I finally got time to post the reservoir pics....

Last weekend the boys were very excited to go to the reservoir to play in the water. When we left home at about 11 am it was nice & warm pretty sunny. The farther west we got the more the cloud cover. We even hit a few sprinkles on the way. The weather was not in our favor it got kinda windy. The kids only got to play on the bank cause it was very cold water and with the wind they couldn't stay warm. Oh did I mention we were only going for the day so we only came prepared for sunny weather! Jeff & I got to visit with our friends and watch the kids play. Our kids love to play with Isaiah, they can make anything fun. We told Brandon that we'd see about going again when the weather is better. This weekend won't work cause it has been raining since yesterday morning. We are glad cause we need the water but boy it takes away the outside fun. Jeff was suppose to go play paintball today, needless to say they have to reschedule. Maybe if they wait a week or two my toe will be better enough to go too! :)

An attempt at Tennis......

Jeff decided that he & Brandon need to get up and get moving. His solution was tennis. We have a couple parks close that have courts. So we went out a found some beginner racquets. Then headed out to the park. I make a small attempt but with the broken toe I really can't move real quick or a lot yet. I got some serving in that was enough of a challenge. Enjoy the few pictures I took of them playing. We will be pretty busy the next couple weeks. We have plan to go play at the reservoir this Saturday. Then Brandon starts his new school the 13th. It is sad that his summer is coming to a close. But part of me is very ready to have some quiet back in my day....
