The Kubesch Family

Yesterday morning, we went to Frobergs Farm in Alvin. We have previously taken the kids because they enjoy shopping at the Farmer's Market, but right now they have a small pumpkin patch and a hayride around the farm. Conner and Caroline enjoyed learning about the farm, and of course, loved the hayride.

Yesterday, we took Conner and Caroline to the Balloonar Liftoff Festival at Johnson Space Center. We had originally planned to go later in the evening to watch the balloon liftoff, but we ended up being so close to the area at lunch time we decided to just go then. As a result, we did not see the hot air balloons, but we saw lots of other neat things: snakes, birds, emergency vehicles, hobby rocket launces, parachuters, hangliders, and remote controlled acrobatic planes. Since it was a festival, we also had some carnival fun. The kids absolutely loved it and next year we will have to go back to see the hot air balloons liftoff.

Caroline has been going to ballet class at school for the last few months, but Monday mornings are always crazy and I forget to take a picture. Finally remembered this week.

Since I have been put on very restricted activity by my doctor, I don't have many pictures to share. Wes has been taking the kids places, but does not take the camera with him. Conner did start T-ball two weeks ago and has played three games so far. He does not know anyone on his team, but is having lots of fun. This year his team name is the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Getting a little coaching from Daddy.

Action shot!

Looks like he is posing for me, but he is really waiting for the coach to tell him it is okay to hit the ball.

Conner played pitcher this inning and is throwing to 1st base.

Successfully stopped the ball.

Throwing to first again.

Heading home.
