Ball Game

Last week we went to a minor baseball game and we had so much fun.  The weather was perfect the company was grand and the game was great.

We sat right in front of the visiting teams bull pen and I thought that was so neat.  We were able to watch the pitchers warm up and boy can they pitch!  After one pitcher finished his warm up he gave Rhino the ball who had a feeling that we would get a ball. That was very neat however 1 ball and 2 kids causes some hard feelings!  In the end though it all worked out this was the solution - one Princess ended up with the ball and the other got a magazine!  It was a winner and it worked!

Pool Time

We love a good pool on hot summer days..it is always such a great time...

The summer seems like it has flown by and before we know it school will be starting again...and visits to the pool will be a distant memory.

No Dumping Allowed...

The sign says it all!! But I "thinks" some people didn't read it....

Dragonfly

While going bike riding one morning Princess Belle noticed a dragonfly on her bike...it was so pretty.

The best thing was it stayed on her bike for a good block until it flew off.  How neat is that.  Pictures taken by the Princess herself.

Neighbourhood Watch

While visiting our friends  we got to explore their neighbourhood a little bit.  It was so nice every home was drool worthy for one reason or another.  Here are some pictures to show what I mean.

Look at how the brick has weathered to almost white..but they need to clean up the yard just a bit!

What curb appeal....

How cool would this be on your street....the old tracks for a cable car...

Sorry for the blur..could you imagine sitting in the room to the far right and just enjoying the view...

Finally if we were lucky enough to have a house here it would have to be on this street....

If this were my neighbourhood I would be out everyday walking and admiring these grand homes. The neighbours would also think I was a stalker because I would bring my camera too!  Seriously every time we passed another house I was like look at this one, see how great that it, how nice is that!

Baby Love

We had the wonderful opportunity to meet our friends newborn baby.  He is just a cutie and was a perfect baby while we were there. It was such a nice afternoon.  Just look at how cute he is....

And look how happy the proud parents are!

He was so tiny and cute and as your kids get older you forget that they were this small at one time too!  

Fore!

We had the opportunity to take the Princesses golfing...they got to use their new clubs so they were excited.  It has been years since I have golfed so I was a bit nervous.  We did a twilight special and for the longest time we were alone on the course.  It was awesome. Especially that no one was watching just in case I made a fool of myself.

Everything was going along just fine and everyone was making some good hits. We were all having a great time.  But some people were catching up to us so we decided we would skip a hole and put some distance between us.

Rhino wanted me to drive the cart up (Mom this is the part that you should skip over) to him and  because I have 2 Princesses that wanted to drive the cart I was leaning over to steer.  I did a quick turn and before I knew it I had lost one of my riders!  Miss Cinderella had been tossed from the cart and I am so embarrassed to admit this but I didn't even know!  Rhino was yelling at me so I quickly drove back to her - she was NOT hurt but perhaps a little stunned.  I felt so horrible and I still do however like my Mother when something happens I occasionally get the giggles.  Well I got the giggles - I know that is a totally inappropriate reaction but hey what can I do.  Honestly she is all good....see....

Again I was so glad the no one saw this swift move!
