On days when we don't go to the pool-

(Ava)
Ty mostly stayed out of the way on this afternoon.  Too many girls.

Basketball Camp #2 {BMC}

We had TWO campers this year:
Believe me- Ty will not be left out next year. 
 I wouldn't want to deal with that.
 It was a small camp, but (for several reasons) JD was plenty satisfied with the numbers!  :)
 Snack time!
(Thanks, Fowlers, for providing the snacks and Gatorades!!)
 Back to work:
 Playing a little "Coach Says":
 Little man was in a goofy mood on the sideline:
 A little devo time:
 Coach and Little Coach:
 You're never too  young to learn a little ball handling:   :)
 I'm pretty positive that JD was going over what it means to "hold. the. ball." for the 10th time. 
Haha!
 A little Fowler Boys double team:  
 "Go TOPPERS!"

Basketball Camp #1 {RHS}



Although she looked clueless a little lost during the games, Halle's fundamental skills have drastically improved lately.  She is starting to look like she has some potential!  :)  And she loved camp!
 I'm not gonna lie- I may have trouble too, if I had to play a game wearing a dress:
 Halle's cheering section:
Ty and Cate kept yelling, "GET THE BALL, HALLE!!" and "STEAL THAT BALL!"
She didn't.
 So funny- the littlest girls all had their bags at the tippy-top of the arena:
 Accepting her certificate:
 "Go Tigers!"
{shudder}


 
Let me be frank:  I have an internal struggle with her t-shirt.  I MAY have been tempted to "lose" it in the laundry.  They could've put "RIPLEY" on it somewhere, at least.  I mean- the Bible says to avoid the appearance of evil...  "Lady Tiger Basketball Camp" (in black and gold) is cutting it awfully close.   
 
(Full Discloser: I am- and always will be- a Kansas Jayhawk fan.  I do- and always will- have a hatred struggle to find anything good about the Missouri Tigers. )


Halle's Princess {Sprinkler} Party

Waiting for the friends and hoping the rain would stay away:
The princesses-
Can you tell which ones they are?
Each girl picked her favorite:
The rain did not stay away, but that didn't stop the fun!  This is the only picture I got b/c I didn't want my camera wet- they did the slip n slide, the sprinkler, and water balloons!
The simple party food-
{Tiny, Heart} Sandwiches: PB & J, Nutella, and Banana Bread
Grape Wands
Veggie Tray
Strawberries & Dip
Pretzels & Hummus
Cake Time!

(Do you see Ty's knight?)
Presents!
(The only proof I got that Isaac was even there!):

Hooray for friends and fun!
Thanks, guys, for celebrating Halle's birthday with us!!




 *PS- I pulled off the "Disney Princess Party" that Halle hoped for without driving myself insane!  I am so proud of myself... :) Ha!    And Halle loved it = most important!

The perfect church for Isaac:

 Hahaha!!
We parked next to that van today when we went swimming.  :)

In other news-
 Ty's favorite thing right now (and always) is to go the gym with JD for workouts with Josh (BMC player):
 Halle is as fearless in the water as she was at the end of last summer- and we LOVE it!
 My lunch date decided that she only likes the veggie sandwich at Subway-
and the Doritos.  And the cookies.   :)
