Mike Zip Lining

Go Mike! For a guy who says he may be slightly afraid of heights, he did a fabulous job!!! Not once was he concerned about flying 190 feet above the ground and he even enjoyed looking down into the canyon! What an anniversary!

Happy 10th Anniversary!

Mike and I thought we would celebrate BIG for our 10th, and we decided to go zip lining in Wimberley, TX. Great fun. Look carefully at the world events written on the locker door at the zip lining place, last is Mike and Liz's anniversary...FUN!!!

Great days!

What a great Father's Day we all had. Here we are taking a picture with the jalepeno mascot! Happy Father's Day to all.

The Piesman Family Competition

And guess who should be called out onto the field for the family competition? The Piesmans! Of course we were against a family with an 8 and 6 year old boys, so the competition was rough. We lost by only one beanbag, but had a great time being on the field.

Father's Day at the Missions Game

We enjoyed a lovely 104 degree game (luckily in the shade)to celebrate Father's Day. As you can see, Mike is really enjoying himself. Sam kept asking, "Are they better than the Red Sox?" I tried to explain the difference between major and minor leagues, but the concept was lost. Their mascots were a taco and a jalapeno pepper...only in San Antonio!

Father's Day Brunch

We had a lovely brunch with our family and we invited our friend, Mark, who is now a single dad while his wife is deployed to Iraq. First we swam and then enjoyed some eggs and french toast.

Good Job, SAM

I love this video, and love the "Good Job, Sam" that Tyler screams out right at the beginning. Sam had a great two weeks at the San Antonio Academy and it is so exciting that he can now read. As he embarks on Spanish immersion in just two months, and learns to read only in Spanish, his English reading will certainly serve him well.
