June 21, 2015 - On the Pontoon

Eric, Bridget, Martin and Ellie are in town for Youth Camp at ILC.  We haven't seen them for awhile so it was nice to have a little time with them out at Dad and Eunice's before camp started.  It was a beautiful summer day so we had to take the opportunity to get out on the pontoon and do some fishing also. 

June 20, 2015 - Baseball and a Surprise Party

Today was a pretty eventful day.  We had 3 baseball tournaments and a surprise 70th birthday party for Dan's parents.  I went to Mauston with Noah, Dan went with Ethan to Merrill and Grandpa and Grandma Albrecht took Bryce to his tournament in New Richmond.  After the games were done, we all headed over to Steve and Kelly's for a surprise party for Jim and Beth.  Dan was there for the surprise, and they were surprised.  The rest of us got there when we could and had a great time celebrating!  Lots of family pictures were taken and it wasn't always easy to get everyone looking at the camera and smiling at the same time but we did our best.  And someone got a little "crazy" with the bat, what can I say, it was a long day of baseball before the party :)

 

 

June 19, 2015 - Ankle Exercises

Ever since I hurt my ankle in January, I haven't been very good about doing my exercises to strengthen it again.  I'm trying to do better and Dan is right there to help me.  I need to be made to do things sometimes, good thing I have people in my life who are willing to push me.

June 18, 2015 - Noah's New Bat

Noah has been trying to decide what to put his Confirmation money towards.  He's wanted his own bat for awhile now and decided that would be one thing that he would purchase.  So he did some shopping in stores and online, talked to a few teammates about their bats and decided on this Macko that he bought online.  Well, it came today and he's pretty excited to have it.  Now to get out and hit some homeruns!

June 17, 2015 - At the Lake

We spent the afternoon at the lake again.  The boys swam and had fun and Karen and I even jumped in.  This time the water was a bit warmer.

 

June 16, 2015 - Corn!

The corn is starting to come up in the garden!  If you couldn't tell, we're kind of excited!

June 15, 2015 - Checking Out Scott's New Place

Scott is back in town.  He sold his house and bought a camper that's parked at Duncan Creek in Chippewa Falls.  He plans to live there until it gets too cold to live in a camper and then on to the next adventure.  We hadn't seen his place yet so we headed out there tonight.  It's a real nice place on a nice spot.  We stayed and visited for awhile and of course goofed around.  It's going to be nice having him close again.
