#4 - 35 weeks!

#1 - Jason went golfing in Medora at Bully Pulpit, Ray at the Links of ND and Bismarck at Hawk Tree, the last weekend of June.  He went with a friend from Lisbon, his friend and my friend Meg's husband Drew.  They left early Friday morning and got back on Sunday evening.  Jason said they had a great time, the courses were unbelievable and that they put on A LOT of miles!  He didn't know if they would do the 3 courses again all in the same week because of all the miles but he told me he wants me to come with him next time to Medora and golf Bully Pulpit, for sure!  Maybe next summer!  Meg came and picked Drew up on Sunday night and the kids played for a little bit and then we decided to settle them down and get them in the tub.  I may be biased, but they are some pretty cute kids!  And they just adore each other!  So fun!
#2 - Hayden has been going to Tball practice.  A couple moms in Lisbon decided to start a Pre-Tball program for 3yrs-Kindergarten.   It is 4 Thursdays for an hour each time.  He LOVES it!  We have one more session tomorrow.  They had their team pictures last week and it was pretty cute watching these little kids.
#3 - It was a GREAT 4th of July weekend at the lake.  We left Thursday night after Hayden's Tball practice.  It was a SUPER hot day and when we got to the lake at 9pm it was still 82 degrees.  Hayden went right down to the lake and asked to get his swimming trunks on.  I didn't blame him, but we had to tell him no since it was so late already.
Friday, I ran some errands in Detroit Lakes and went to check out their dollar store!  Wow, the things I could have spent money on! :)  But, I did find the best purchase of the weekend, maybe the summer!  Water shooter things.  For a buck each, it kept the kids and adults entertained all weekend long, as you can clearly see!  There were a number of water fights throughout the weekend.  We were also able to meet up with uncle Jeremy and aunt Heather in Detroit Lakes for pizza and nachos at Zorbaz.  They were at their lake for the weekend so it was fun to catch up with them.  That evening the rest of my family arrived at the lake.
We spent the weekend laying in the lake, fishing, campfires, eating lots of s'mores, watching fireworks from the beach, playing in the sand, napping and making lots of fun memories.  We came home on Tuesday morning tired and ready for some structure.
#4 - We are in the home stretch!!! About 5 weeks left until baby Enger arrives!  I am getting VERY anxious!  I had an appointment today and everything looks good.  I go back in 2 weeks and after that it will be every week.  I've started pulling things out of the closet from when Hayden was a newborn and started shopping for some necessities.  I told Jason we are going to be ready by August 1st just in case this baby decides to come on it's own and fast like it's big brother!
