Elephants Rocks

On the way home we stopped at elephant rocks. It is fun! It's natural stones that are huge you can climb on. Keep in mind nobody had taken baths for 4 days. And the kiddos have their "camping" clothes on. Ha. Baron found the cut off shirt on another river trip. And loves for camping and can only wear for that. plus it was over 100 degrees out again.

Cabin

We went on a 5 mile kayak trip. My favorite day! Baron paddled ( navigated) the river the whole way by himself. I don't know if you can tell. But, Amelia is in his kayak. She rode the trip sitting in the back of his kayak. She loved it. The kids got quite the comments on the way down the river.

No sports

Yep you heard correct we have a week with no sports ( except Amelia's gymnastics). I'm not sure what to do with 5 nights not having to rush around.

Baseball is over. Basketball has a 2 week break while the coach prepares for a tournament in Chicago.

I guess it's the calm before the storm.

Next week baron is going to 3 nights of football camp. It's no pads and just drills. He is not going to play just do camp with a buddy. This mom worries about head injury!

Then in the fall Amelia has 2 nights of soccer and gymnastics. Baron has 2 nights of soccer and he most likely will be playing fall baseball another 2 nights. And that is 30 miles away. We are in the process to see if he can get on a 7u team. It's quite a process! And basketball practice. Not sure what I will do when I need to be in two places at once.

So I guess I am going to enjoy this week at home.

I have a ton to post from last week and hope to get to in soon

Like the fan Baron has?  No we did not buy that for him.  2 teamates had and it's safe to say they were a big hit!  Now
to find my kiddos one.  I guess they are sold out everywhere with the crazy heat. 
Baron out on the field with his coach and 2 other teamates! 
They are supposed to have the best hamburger in baseball. It was on Man VS Food. Nolan liked. It was a Krispy Kreme donut as the bun, with bacon, and cheese.

Gateway Grizzlie Game




Last night we took the kids to a minor league baseball game.  Baron's baseball team had an informal "Hot Rods night at the game".  Everyone had a blast.  Both kids got picked to get on the field.  And each "won" 4 tickets to another game.  Bummer, as the game they got tickets for we are out of town.  It was hot over 100.  So we sweat a lot.  It was a fun evening.  They had tons of stuff for kiddos.  And it was nice to go to an event where food was only a few bucks and parking was free!  I used my camera for the videos.  Not sure why as they ended up blurry and worse then my Iphone.
