Look Who's Smiling...

Smiling is infectious,

You can catch it like the flu.

Someone smiled at me today,

And I started smiling too.

Take Me Out...

to the

Ball  GAME!

Take me OUT with the crowd,

Buy me some peanuts and CRACKER JACKS

I don't care if we ever get back!

Root, Root, Root for the HOME team,

If they Don't win it's a shame.

For it's 1...2...3 STRIKES you're out

at the ole' BALL game!

Since we didn't make it to the Cubs game in May, we took both -A- and -J- to their first baseball game to see the FW Cats!  The boys had a blast and since we were 4 rows behind home plate it was an amazing experience.  -A- had a hard time with the foul balls that went up and over.  He was rather concerned about where the ball went and at one point let us know it was okay because the airplane flying overhead would get the ball.  We will definitely be going back!!!

All Geared Up...

This little man is all Geared UP...

With new cleats, shin guards and a ball

He is Ready

to Start

practicing

and play some SOCCER!

The trick is going to be keeping this one in the stands!

Coming this Fall...

Silliness...

Or is it STUBBORNESS...

You think it's crooked, don't you?

Well I would like to see you just try and fix it!  Cause I guarantee it's going right back, so maybe it's a little of BOTH!

The Great Outdoors...

-N- and -A- love bubbles...

and really who doesn't?

Running around...

Chasing the bubbles

& PoPPiNg them!

Really the only one who gets tired of bubbles is the one blowing them, unless you have a bubble blower that is.

Afterwards -N- enjoyed making silly faces

and -A- enjoyed laughing at his bigger brother.

See???

Where Can We Get...

This one's REDNECK card?

Just look at that tow job, I mean seriously, this solves all those bobcat hauling, horse towing, Bronco driving singers(?) problems, does it not?

Mine...

This little boy is...

Mine

All

MINE!

Let the Rain Come Down...

Unfortunately in our neck of the woods it is NOT very often that there is a storm that isn't accompanied by thunder and lightning, but when it happens, my kids...

Put on their rain boots...

stand in the rain...

Find puddles...

get WET...

Splash...

Jump...

and EnJoY!!!

Happy Birthday America...

Happy Fourth of July!!!

The boys spent the day the All AMERICAN way!

They had a blast playing baseball, running and fielding...

batting and hitting...

and playing catch!

Then we barbecued and sat on the deck to watch fireworks!

All in all a wonderful day had by all!

oh and let's not forget DESSERT!
