Sox Game

Jason loves to tailgate and to go to the ballgame, so he organizes outings for his co-workers. Ryan stayed home with Grandma/pa, so I got to go too. It was a small gathering, but fun anyway.

We played bags...I'm pretty sure I won, but Steve insisted that my points were cancelled by his??....

Steve eating his first Katydid...yummm!

Jason made corn on the grill. That was good too.

PSAPers at the game.

It was a beautiful night!

Mom's turn!

Mom & Ryan picked the buussiest day of the year to go to Splash Country (aka the 'wada pauk').

It hasn't been a great summer for swimming, but on the recent 90 degree day we had, everyone else went too. Oh well, Ryan loved it. I was surprised at how brave he was. He started in the zero depth area and walked out until the water was as deep as his mouth. No fear. He'll be swimming like a fish soon.

I didn't take any pictures near the water, but here's Ryan chilling on his 'mic-ee tou' (mickey towel). He looks cold here, but it was really hot!

More fun from Dad's days off

The Murr schedule continued and the boys went to Blackberry Farm while Mom went to work. (poor mom, once again!)

The Pioneer Village train. Ryan loved it! He and Dad rode 5 times. Ryan now says "ALLLLL ABOOOOOARD" every time we mention choo-choos or trains. He loves to drive over the train tracks by our house and look to see if a train is coming.




There was a donkey and other creates to meet!

Bears Training Camp

Now that Ryan has mastered saying 'base-bal,' it's time for him to learn FOOT-BALL. Jason took advantage of the Murr Schedule (the term his co-workers use to describe his ability to always have time off) and took Ryan to Bears training camp. They had activities for kids, but Ryan wasn't quite sure about that stuff.
Later Mom got to join in the fun and we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Yummm!

Our new yard boy

I got tired of mowing the lawn, so we got a yard boy. He's very attentive - takes his mower everywhere! And he uses a new bubble-solution fertilizer. The yard looks great!

Family Photo Shoot

Ryan's 2 year pictures and a family picture too. I was happy with how they turned out because Mr. Ryan wasn't completely cooperative. Apparently that goes away by the 3rd birthday?
