This past weekend we went down to Oakland for our first A's game of the season. Being down at the Collesium, tailgaiting with friends before the game, and cheering the A's on to a 6-2 victory over the Tigers, made me feel soooo ready for summer! :) Hannah had a great time BBQing, relaxing in her camping chair, doing bubbles and drawing with chalk while we tailgated before the game. Once inside the game she got very excited when she saw the field, saying "baseball game! baseball game!" :) This is the first time we've gotten her her own seat and she loved it. The past two seasons she was way too little to really understand what was going on, but now she has a T-Ball set of her own and a baseball glove and loves to say "Goooo A's!" Her two favorite parts of the game were cracking open peanuts & eatting them and standing up with mom to dance and cheer everytime a run was scored. She kept asking, "Another hit so we can dance!?!" :)

We recently purchased a bike attachment at Costco so that we could go on family bike rides together. We took it out for it's first spin the weekend before last. Hannah loved that her baby dolls could go along with her on the bike ride. We rode over to Juice Shack for a smoothie and pretzel, then stopped by the park before heading home. It was such a great way to spend our Sunday afternoon...looking forward to many rides this summer!!

Now that summer is just around the corner, I am so anxious for it to start!! It's kind of bittersweet because I've had such an amazing group of kids this year and it's going to be hard to see them go. With summer approaching our calendar has begun to fill up! We just upgraded our tent (once again) to the newest model of the one we already had (love it!!). Because we own a boat, much of our summer is filled with day trips to the lake and week long camping trips. I love that owning a boat allows us to be on the lake whenever we'd like. Because Josh and I are both off during the summers, it allows us to travel a lot...have I mentioned how much I love summer?!?
Things we're looking forward to this summer:
Weekly game nights in the park with friends
swim lessons
Trip to Lake Tahoe....it feels like forever since we've been!!! Before Hannah, Josh and I used to go at least three times a year, we'd like to start creating memories with her there.
