What We've Been Up To

The boys are out of school for the summer! They both had great years. We are so very thankful for the wonderful teachers they had!

Garrett worked so hard this year. Man third grade is tough! On the last day he got awards for making the A/B Honor Roll for the last nine weeks and also for A/B Honor Roll for the whole year! Every year his teacher gives awards in the class, he got Voracious Reader Award...for reading almost every book in sight! So proud of you sweet boy!

Grant had a great year also! He got an Outstanding Student Award! He is also very proud that he never had to move his clip of green...which means he was never in trouble once the whole year! What a great kid!
Gavin finished up his first Tee ball season. He loved every minute of it! He has been watching his brothers play his whole life and has just been waiting for his turn. We had a great team and loved playing with them!

We have been hanging out in the back yard everyday! We had some fun friend come over to hang out with us! I love this picture and the little girl in it! She can totally hang with this group of boys and fit right in!
We plan on spending lots of time at the rec pool this summer!

Baseball With The Stars

Clay had his first game today. He did a great job and I am so proud of him! The second time he was up to bat he hit hard...then they called it out because he hit too hard??? Guess, he has to work on that!

Up to bat


playing the field

now for the stars part...not everywhere is there a star on the local team. He played against Jason Aldean!!!! And got to be the proud guy who caught the ball he hit into the out field!
