Here’s a peek into what we’ve been up to in June.

Watch out world, there’s a new REF in town.
We are so proud of George and how hard he worked to become a soccer referee.
- He watched about 8 hours of ref instruction online,
- went to a four-hour class,
- a two-hour training, and
- took an intense referee test, and …
Earned his official “Ref” status!
He was super nervous about reffing his first game – but Ted went to observe and said he did awesome. He’s reffed a bunch a games in June, and becoming better and more confident with each one.
George even got to ref one of Paul’s soccer games, which was super fun for all of us.

Paul finished his spring soccer season in June. He played with a great group of boys and their team was UNDEFEATED all season.

Luke and Clark are in baseball. It’s been fun spending summer nights at the baseball field watching them play. Clark made the All-Star baseball team and crushed it! He hit the ball every time he was up to bat, had several RBI’s, pitched, and started the game playing third base (which was his dad’s position).

Field Trips Fridays
Field Trip 1: The Minnesota History Center
I joined the Minnesota Historical Society so that our family could visit a few unique places in our state. Our first stop was the Minnesota History center in St. Paul. It was a fantastic museum with hands-on exhibits to teach kids (and adults) about Minnesota’s History. George loved the WW2 airplane experience. Clark liked making sundaes at the soda shop. Paul and Luke loved the tornado experience. I enjoyed exploring this new place with my boys.

Field Trip #2 – Fort Snelling
Our next field trip (with our Minnesota History passes) was to Fort Snelling. This place had been on my list for awhile, and I’m so glad we finally made it happen. It was beautiful and so interesting to get to experience what an army base would have looked and felt like 200 years ago.

Field trip #3 – Tactical Urban Combat
The family that battles together, stays together.
Our family was gifted passes to Tactical Urban Combat in exchange for a blog post. We had a so much fun choosing a nerf gun and battling it out with another group. Clark helped us win ‘capture the flag.’

We celebrated Father’s Day for one FINE dad!
I’m thankful that our boys are following in the footsteps of someone so kind, wise, strong, faithful and full of integrity.

An Egly Boy Sleeps away
In June we sent the first #eglyboy to Lake Geneva Campground with a bunch of other kids from our church. He loved it!
