Storm

So we are having a major storm here tonight with Tornado Warnings and all. To prove how smart we are (not), we went outside with cameras in hand trying to catch a lightening strike. Jared caught a bunch on camera, me...I caught one going across the sky. Must be old age creeping in!

Playing at Ft. Ben

We went and played at Ft. Ben tonight to put an end to the day. The kids had fun taking Lizzy for a ride down the slide, playing on the swings, skateboarding and watching the clouds roll in.

Hiking at Ft. Ben

We went on a little hike at Ft Ben and tried to identify some of the foliage. Some of it was real easy 'cause they had a sign for us to read (haha). The one we liked the most is the Liriodendron tulipifera - Tulip Tree - the Indiana State Tree. The kids collected 'flowers' for us along the way and we made a little bouquet out of them.

Picnic Day at Soccer

Every year the soccer league puts on a picnic for all the soccer players. They had a couple of bounce houses, face painting, tattoos, free Hot Dogs, drinks and cookies. The kids had a blast.

Jared's Soccer Game

Jared played really well today. He made 2 goals, one of them being a winning goal - GO Jared! He's got 2 more games to play and then it's on to summer fun.
