Take Me Out to the Ball Game

This last week, we got to go to a Salt Lake Bee's Minor League Baseball game. They're not all fantastic or anything, at least this season, but we still had fun. Our bishop got the young men's group a bunch of boxed seat tickets. Luckily, we only have about four young men that regularly show up at activities (luckily? maybe not, but for us this once at least). I don't know that Deacon was particularly interested in what was going on down on the field, but his interested in the bars that were keeping him in the spot sure made it look like it for these pics.

Summer Activities

Later in July, our ward always has a primary children's parade around the neighborhood. It is a huge undertaking (thanks to Mindy) but we had a really good turnout this year and even got the police escort. The kids loved it and we decked out Deacon's stroller for the walk around the 'hood. We also had a play date at one of the local parks that has these cool water features. Probably will be more fun for him next year. Then a few weekends ago we had our ward camp out which was SO MUCH FUN!!! After trying to hold a squirming one year old we finally gave him, cause God made dirt and dirt don't hurt, right? Well, good, cause he was covered in it pretty much the whole time we were out there. Anyway, Deacon did awesome and loved playing with the other little kids from the ward. They loved playing hide and seek under all the picnic tables. Finally, some photos from James' birthday.
