"TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME...!"

On Sunday, May 29th Tim and I took the older kids to a TWINS GAME. We had a GREAT time! Here are a few highlights from our day. This is the sign we took, just in case Jim Thome would hit a home run to our section in left field. Sadly, he did not play that day, but we were ready! Note: Micah and Ben are holding their FREE Jim Thome pre-signed autographed bat handed out to the first 5000 kids 14 and under at the gate.

Ben is in line for free autographs from two Twins players - Jason Repko and Anthony Swarzak. We waited in line for about 45 min. but it was worth it to see them up close and get their autograph on the boys' gloves.

Micah waiting in line. He's ready to catch a ball!

Here they are enjoying their FREE Blue Bunny ice cream as we waited in line for the autographs.

As we stretched our legs in search of popcorn in the sixth inning, the boys hung on Mickey Mouse decked out in Twins gear.

After the game we took a parting family picture. Sadly, the Twins lost 5 to 6 .

One last thing to do before we leave was get in line for the boys to run the bases. See the crowd of people! Once the line started moving, it really did not take too long.

WE HOPE YOU ENJOYED A LITTLE "SNIPIT" OF OUR DAY AT TARGET FIELD! We strongly recommend you go to a game if you live in the great state of Minnesota.

Tim's GREAT Catch!

UPDATE!

It has been awhile since I've updated the blog. So I'll give you a recap of the last few weeks. First of all, Micah got a package of ants in the mail for his ANT HILL project the end of April (see below). We had studied ants during the winter months when it was too cold to receive an ant package. We we reviewed this study of how some insects work very hard. They are not lazy and God wants us to work hard like an ant. See Proverbs 6:6-9
These are the flowers Tim got me for Mother's day. Roses and purple flowers, my favorite! What a great guy. ;)
Here Micah received his certificate of Kindergarten completion. What a great year we have had! We do plan to continue our Bible memory through the summer and read LOTS of books as well as practice his reading/phonics. GREAT JOB, Micah!
This is the scene (see below) I came home to last Saturday morning while I was out at some garage sales. Tim had all three boys playing Monopoly and Hannah was taking her morning nap! At the time, Caleb was winning this game. The boys absolutely LOVED it! Not to mention, Tim was pretty pleased to bring out this game again. Gotta love "Dad days!"
Grandpa and Grandma Bailey were over for a supper last Saturday. Here are a bunch of Bailey boys chillin' together in the recliner while watching a tractor DVD. As Ben's shirt says, "I'm BIG on the farm" [or at least on the BAILEY HOMESTEAD]! Happy 61st Birthday TODAY Grandpa Bailey!

My BAILEY BOYS!

Here is a picture of Hannah today at 8 months of age. Where did the time go? She is the perfect addition to our family.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY THE BLOG FOR A VISIT. HOPE WE GOT YOU UP TO SPEED ON ALL THE HAPPENINGS AT THE "BAILEY HOMESTEAD!"

FOUR Years Old!

Happy Birthday to BEN our 4 year old! Here he is in front of his dinosaur cake. Ben, you are a joy and blessings. May the Lord bless and keep you dear boy.
