We have been very busy! I thought after basketball season things would slow down...well not even close! Haylea turned 12 on April 3rd and has been busy with Long Course Swimming. Tate has had baseball 3 nights a week (unless it rained!) which it has done quite a bit lately! But all in all, we have stayed quite busy 6 nights/days of the week. We took a trip to Denver Memorial Day weekend for the Denver Zoo and 2 Rockies games. You will see some pics of the zoo and Haylea and her friend Janae at the Rockies games. Also, Tate brought his friend Blake and the 3 boys (Ty, Tate and Blake) are showing off their Rockies shirts! On Sunday, after the game...Haylea stubbed her toe on the walk back to the hotel...boy you would have thought her foot was cut off! There was a lot of blood, I do have to admit, it does hurt when you stub your toe and this was a pretty bad cut on her toe. Sorry about how the pics are laid out on here...I got tired of trying to move them around! I also participated in a triathlon in Missoula in April. Ty and I (and another friend Mike) ran in Peaks to Prairie and the picture of the trees with snow on them was in Red Lodge on the way up to the Beartooth Pass.
Tate is doing great in baseball. He plays a lot of 1st base and outfield. He is one of the best 1st baseman on the team. He gets on base over 50 % of the time and is having a lot of fun. His tournament starts in a week or so, we will keep you up to date on how that goes!
Haylea finished up her last days as an elementary student on Friday...Here are some pics of her and her friends at the awards assembly last Wednesday. Her music class also put on a "Top 40" music program a few weeks ago. It was really good.
I hope all is well and we love you all!
Love, Elkin's
BTW...I will be in Boise, ID Saturday June 12th 2pm start for 1/2 Ironman. www.ironman.com is where you can follow me if you would like...I hope to have a better race this year than last!
