We have been BUSY to say the least. Not that I am complaining just explaining my lack of blog entries.Just a quick explanation of the pictures above.
Picture 1 features :
Macy in her softball uniform and one of her up to bat. This is her first season playing fast pitch softball and she is doing really well. She is loving being on a team with her school friends and it has given Brian and I the opportunity to get to know her friends parents better. She was awarded the game ball last Saturday for hitting a double.
Parker is dressed as a spider for Bug Day. He and I put our heads together to decide what bug to be and I went to work crafting him a outfit. We were both pleased how well it turned out.
Logan turned 11 today. We celebrated his birthday last weekend by attending an Arena Football game with 16 friends and family. He is such an smart and interesting young man. His wit amazes me and drives me crazy all at the same time. Eleven years ago after a long hard 9 months of pregnancy,I was a mother for the first time. I was excited yet scared , that day my views on the world changed. His life was more important than my own and there was nothing I wouldn't do for him. Being our first born everything with him was an experiment and so far I think we are passing the test . He has a bright future ahead of him and I looking forward to the many years to come.
The city in the picture is Las Vegas at night. Brian and I went with all the Dealnews (Brian's company) employees for an 10 year Anniversary trip. We left on a Friday and returned on Sunday.It was bit of a whirlwind trip but very nice treat for all the hard work Brian and his coworkers have put in.

The group shots are from Easter. There is one of the kids with their Easter baskets and a group picture of them dressed up while we visited family in Huntsville. Collin was just adorable at Easter this year. He really got into hunting the plastic eggs and he quickly figured out if he threw them on the driveway they would pop open and he could eat the candy that was inside.
Then there is Logan in his Safety Patrol badge. This is a joke around here.The thought that small kids safety is in the hands of the Absent Minded Professor (Logan) is alittle scary to me. But we are proud of him for wanting to have a responsible role around his school and pray that he doesn't smash anyones hands in a car door.
Lastly here is Parker during a soccer game. Parker is playing soccer again and he is loving it. He is one of the star players on his team. It's very cute how he gives me the thumbs up while on the field and how he high-fives all his pals when they score.
The kids are counting down 19 days left till summer break from school. We are all ready. People look at me crazy when I say that but I enjoy spending the summer days with the kids. Now if the weather would just warm up enough to do some swimming before June. And I promise I will not abandon the blog till then either.
