Ryker was able to hit the ball for the first time this year in T-Ball. He now has his water proof cast on and Troy and I feel like it is stable enough to hit the ball. He was smiling from ear to ear. The doctor told him he can't play this year but we couldn't tell him no any longer. He has been so good to just stand in the outfield and watch the other kids have fun. Now its his turn. I just hope the X-Rays don't tell on us.
We are looking forward to the family reunion this next week. I think we will have all six kids with us this time.

Fathers day was fun. We had the family over for ribs. Troy is really enjoying cooking for the family with his B-B-Q.
Jordan is in Baltimore and I am so scared. He has never been by himself so far away from home. He did call today and everyone was laughing in the background. I think I am just more worried about him catching all of his connecting flights on the way home.
Rykers arm is getting better. When they took the splint off the bone is sticking out the side of his arm. They just keep telling me that it will deteriorate on its own and line up. I just hope everything turns out. I really don't like the look of it. It reminds me of a tree branch with limbs going everywhere.
Kenzie is going to girls camp this week and is so excited. She is going to Washington after the Fourth of July and is very happy to spend time with her cousins. We are so excited to see everyone at Priest Lake.

we have good news on Ryker's arm today.. It is starting grow. We still cant get a cast on for two more weeks. It is still too fragile to take the splint off. Good news. We didn't want surgery.
