Unofficially Summer

Hey it's June...how'd that happen so fast? Wasn't it winter yesterday? This is our first week of summer vacation for the girls and Chris. We're lovin' it! I have said our schedule is crazy but really it's rather normal. We are a family of 5 active people. Couch potatoes have boring lives, we're certainly on the go.

Emma and Reagan are really enjoying softball. Emma's team seems to be a little behind the rest of the 4th grade teams. Apparently most of them have played together for several years. That certainly makes a difference. Cousin Kelly helped Emma with some pitching lessons...I think we'll be going back for more. After just one lesson we saw tremendous improvement. Both Emma and Reagan do a great job at 1st base. G'pa Ray.be would be so proud!

Reagan is still our little switch hitter. Her left swing is actually better than the right. That makes Papa so proud...being a lefty himself. It does frustrate Reagan that all the kids get to hit and run around the base each inning, she can't tell who is winning. ha My very competitive child is frustrated without a score.

With 4 games a week little Liv has figured out the ins and outs of life at the softball fields. Luckily there is a fun little playground which Olivia always seems to rope someone into taking her to. Even though she "never" throws sand, she comes home with a head full of it. Those little invisible elves must be the evil doers.

Soccer ended Saturday with another amazing game played by the Comets! Reagan had 2 goals and played some great defensive. Dance is coming to an end as well. Tonight is dress rehearsal and Saturday at 1:15 Emma will be dipped in a vat of Mary Kay before going out on stage to dance her 3 numbers. I can't wait to get some good pictures to share with all of you blog readers.

The Warren Ray.bee reunion festivities begin Sunday afternoon. Sounds like rain, we're all praying for sunshine, imagine 3 days in cabins with 28 loud relatives. :) Oh, we'll have a great time no matter what the weather will bring.

As soon as I get my camera charged I'll have pictures to share. Enjoy this beautiful weather...unless you are reading this in Arizona, it's too hot there to call beautiful. Wherever you are, know you are blessed. If you have food, a roof and obviously you have an internet connection you have more than most of the world. Next time I complain about my missing leather couch remind me of that very statement. :)

Love to you all!
