They went down for the day to visit Uncle David and Aunt Stephanie. They told me that they had a great time 🙂

Nice weekends at home with friends and family
We had a couple quiet summer weekends at home with friends and family. We watched Twins and Vikings games on the deck with friends, had family over for a couple of meals, took a trip to the mall, stained the deck and play set, and attended a family reunion.

Joey’s T-ball season comes to an end
This is a couple of weeks old but Joey had his last T-Ball game. I enjoyed watching my little bud play. Just like going to the Twins game a couple of weeks back, this is something a Dad dreams of for his boy.
Mixed in here are some pictures from an earlier game with Joey’s buddy Nathan.
Intimidating at the plate 🙂
Solid hit
Magic!
Magic Johnson was a guest speaker at our leadership conference and ended with a Q&A. After a few very good questions, I simply asked, “Magic, can I get a picture with you?” and he had no problem with it. It received a good laugh by the crowd and started a trend with the folks that asked subsequent questions 🙂
Another quiet cabin weekend
I am late to post this one as it was from last weekend but we had a great time going to the lake association party and the Joe’s and I planted our first GeoCache.
National Night Out 2011
We had a great time with friends and neighbors tonight. Carolyn did a great job setting up to host tonight’s event. Thanks to everyone for bringing some great eats and especially Jon for feeding everyone some wonderful steak! We even had a visit from McGruff the Crime Dog who was a hit with the kids.
We filled a good sized bucket for the food shelf which Carolyn will deliver soon!
