ones.  She has a little boy that is about a month older than Aidan.  He is up and walking and a hoot to watch!

Payton had her first gymnastics camp on Friday from 3-6 and Saturday from 9-12.  She had a lot of fun but was REALLY worn out after!

Mike and I have decided to remodel our 2nd bathroom.  We have never really used it much b/c it always had the washer and dryer in there and it was really small.  When we got our new washer and dryer we moved them downstairs so it freed up  a lot of room in the spare bathroom.  Our friends Nicole and Jay spent their weekend with us and the boys gutted the whole bathroom and started the remodel.  Nicole and I were in charge of paint (except the high stuff!), curtains, and towels.  It was fun shopping for the colors and stuff to go in their.  Unfortunately we had to order the vanity and new  mirror so that won't go in until this Friday.  We did get the new toiled, flooring and lighting in.  All the paint is done.  We also need to install the window. 

We are so glad that the hardest parts are over and never could have done it w/out friends!

Carson's ball game was cancelled tonight due to rain so we are having a very low-key evening here at home.  Aidan has been kind of cranky (as cranky as he gets anyway) and I am guessing it is due to teething.  His little gums are so swollen and red.  He has no appetite, awful diapers and isn't sleeping well.  All things that are NOT normal for him!

We are planning a big backyard luau for his 1st birthday and we are in the process of getting all things we need for that.  It is going to be fun and I can't wait to see it after it is all decorated!

Well, that is our updates for now.  Here are some pictures of the past week.  Enjoy!!

Hey batter, batter, batter!!
