Baseball is here!

Yeah we are so excited for some baseball! Yes spring baseball is here and Jack is loving it! He has played some amazing baseball already, but still has a lot of learning to do. He split his first two games, winning the first and losing the second. He has gone 4-4 and made some great defensive plays for outs. Jack likes to play short stop or second base the best and has done very well at those positions. To see his intensity for the game get more and more is great. Lots more baseball to come. GO WARRIORS!

Easter

What an amazing Easter we had! The weather finally held and we could go outside and enjoy the day. The Easter Bunny came to the house and left baskets for the kiddos and then it was off to Mimi and Pa's for an Easter lunch. The kids were so excited to do an egg hunt that we had to start off the celebration with the hunt. They were so happy to be outside and enjoy the sun. Then we had a family baseball game in the front and it was so much fun. We definitely worked up an appetite and we were off to eat some great food. The family time was great, the weather was wonderful and we couldn't of asked for a better day! We had a fabulous time!

Tucson, Arizona

We had sooo much fun in Arizona! Okay so it was last minute and we didn't really plan it, but it was the best thing we could of done. We piled the kids into the Yukon and down the road we went. We stopped in Santa Fe for the most amazing lunch and then it was off to Tucson. While in Tucson we went to the Sonora Desert Museum, Old Tucson, the Pima Air and Space Museum, U of A, and a Rockies Spring training game. Yes for only a four day trip we did a lot, but the kids were happy and we were even more happy! One of the best parts was it was 80 degrees there and we missed the big snowstorm here!

BON JOVI!

Yeah an adult night of fun with Bon Jovi, how can you go wrong! We enjoyed a wonderful night filled with dinner at Lime with Jason and Elise and then off to the concert. We had great seats and the music was amazing! We sang along to all the old tunes and were moved by his touching performance of Hallelujah. Its always nice to get out and have some "grown up" time on occasion and we finished the night off with Wanted Dead or Alive and Livin' on a Prayer, Whoa Oh Livin' on a Prayer! So much fun!

George Washington

Jack has been working very hard on his Famous Americans project the last three weeks. He was so excited because he was chosen to portray George Washington. Each second grade class had a Famous American and they had a speech they had to present at the presentation. Jack gathered numerous facts and made several props for the presentation. Dad and I were so proud of him for memorizing his lines and making such a wonderful presentation. His entire class did an amazing job on the unit and it was a lot of fun!

BIG 8 YEAR OLD!

Where oh where has the time gone! It is hard for us to believe that our oldest is eight years old! Yes most of the time he wants be or acts like he is sixteen, but it is truly amazing how quickly the time has gone! Jack is amazing in every way and we are truly blessed to have him. He is such a sweet boy and he loves life to the fullest! The last eight years have flown by so we are going to make sure we take in every moment that we can and yes Mom will be there with her camera! You are a wonderful boy Jack and we look forward to the next years and all they will bring!

Disney Live

We had such a fun night at Disney Live. Lisa and I took the little ones, Samantha and Brody to see the live show. They loved dancing and singing will all the stars. Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy all were there. They watched in amazement as Cindrella danced and Woody and Buzz Lightyear helped out as well. It was fun to do something just for the little ones!
