First timers!

 We went to an end-of-the-year baseball party.  Charlie and Claire got to go tubing for the first time. They both loved it!

Here are some favorites...

State Fair Food Parade

 The great MN get together was pretty different this year thanks to COVID.  We stayed in the car and drove through the fairground and stopped at some different food vendors.  Glad we got to do something but hopefully things are back to normal next year.

Camper

 The weather was PERFECT!  Annual family picture (away from the hornet nest), lots of relaxing, countless wheeler rides, plum picking and some BB gun hunting.

Life lessons from YOUTUBE

 Charlie stumbled upon a video on how to make eggs and decided he HAD to try it.  It involved freezing eggs, peeling, slicing and then frying them up.  They were pretty good!

Last Game

 Charlie definitely had fun playing his first season of traveling baseball!  It was fun to watch the team get better each week.

Charlie finished the year with 18 strikeouts when he was pitching.  Not too bad!  He said he liked playing shortstop and 2nd base the best.

Soaking in the Last Days

 We're close to being back in the school grind so we're trying to enjoy our last days.

First Tournament

Charlie played 3 games in 2 days and Claire finally got the park she was hoping for all season.  It was a good one!

Summer Days

We've been keeping busy even though I thought things would be much quieter due to the pandemic.
