Summer with my kids

It has been awhile since I have posted but we have had so many wonderful things happenning. So many that I have trouble even remembering all of them. But here are a few to catch you up:

Coach and I took my kids to a San Antonio Missions Baseball game. We had a wonderful time at the ball park. One of my kids caught a ball.
We saw two fans, at two different points in time, get hit with bats that the batter let go of after the swing. It was crazy hot...but we would do it again in a heart beat.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This last Saturday two of my kids spent their afternoon learning how to bake all sorts of goodies. Coach go the boys started and then let them take over the baking. We used them to sell on Sunday morning between services. The funds will go toward their camp fees. We are trying to get as many vision.youth kiddos to summer church camp as possible.
We raised enough so far to get four kids to camp, fully paid....with just one Sunday. We plan to do this for several more Sundays. The kids had a great time learning how to make baked goods. The two boys said that they were going to go home that night and make rice crispy treats for their parents. :)
Now we're cooking. Once Coach gave us alittle direction...we couldn't be stopped.
Everyone took turns icing cakes. We made 8 total...all different flavors.
We also made rice crispy treats, brownies, and various mini-loaf breads.
The boys cleaned everything up themselves.
All FINISHED!!!!!
