Keeping Busy

We sure have been busy lately. We got back from our Wisconsin trip last Monday and Grandma and Grandma Hanner came to visit on Thursday. While they were here, we continued to stay busy. We spent some time at the beach on Lake Huron on Friday. The weather was perfect, the temps were just beginning to rise. On Saturday, Mike and Grandpa went to watch some PBA bowling while the girls went shopping. The kids also swam in the backyard and went in the sprinkler on Saturday. Summer has finally arrived in Detroit.





On Sunday, the seven of us went to the Detroit Tiger baseball game. The temperature was 90 degrees, way to hot for a baseball game. We arrived to the field as soon as the gates opened, it was Photos with Players day. Well, it was nearly impossible to get up close to any players, Megan did have her picture taken with Ryan Rayburn. The day was HOT, HOT, HOT! Luckily, my mom and myself were able to find some seats in the shade for about 4 innings which gave the twins some cool air to take a nap. (They both slept for close to an hour!!) After the game, which went into extra innings, the girls (and big boys) ran the bases. Everyone had a fun time but were exhausted from the heat!
