Happy Monday!

Our church won the mid-season church league tourny yesterday! I'm totally blown away at how well everyone played...especially the young kids. Now, we won our first game, but haven't won one since, so being undefeated in this tourny is both surprising and much-needed inspiration. We all had so much fun! It was VERY windy (which may have helped us, actually). I love seeing the young kids play. Church league crosses age, size, and societal boarders and is so awesome to watch!
Also, I was thinking last night about how perfect it is to watch Barry and Tony play ball together. They've hunted, fished and golfed together...softball is, I think, the last shared passion to be bridged. Very fun to watch...and to listen to them rehash the game afterwards! :)



Saturday we ventured a bit up north to Long and Sand lakes. It turned out to be a very windy day, so fishing wasn't great. Erin caught the only fish! She's certainly giving Daddy a run for his money on being the family "fisherman"! We did spend a couple of hours at the county park on Long Lake...the kids enjoyed their beach time a lot.
Overall, it was a great summer day. Exhausting, but lots of fun!

Today is the first day of VBS. Technically, that would make it my one and only week of vacation (without kids). :) I may have to take a couple of days off of work, too, just to double my enjoyment! We sang camp songs at church yesterday to kick off VBS week. It was awesome! And a reminder that some day I need to start on my dream of learning to play praise guitar.

Have a great week!
