Braxton

He wants to be like the big kids so bad!! Anything that has wheels, he is on! Bikes, motorcycles, 4 wheelers, you name it...

Beau's 1st T-Ball Game

Beau had his first t ball game when Brody was at camp so it worked out really well for me. I could actually watch his whole game and not have to run back and forth. The rest of the season has not been as easy but at least I got to stay for his whole game the first go round!

Rainy Day Fun

Rainy days NEVER get my kids down! :) We have had some fun rain storms this summer and a few of them have flooded out our ditches like crazy. This one was on a pretty warm day so when the kids ran downstairs, changed into the suits and came begging to go play in it I had to agree... When the rain started coming down again - nice and hard - they were forced back inside, reluctantly, by their mother! :)

Brody's 1st Triathalon!

My cousin Heidi runs a triathalon for the kids on Red Eye River Days and this year Brody was eligible to participate. He wasn't too sure about doing the whole thing on his own but she has a team event that he was super excited for. He paired up with his cousin Tori, who did the swimming; his cousin Gavin, who did the biking and Brody got to do the running. They did a great job and had a ton of fun doing it... Brody, Tori, Gavin

Tractor Pull

During Red Eye River Days this year Josh signed all the kids up for the tractor pull. They had a lot of fun doing it - didn't win any medals but they were excited just to do it and to get the pop for participating! :) Brody

Silly boy!

Not exactly what I thought that these balls would be used for when I found them at a garage sale...

1st day of tball...

It's definitely been a busy summer of go, go, go for our family... I was looking back at my last post and the boys are all already in need of haircuts again! Can't believe how fast time flies... I have been taking pictures, it's the sitting down to blog about what we have been doing that is getting in the way! :) The boys are both in tball this year, which makes practices and games very interesting for mom! They have enough kids to separate into two groups and of course the boys are on different fields. So I spend half of the practice at one field and then make my way to the next... Games are even more entertaining trying to run back and forth between innings! oh well, it's a good time and they seem to be having fun. Brody being the good older brother and carrying the bat bags...
So excited to start!
and the ultimate tball pose...
