GO GIANTS!!!!

What handsome boys... GO GIANTS!!!!!!!!

After the many practices, the Giants had their first game tonight! The weather was PERFECT!

Second Baseman-BLAKE!

Kid pitch is really fun to watch! I gave Parker and Austin blue ringpops while they watched Blake play...just wait until you see what Austin looked like after eating it! Ha HA HAA!

Blake knocking one out of the park (almost).

Before I gave them ringpops, Parker and Austin played a little catch with each other, so cute :) oH and my cute husband trying to teach them technique :)

How funny is Austin...............

Here is his BLUE mouth-He's such a character, I wonder where he gets it from?

The Giants didn't win, but they played very well, keep at it Giants!!

G-I-A-N-T-S!!!

The wonderful world of SPORTS!

Sorry no pics to post this time, I haven't had my camera. Between Baseball and soccer and street Basketball my head is reeling! We have been LOVING, LOVING, LOVING the warm weather!! Austin loves the "popcorn" trees and everyday playing outdoors!! We finally put our tramp back up and I am surrounded by my boys and alot of sports!!!!!!!!!!!! :) It has been absolutely "MAUVELOUS"!! I should've taken a picture of my funky sunburn, you would've laughed--love ya all and HAPPY SPRING....FINALLY!

I promise pictures next time!

Say it aint so...

Spring Break comes to an end :(

On the gloomy and rainy days the kids played with their friends and made lots of messes!

Blake's baseball practice-Go Giants!

We made the long trek to see Matt's pad and homefront :) and found out that they're having a boy! We celebrated at the brick oven restaurant. The kids LOVED the balloon animals they got.

Parker's soccer game-he got some mighty large bruises on his legs from his game, yes he was wearing shinguards! He played extremely well!

Finding Easter Baskets at home-Austin found his Webkinz and ditched the rest of the basket, but realized he had more later :)

Yearly "Traditional" Balloon Launch

This is really neat. We go to the cemetary and write names and messages to loved ones who have died on balloons and send them or launch them. A million pop before the actual launching, but it's all in good fun. I think we have been doing this every year for about 5 years now.

And there they go!

Kids all lined up for an Easter Egg(Peanut free) hunt at Grandma's

Playing basketball in the rain at Grandmas. One very full and exciting week comes to an end :(

I have loved having the kids home and we all had a great week! I can't wait until summer-or even spring weather. I can't believe we are suppose to get snow again this week:( Hope you all had a fun week too!

Spring Break...so far

Spring Break, the last 2 days.....

It started raining and hailing on our baseball fun.

We had some fun tonight out in the rain playing ball.

Yesterday we went to the zoo.

Austin watching the SLOW turtle

The bear is back there, really.

The giraffe walking away, guess he didn't want to be in the picture.

4 little monkeys, posing in front of more little monkeys :)

Cougar

Almost as big!

The snake was climbing up the glass

We have been enjoying the warmer weather the last two days. We tried to soak it ALL up! Now we're going to curl up in front of the fire and watch the Tale of Desperaux. 3 more days to go...what's next?

Grandma & Grandpas house

Early Saturday morning we gathered at Grandma's and Grandpa's in our PJ's to have breakfast before conference. YUM!

We loved watching the falling snow.

The kids were quite hilarious and colored, might I add they were covered in marker.

We had a wonderful conference weekend, besides Blake throwing up,

hopefully no one else will get sick.

Today we spent the day outdoors! I love that it was warmer today, yeah! I kept the kids outside to get some sun, we need to clear out all the germ bugs and GET BETTER! Seriously.

We went on a bike ride to the park and fed the ducks.

Happy Day!

Tonight Parker discovered TWO loose teeth!! He is so excited because all of his friends have already lost teeth, it has FINALLY come for him!! :) It's like Christmas for him~HILARIOUS!

He keeps touching his loose teeth and smiling, I just had to post it!

Poor Austin still has a few years!
Blake keeps telling Parker he has lost 8 teeth already, he thinks he is the tooth expert! :)

Funny moment at our house!

OH Garbage!

Blake and I visited the landfill and burnplant this week. Yes, I went to the dump for a guided tour(For Blake's Academic Project). It was great, really! Blake wanted to learn more about recycling and what happens to our garbage when it leaves our house, I learned alot!! The Landfill Manager gave us a personal tour of the place, I can't believe what people throw away..WASTE, WASTE, WASTE! Another amazing thing is how awesome they are at recycling there at the landfill, there is so much that they are doing there for all of us! They take our garbage and reuse it in so many ways!

Blake loved the huge garbage crunching tractor at the landfill, they even let him operate it.

The burn plant was interesting, I'm glad they burn 90% of the garbage and only take the 10% to bury at the landfill. When we drove by the ponds you could hear frogs chirping in the pond, the landfill manager said it is chuck full of polywogs and frogs!! At the end, he took us in his office and showed us his pet tarantula, I stayed in the hallway~!

Also, it was Austin's last day at "Nastics" this week, I had my camera out of focus for some shots, sorry.

Things have been SOOOOOOOO busy here! I realize I don't have any pictures of Parker, so here ya go...He has been very busy and with us every step of the way!

Hope all is well with you!
