Roadrunners Baseball

Our little league team had an amazing chance to meet the Roadrunners team and run out on the field with a player for the National Anthem. They were so cute standing next to the players and then the announcer called out the professional players name and then the little leaguers name and they ran to the base. Hunter ran out with A.J Valentine #32. They looked so small out there! It was a perfect night and even though our team is really awful we had fun eating treats, lots of treat, and of course chasing the roadrunner around! TJ and Brock also each got a ball that all the kids signed on our team it was really cute, we are gonna miss them!

Fishing

Grandpa Ken took Hunter and Luke (cousin) fishing in Enterprise over Memorial and they had such a great time. Last year after an hour Hunter would get bored but this year they were gone most the day and had a blast! They each caught their limit of four and had a ton of treats! Hunter was so proud of his catch and couldn't wait to show us well he got home and we were all asleep! Hunter loved being able to go out with just the boys.

Hunters TBall pics

Here are the team pictures, these boys were so much fun to watch GO RED SOX GO! It was our last game and Hunter had a home run and of course slide home! Hunter had so much fun playing with his new friends and cousin Carter and best friend August!

Sweet Dreams

Last night TJ and Brielle went fishing with grandpa Ken, and she caught a big fish! He didn't bring the camera so this is off his camera phone. Sophie was in bed and Hunter and I played games and read stories on the swing, before bed. I stayed on the swing and was on the internet, for an hour and when I went to bed and this note was on my pillow along with one chocolate chip! lol! Oh I love this little man! It says I love you so much Good Night Mom

Memorial Day

For Memorial Day we visited Grandma Bentleys grave my Mom and the kids bought some pretty flowers and painted a picture to give to her. We walked around a bit and looked at all the headstones most had at least a few flowers on them but we came upon one with nothing, Hunter ran back and picked a flower from grandma's and placed it on the empty one. I couldn't help myself I started tearing up and told Hunter that was a very sweet thing to do. He said that the Grandma in Heaven would be sad if she didn't have anything pretty on her grave and our Grandma had so many and he knew she would want to share too. He is right Grandma was the most selfless sweetest ladies and I am so glad some of that sweetness wore off on my son. Here is one of my favorite quotes, thank you to all you Hero's out there who allow my family and I to live in peace.
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
-Theodore Roosevelt-

Schools out for summa!

I am starting to scan all their artwork from this school year to make a blurb book, it will be so much easier to have a book each year instead of tons of papers, I only wish I would have done it throughout the year instead lol! Next year for their work that is too big to scan I will take their picture with instead. Live and learn right? Here are a couple of pieces from each of them and the pictures are from our picnic at the park after graduation, I don't know where they get their moves! The class picture Hunter is third from the right on the top row and next to him is his so called girlfriend oh puppy love! ha! He is going to be so embarrassed years from now looking at this picture, such a poser! Double click on the picture if you want to enlarge it! They are both done with school for 11 weeks yep 11 long weeks for me lol, we have a ton of fun things planned for the summer and it will just be nice not having to run around really crazy with school and soccer, TBall, dance, and everything else for awhile! Hunter thinks I am crazy his teacher and I cried and he just hugged us and asked why we were sad. I remember crying the last day of school even in High School! Little did I know it would contiune throughout my life, I know I am a baby! I cry at everything, I use to tease my Mom about it but know I know why she did well still does! You are just so proud of these little ones and know what they have accomplished and know it gets harder and harder the older they get. Can't they just stay little without a care in the world?

PJ day
