We've been spending our Friday nights at the ball field enjoying Ryan while he plays TBall/Coaches Pitch. He is becoming a pretty good slugger and loves to run the bases. He slides every time and it is cute and comical. He's pretty serious, but wants to bat like the majors and is always imitating the Tiger players. This weekend Jake and Hailee and Tyler watched from the fence and cheered him on... Jake says, "hey Ryan...get ready for a sleepover!"

The Final Chapter!
We went to the Clinton Theater and caught the Shrek movie this weekend. It was cute. Ryan was scared. And tired. Before I even had the car in drive he had a meltdown for nearly 20 minutes resulting in a pulled over car and alot of slapping. I'm not proud...but when reason fails and there is no end to screaming in a car with a kid who refuses to settle down...what is one to do? I wish I had more patience. After a short nap, everything returned to normal. That is, a crazy and loud life....sans screaming.I started 2nd shift last night. I hated it and I am sitting here wondering if I can go back tonight. It's such a difficult decision. Sure would be nice to be at home for the summer before Ryan starts school:)
The guys are just about finished with the roof! Jim had to leave for work and Len worked on the roof until almost midnight. We'll all be glad when it's done. Then we can tackle one of the many other projects. It looks really nice...by the way:)

Ryan's Fishing Story
Ryan can now be called a proven fisherman. The other day he caught a small blue gil and was so proud. He is very patient. The next day, he was back on the dock trying again. Wow! He caught a huge blue gil. When I got out the tape measure we could hardly believe it was 11 inches. Great Job Ryan!
We've been spending some time doing a little swimming in the very chilly water. The boys have enjoyed feeding the catfish and tonight we were able to get our boat in the water and went for a spin. Tyler says, "Wee, that was fun Daddy." Time to give it some TLC as it is full of the smell of moth balls and dirty with the sight of mold:(
We're getting our new roof put on this weekend and hope to catch some fireworks or a Tiger baseball game. Also looking forward to a cookout. Any takers?
