42nd Birthday Around the Corner

Well, my 42nd birthday is just around the corner and I have learned that they mean less each year. I'm not sure why they mean less but they do.

I guess the focus is changing now that I have a baby girl. Or, it is something else.

We will be kicking back on the deck with my parents while enjoying a great dinner.

Point Mallard Water Park

Fun at Point Mallard Water ParkWe went to Point Mallard today and we had a great time in the wave pool and water works for children. The water in the wave pool was cold, but you got use to it after awhile. As you can see in the picture, Katie Beth was having fun.

She enjoyed the river, too. The idea of water, sand, and sticks were like heaven to her. We had to pick her up just to get her to go for lunch.

The water works area was enjoyable, but the equipment needs to worked on to improve it.

Double Header Tonight with Huntsville Stars

Karen, Katie Beth, and I are heading to the double header game between the Huntsville Stars and Chattanooga Lookouts. This game is the first of the series and the first match since the brawl that emptied the benches in Chattanooga during the teams last match up.

Hope, Hannah, & Charlie Joined Us @ Baseball Game

Hope, Hannah, and Charlie joined Karen, Katie Beth, and me at the Huntsville Stars’ last baseball game in this series with the Mississippi Braves. The Huntsville Stars won, which was great.

Hannah and Charlie joined in the running of the dogs, which means they joined all the other children that run through the outfield at the break between the 5th and 6th innings. Katie Beth wanted to join them, but she couldn’t keep up with the run.

We all had a great time.

12th Anniversary

12th AnniversaryKaren and I celebrated our 12th anniversary. It has been a fun ride this far. I can’t wait to see where it goes from here.

We had a relaxing celebration again this year. Hopefully, I will be able to pickup the tempo in the coming years.

We played at Sherwood Park Pool with Katie Beth and her cousins Hannah and Charlie. For dinner, we enjoyed a wonderful meal at Bandito Burrito of Madison.
