Lane's Field Trip and Another Season of Baseball

This is Lane's last week of school!  I am excited for him to be home for the summer.  His class went on a field trip last week to Mill Bay to explore the tide pools.  Estelle and I went just for a bit to check on him and Lane was loving it.  I found him and he said hi mom and took off again with his buddy.  They found all sorts of creatures!
 Giant Barnacles, maybe the biggest I've ever seen.
 Estelle loved exploring and being with all the big kids.  She had a purse full of rocks by the time we got home.
 They found lots of sea stars, fish, hermit crabs and some kind of weird giant millipede type bug, they were calling them aphids.
 Lane and our neighbor boy who he has become good friends with.  I am so thankful that Lane is really enjoying school here in Kodiak.  This is the first time he changed schools and I am so happy that it was an easy transition, an answer to prayers!
 Lane started baseball one month ago.  Last week was his first game.  I love watching his intensity and love of sports.  Kodiak is a little behind Coronado Little League :)  I love it, it is refreshing not to have the coaches and parents take 7 and 8 year old baseball so seriously!  But Lane is really good as a result of playing the last 3 years in Coronado.  He has had two games, he hit one home run the first game and two the second game.  Go Lane!  But my favorite part about watching him play is his great attitude and sportsmanship toward the other teams and his teammates!  He is such a good boy :)
Always in the ready position!

Your kiddos are so cute! I love Estelle's hair. I'm happy for you that the transition for Lane has gone well for him.
