Maddox at the Art Gallery

Maddox, Daddy and Grandpa went to the art gallery today. Mike told me that he was exposing the little man to the finer things in life. So, here is a shot of the piece that Maddox appreciate the most:

We like to entitle it "Ninny" because evidently that is what he was shouting when he saw it. :)

First Softball Game

The girls played coach pitch this summer for the first time ever. Mike volunteered to coach the girls known as "Girl Power". These are pics from the very first game. They had lots of support from Angie and the girls, Grandma and Grandpa and of course mommy and Mad Man. I had a hard time not being the loud mom yelling at her kid. Maiki was typical Maiki and got bored pretty quickly in the outfield. She was often seen drawing in the sand instead of paying attention!

Worlds of Fun!

The girls got to go to Worlds of Fun with the Baldwin Rec Center camp this summer. It was their first "grown up" trip. Of course, Mike went with them, so I didn't worry too much. :)

These are the four little green girls he got to tote around all day.


This was Makena's favorite ride, the Viking Voyager. Also one of my favorites from childhood. Even smells the same. That's probably not a good thing.



Aren't they sweet, pretending to like each other!
