These things they do

This weekend:  first baseball tournament of the season for Gabe and Keats, and first nine holes of golf for Larkspur (third for Seth.)

These things they do, they make me happy too.

    Oh, my. What a piss-poor lack of mound your boy has to pitch off.

    So busy & so fun! I often wonder what my husband & I will do with all our time once the seemingly endless weekends filled with soccer come to end someday…I’m thinking like 15 years from now…missing these days, I’m sure, is what we will be doing. 🙂

    Beautiful photos! It’s so true….there is so much happiness to be found through the things that our children do. I’m running to all the local fairs on the weekends so the children can show their animals. They work so hard and they get so much satisfaction in it….even when they don’t win. I love to watch them. It brings me happiness.

      It’s tickseed sunflower. Grows everywhere here! Especially roadside ditches and low lying areas.

    Looks like the weather was nice for outside activities. I took 2 year old DD to the playground both days. (sjn821 on Rav)
