Makes My Heart Smile

Quite possibly my favorite picture of all time. I love these three guys!

Happy 6 &1/2 Birthday!

A few weekends ago, we had the boys birthday party.  This year we had a camping theme.  Thankfully the weather held out and the party was perfect.

The Cake

Hot Dogs are the best camping food!

The Gourmet S'More table was my favorite.  Yummy!

Pinatas and Presents

Chris and the Twins and a few of the guys were going to sleep in the front yard in tents to complete the festivities.  Unfortunately, the weather didn't hold out that long, and there was a huge storm that blew through.  Around midnight, the "campers" were moved inside.

This is what the tents looked like in the morning.  Probably a good thing they came on it.

Mother's Day

The boys, with the help of their daddy got me these beautiful flowers for Mother's Day. Such sweethearts!

The Cutest Bees on the Block

A few weeks ago the boys had a school music program titled "Bugz".  The kindergarten class was a swarm of bees. Of course, my bees were the cutest on the block!

Daddy's Birthday Fishing Trip

This past weekend our family of 4 packed up and went camping and fishing for Daddy's birthday.  I'll have to admit that tent camping made me a little nervous, but it was not as bad as I anticipated.  We had a lot of fun.

Heath had a little bit of a cough and his asthma was acting up, but being the good parents we are, we didn't let that deter our fishing.  So we packed up the nebulizer and hooked it up to the boat batteries and we still managed to give him a breathing treatment every three hours. No Problem!

We caught a ton of channel cat and blue cat, but we only kept and cleaned the yellow cat.  Theory has it that they are the best ones to eat.  My mighty fishermen.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game...

I'm not the biggest fan of baseball, but T-Ball is a completely different story. There is just nothing cuter than a bunch of little-bitties that don't have a clue what they are doing.  Heath and Hunter are starting to grow out of that stage, but they (and the rest of their team) are so fun to watch.

It really is more of a competition over who can get their pants the dirtiest, who can slide into home plate best (yet still miss it by a mile), and who can pick the prettiest flowers.  I call it "Full Contact T-Ball" because we often just tackle the person who is unlucky enough to get to the ball first.  If the game isn't moving fast enough for them, then they play "High-Five the 2nd baseman with your glove on," and I have yet to see a game where at least one player, while running the bases, doesn't have to take a detour to the potty.  So fun!

Heath at bat!  Notice his "Hit and Spin" maneuver.

Hunter at bat.
