We have been busy trying to fit in all the fun "summer" items that we haven't accomplished yet (before baby comes). This past weekend included a trip to Smithville Lake to visit the "beach" (I know, a pathetic attempt at a beach, but it's not too bad when you're 4 and 6 years old!), and another Royals game on Saturday night.
It sure was sunny out there on Saturday morning - the kids had so much fun!
Brian, being such a good sport - endured a mud fight and stayed in the water with the 2 of them the whole time. As for me, well, I stayed dry on a towel being covered by an umbrella. No icky lake water for this pregnant lady! :)
They had so much fun!
Maggie took a little break and hung out with me for a minute eating her peanut butter crackers.
Colin played hard right up until go-time, which at the end of the morning, consisted of laying and doing sand angels in the sand. Yeah, he had sand EVERYWHERE and we had a very crabby child when he realized he had to sit in that the whole way home. Bathtime was quite a mess!
Then we rested for a bit at home and went out to the Royals game after church.
It was really busy that game because Mike Sweeney was getting inducted into the Hall of Fame, but the kids still had a blast and we had lots of fun hitting up the outfield and doing some games.
Colin did awesome at the Little K!
Running the bases
We lucked out and got seats in the shade - it really wasn't all that hot out sitting in our seats
Colin called these empty cups his "armor" for the game
Maggie insisted on sitting on my lap and trying on my sunglasses (AKA - breaking my sunglasses)
But she looked so cute!
I can hear her laughing in this picture - Love this girl!
Oh, and Colin caught a T-shirt during one of the T-shirt toss giveaways! Brian had him held up high and the Blue Crew gal made an awesome throw right up to him. He was so proud of himself! Maggie was proud of her brother, too!
And one last attempt at getting a good family picture with the stadium behind us.
Clearly the sun was in everyone's eyes - but I just love how both of the kids are still trying so hard to smile (unsuccessfully, of course!)
Phew! Another fun weekend in the books.
