Family reunion June 2010

We had a wonderful time at the Pawlik Family Reunion in June in Texas. It was awesome because my Grandma Blair was staying with my Aunt Nancy and they drove over for a quick visit. The kids all loved the beach - George loved digging in the sand the most, Henry loved it all and Emily took up my spot on the volleyball court. It was nice to get away and to see all of the Pawliks again. Always a great time!!

just some recent pictures

We recently went camping for two nights. It was so much fun and the kids had a blast. Emily caught the largest fish and probably the most too. We all caught something so it was great in that aspect. Everyone is doing great!

Videos of the kids

Emily had her first softball game last Saturday. It was a pretty day and we enjoyed being outside. She makes good contact and as soon as she gains her confidence she is going to be awesome!



This is from a little further out but it is Emily and she had a good hit, they were just good at handling the ball too :-)




This one is Henry enjoying his new toy. He only gets to play with it when George is away or asleep as George thinks everything is "his" or that he needs to show Henry how it works.




He calls it hockey - I call it sweeping :-)

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Even though his birthday was in February his gift just came in today, here he is sporting his "Stand-up paddle board". Since there is blizzard like snow outside, Drew just had to try it out (pretty certain he would have tried it in the lake if it were just a bit warmer).

Happy Easter!

We went to brunch with the Haveron's - Anne, Kevin, Sam, Finley and Declan - at the Holiday Inn and walked to the carousel and park afterward. Lots of fun and the kids were all wiped out (good for the parents). Here are a few pictures of our fun.

The day before Easter.....

With Emily flying out early Saturday morning to go to DC on a school trip, we decided to spend the weekend in Missoula. They have a family friendly hotel with a water slide in the pool area. After taking Emily to the airport and eating breakfast we went to the Elk Foundation and then to the Easter Egg Hunt at the University of Montana. As you can see from the video, it wasn't much of a hunt but you had to be pretty quick to get some eggs as children showed up in masses! The 0-2 group was the one we were in and the boys did really well. At the strike of 0ne on the clock tower the kids were off and according to the paper at 1:05 there was nothing left on the ground :-). Henry cared more for the basket grass than the eggs or candy and George had his sights set on a mini football. It was a complete success for both! After a nap Sam came over and they hit the water slide (somehow I forgot my suit). Everyone had a great time and when Anne came back to pick up Sam she had to pull them out of the pool.

Fun at Currents

Today we had to get out of the house because of some electrical work being done so we ventured over to Missoula to a place called Currents. It is an indoor water park and we had a great time. Joni, Karen and Lily were with us - here is some of the fun....
