Almost August

It’s nearly August. Where did July go? It’s been a great month, but it has definitely gone by too quickly. As with June, we spent a lot of time at the baseball field. With Sebastian playing on three teams, when I wasn’t cheering him on, I was washing his baseball uniforms. We did take a break from baseball on the 4th of July and played a little golf (mini golf for Sophia and me) and went to Bayfront Festival Park to enjoy some music and fireworks.

After a very late night, we all slept in and then packed for a weekend at Tom and Karen’s cabin. We enjoyed a nice sunset, the local wildlife and some boating/tubing.

After a relaxing weekend, we headed home to get back to work and for more baseball!

Spring?

It doesn’t look much like spring around here, but we decided to venture out to the lakewalk to have some outdoor fun anyway. Sebastian received a longboard (skateboard) for Christmas and has had little opportunity to use it. We packed up the longboard and Sophia’s old scooter and headed out for some fresh air.

Along the way, we saw four deer grazing on small saplings along a hillside.

Here’s to warmer days ahead!

Amaryllis Revisited, Visitors, Big Red Mixer & The Course

The second set of flowers are now opening on my amaryllis. The first stalk had four flowers. The second has three. This poor amaryllis plant has been photographed way too much. To give the pictures a twist, I added a touch of Photoshop magic.

We had some visitors to our backyard recently. A couple of neighborhood deer stopped by to add to the destruction of our shrubs.

After I knocked on the glass of our dining room window, she turned to look at me. I guess the snow fell from the higher branches and landed right on her face. Poor thing (insert sarcasm here).

My recent purchase. Isn’t it beautiful? We christened it by making a batch of banana muffins. The were delicious.

Here is the new and improved sledding course. A whole new design for 2013. Sebastian has been working on it the past few evenings after our big snowstorm on Sunday (his Dad helped too). The extra nine inches of snow allowed him to bank up the sides and create a nice curve at the bottom.
