Weekend Wrap-Up

My boys have been looking forward to this week all year! Kent, Kael, Kase, Keith and Cindy went fishing in Canada and they had the best time and caught tons of huge fish.  Everyone got a trophy!

They get home later today so I'll hear all the stories then, but sounds like Kase caught the most fish and got the most trophies but Kael was the big winner this year with a 43 inch Northern!!! Couldn't be happier for all of them. 

While they were gone Kylee had her senior breakfast at Ashland Ridge- such a sweet tradition!

We also went out for dinner, caught a movie, and just had fun spending time together but she also nannied all day so I had lots of free time to get things done around the house! I also took Kael's girlfriend out for dinner one night and that waws super fun too.

Speaking of house, our new one is coming along so nicely!!!

Four trophies in one day! Don't worry, Grandma Cindy got hers the following day!

One morning I woke up and Kylee was out on the deck at 5:30 AM- she had made muffins and was out reading so this was a big surprise to me as she usually looooooves to sleep. Ha! She was so cute with her jammies inside out and wearing Kae's hoodie.

Hot chocolate (coffee) Kase is one of our favorite versions of Kase.

How pretty is this picture?! Kase out paddleboarding one night.

Kylee took a weekend trip to St. Louis to visit Carter.  They caught a Cardinals game and went to the zoo and sounds like they had a great weekend! Meanwhile I was at the lake with my family. Had such a nice, relaxing time! Thankful for my little weekend getaway too!

This is the one.  The big one. Kael was just so happy. What a huge fish!!!! I think Grandpa Dean would be proud of all the fishermen in his family.

Cute couple.  Kylee takes off for Europe tomorrow! And Kase hits the ground running with camps and all the things so I'm really thankful everyone had such a great first week of summer!

 

Weekend Wrap-Up

 Kael and Emma made it to the lake this weekend! They had the best time and we appreciated my parents hosting them!

Kase and his squad spent their first summer day at Advenureland!

Kylee and I had a garage sale- I'm so impressed with her planning it and doing all the work for it even as she was busy prepping to speak at commencement. And one of the days that she ran the garage sale she was also babysitting three kids under the age of five! Kylee is certainly driven and a very hard worker.

Putting the last few minutes of practice in before heading to commencement.

You guys, she KILLED it.  Not a single mistake. She spoke so clearly and calmly- I was just so very proud of her. 

Congrats, Kylee! You are so accomplished- just look at all those cords and awards around her neck! Thankful for all the family who came to see her.

We enjoyed a lovely family dinner out that night (besides Kase who had plans with friends) and went out for ice cream. Sunday my boys headed to Canada and this year Keith and Cindy are going along! So fun. Kylee spent her day after church going to allll the grad parties.  I had fun watching Berkley and Kellen play softball! Hooray for summer! 

Weekend Wrap-Up

Kylee's last day of school was Friday! So happy for her.  She's so ready for her next chapter. She has been filling her time with grad parties, tanning, picnics, pickleballing and playing sand volleyball. Honestly we hardly ever see her! She and her friends even took a late night visit to our new house a few nights ago.

These boys of summer are still playing ball.  Not our best season ever but Kase has gained a lot of confidence at the plate and is hitting well.

Besides baseball, Kase filled his weekend with fishing, two trips to the pool and a trip to Adventureland.  He's ready for summer!

Yesterday we spent our afternoon at a pool party with Kent's high school friends. Kase and his buddy Fletcher joined us at the end and Kylee had stopped by earlier too. Fun day!!
