This is Rich and Mistys, July 2009 Summer. (Richs Version)
Misty took her dance studio to perform at Stadium of Fire over the 4th of July weekend. I on the other hand took the kids and went camping with my brothers and dad. It was an awesome experience to spend 3 full days camping, with the kids. Trevin was able to throw a line in fishing. I don't enjoy fishing, so Grandpa helped him, while I sat on my can and took a few pictures. Trev and Grayd enjoyed playing with all thier cousins up in the mountains.
The week after the 4th of July we went up to Yellowstone for 4 days. We met some friends up there. I think my favorite part of yellowstone is the Canyon area. Thier always seems to be wildlife in the area, and the waterfalls are amazing. Trevin loved to take our digital camera and take pictures. Remarkably most of the pictures he took turned out pretty good, including the one here with Misty and I.
The last week of July, I went on a baseball trip with my Brothers and two of my Brother in laws. Misty went with the kids to Washington State to visit with her mom. Misty Flew up to Seattle and then drove back with her mom. I on the other hand have been planning this baseball trip for over a year now. The 6 of us that went all have a love for the game of baseball. We went to the Rockies, Royals, Cardinals, Cubs, White Sox, and Brewers. We then finished off the trip playing a little ball and visiting the site of the Field of Dreams. I met the man that owns the property and he sat down with me and described the whole experience of the Field of Dreams. There were probably 100 people at the field when we got there, which is amazing to me. "if you build it they will come" And they still come to this day. The old man told me he gets visitors daily from The east coast, west coast, Europe. There were roughly 50 baseballs, and 5 bats there for us to use. I love the movie, so it was an awesome experience for us to be able to visit it.
I really like to get out and see different places, and I am lucky to have a wife that enjoys the same types of activities. Two awesome kids, and a beautiful wife, what more could a guy ask for?
