These are the days of our lives…

We played and watched baseball from 5 pm on Friday til 5 pm on Sunday!

Daddy coached baseball.

Luke watched baseball intensely…hardly taking his eyes off the games for a snack.

Mom and the little three…watched baseball when we were not having snacks, visiting with our friends, having snacks, taking bathroom breaks, having snacks, drinking Gatorade, having snacks, fighting over playing with the toys we brought, having snacks, fighting over playing with the toys our friends brought, having snacks and so on!

And here we go into next week where I think we will play and watch a little more baseball!!!

Orange Zebra toenails please!

 

 

The girls (and Mark) had to take a little break from the baseball tourney to pamper their toes!

Brynn went first, sat like an angel and is very happy with the results of her first spa outing!

Purple flower toenails please!

Big surprise…Jayne picked purple for her toenails!   

Watch them carefully, reminding them every 5 seconds that you want a purple flower on your toes!

 

Watch them VERY carefully...”Purple flower” “Purple flower”!!

 

Show extreme satisfaction with your Purple Flower!!

Repeat process every 6 weeks!

Backyard Bash

Mark invited 5 friends and their siblings to our backyard for 6 water activities!

Sophie (and her brothers Jacob and Charlie), Annie (and her sister Cate and brother Owen), Trey (and his sister Jorie), Eric (and his brothers Lucas and Carl) and Bryce (and his brother Blake)!

The party was set for 2:00-3:30 pm…the only dry part of the day was from 2:00-3:20 pm!!

Sigh of relief because we had no back up plan for the big day,

and clearly this party was too wild to move inside!

Game #1 Water balloon toss-

The winning toss—Champs, Champs! (Luke and Bryce)      

  

    Do I spy a future arranged marriage between the Yokom girls and the DeBoer boys?

 

   The big bros seem nervous about this idea!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Game #2 Limbo (water hose style)-

Game #3 Water balloon relay-

Carry the water balloon under a cone as you run to the chair to sit on the water balloon until it breaks!
