Oh, what do you do in the Summertime, when all the world is green?
Do you fish in a stream or lazily dream on the banks as the clouds go by?
Is that what you do? So do I!
We like to go to the Astros Games during the summertime. This weekend the Astros played the Yankees for the first time during a regular season. Back in the spring, you had to enter your name in for a chance to buy tickets to one of these games this weekend. Our name was drawn and we purchased the 4 tickets that were allowed. Madelyn stayed at a neighbors since we only had 4 tickets. We were not going to be getting home until late so Chanelle said Madelyn could stay the night. She lasted until 5 am. Chanelle called at five and said Madelyn was awake and ready to come home. It's great to have such wonderful neighbors.
It was fun to see the Yankees and Mayor Rudy Giuliani throw out the first pitch.
We also enjoyed the fireworks. Great night had by all...even though the Astros lost. Garrett, our kid that remembers everything, said we are bad luck...out of the ten games we have attended the Astros have lost everytime!
Another fun activity this weekend was going to a local orchard where you can pick your own berries.
Berry pickin is always better with friends...
and Mom...
We came home with blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, tomatoes and zucchini. I'm sure we'll be back because we're almost out and the boys said the berries were soooo much better than the ones from the store.

Maybe we are bad luck, too, since the the Cubs lost both games we watched them play. I totally remember going with my mom to a cherry orchard & picking cherries. It was so fun & they were so yummy. My gas wasn't so sweet afterwards, but it didn't stop me from eating those handpicked cherries!
