Take me out to the ball game...


Chase LOVED the game

Ayden LOVED the food

We all LOVED being there with friends

The party animals

Boy did we have a great night!!! The other night the kids and I went to LDS night at the San Antonio Missions baseball field! The greatest part was the Steve Young was going to be there. Now my kids have never seen, met or watched Steve Young but they know that when daddy was little he used to go watch Steve Young practice at the BYU stadium. ALL my kids wore their BYU shirts, hats and whatever else they could find. When we got to the game they were disappointed to find-out that the only way to meet Steve Young was to win a drawing. We all put our names in (including Thomas) and guess whose name they called...ME!!! Our friends all cheered us on as we the kids and I all ran to guest services. Well after all the hustle they couldn't find Steve Young so we all got more BYU t-shirts (we already get teased for the quantity of BYU t-shirts we have), but it was so fun! Really, the best part was being there with friends, watching the missionaries sing the anthem and the kids dance to the songs and cheer for all the players (my kids of course were cheering ,"Go BYU")! Chase looked me in the eyes and with pure little boy joy he said, "Mom, I love base ball"! What a night!

It's Girls Night!!!

School's Out!!!
So Miaja decided that she wanted to celebrate the end of first grade with a few of her good girl friends! We had homemade pizza, movies and, of course, hair-dos, nail polish and lots of great dress-ups!!! What a night! I'm just excited to have my favorite girl home for the summer!

Mr. T takes his first step...and his first duel!!!


The first duel

I love that face

He's walking...watch-out world!!!
i have become keenly aware that our family consists of mostly boys. my baby took his first steps and two days later I was making breakfast and I looked behind me to see this adorable little boy barely balancing in his diaper. he was holding a long knights sword and he had the biggest grin. he and ayden immediately began a duel and he has been holding onto that sword ever since! boys...we've got some pretty cute ones!

Chalk Bluffs...What a great trip!
