Davy's Wedding

Last weekend we traveled to Round Rock (Austin), TX for a friend's wedding. The kids were awesome on the drive - and at the wedding.

The setting was beautiful, as was the ceremony, dinner and reception!! Enjoy the scrapblog of the pictures we got. I really wish we would have brought our good camera - we would have even better pics!

Warm weather and baseball season!!!

I am so happy that Spring may finally be here! It was 83 degrees at 5:30!!!

Cameron had baseball tryouts Saturday - and he did really well!! We were so proud to call him son (well we always are!). He really knocked 2 hits - better than anyone else we saw. Now we are just waiting on the call to see what team we got on - and whether he made black or gold division!!

This weekend we are going to Davy's wedding in Austin, TX - so a little weekend getaway! i will post some pics when we get home!!

So - enjoy the weather if you live here!

Day at the Park!

Today and yesterday we took a trip to our neighborhood park. It is a little of 1/2 mile walk each way - up some major hills. But the kids made it both times - I should say Cameron jogged most of the way both times - but for Kiana making it was a big deal.



Tonight when we got home she said "next time we go to the park, let's take the car".LOL



She has conquered everything on the playground at the park. This equipment is for 5-12 year olds - so some of it was scary to her - but afte the screaming, crying fit to get her to try each thing - she always decides that she likes it. Her arms aren't quite strong enough for her to go across the monkey bars on her own, but I think by the end of the summer she may be able to!!!



Cameron and Eric took their baseball gloves, to get Cameron's arm ready for tryouts next Saturday. So, just as basketball ends, baseball begins. Hopefully next weekend we can get Kiana a playmate to go to the park. She is always wanting someone to play with her - but there is never anyone there.



I hope everyone has a great week. We have a busy week ahead as usual!!!

We are the Champions!!

Our basketball team, the Falcons, pulled it off last night and won the 6th/7th grade championship game. It was a really good game. The team we played was undeafeted - but we almost beat them in regular season too. We only lost by 2 points.

I think the final score was 28-22.


Cameron played the first quarter - and did OK. He played much better Thursday night during the first quarter. We had some really good boys on the team, and last night they did an awesome job. So - an end to a really good season. (we only lost 2 games).


Congratulations Falcons!!

Random post

I am in the JBU Advance program working on my bachelor's - and tomorrow I have a final. So tonight, I invited the class over to study. Hopefully this will help me ace the test tomorrow - as well as help my fellow classmates.

While I was home studything the boys went to Buffalo Wild Wings - and Kiana stayed with Mark & Glenda.

Tomorrow night we have the big basketball championship. And we found out one of the other team's better players is out at church camp and will miss the game. So keep your fingers crossed for a win!!

Last night my boss, Marti, gave birth to her first child, a son, George Thomas, 8 lbs 8 oz and 20 inches long. We took a "field trip" this morning and went to meet him. He was sleeping like a "baby". So sweet.

Let's see, do I have any more randomness!! Oh yeah. In 2 weeks we are going to Austin, TX for a friends wedding! That should be a fun little weekend away.

I promise to post some pictures on my next post!!

Basketball Update!!!!

Tonight at 8:30 was Cameron's semi-final game against the Irish. During our first meeting the Irish was missing a key player - but they beat us. Tonight that player was there - but our boys were on fire - and ended up winning by quite a margin. Pathetically I am not sure of the exact score - but I think it was 18-30.

Sat. night we go on to face the undefeated Hawkeyes at 5:45 PM. During our first meeting with them we were winning most of the game and they came back at the end. Hopefully our coach has a plan for us to defeat them in the championship.

This is the first time we have ever been on basketball team that went this far - so this is awesome.

As I said before, Basketball is not Cameron's best sport. But tonight he played the first quarter, and he did an awesome job guarding. I think after the first quarter the score was 2-13.

So - be thinking of us Saturday night as we go into the championship game!!!! Go Falcons!!!
