The boys are at that age that they like to wrestle and fight each other. I don't get it but Jeff tells me it's just what boys do. So, I take pictures and try not to be such a "mom" when someone gets hurt.

Tallyn
I wanted to let everyone know that Tallyn has decided to play baseball. He waited till the last minuet and we had to scramble around to get everything and his uniform, I hope, will be in the same time as the other boys. So much for a break, they practice a ton! He also announced that he wanted to start boxing. Mom is not happy about this but I think Dad is about to pee his pants excited. We are waiting till after baseball and only if he decides not to play football. I'm tired.

Just girls...nothing else matters...nothing at all...nothing....at...all

Texas

Jimmy get so excited when we come home
.
I'm thrilled I really am!!

My big strong man

They changed out the front door while we were there. Let's just say it was a pain in the @$$!

Just hangin' in Granny's back yard

Don't let the sweetness fool you

Kiddos with grandparents

He might be 13 but he'll still get on granddad's lap

Granny and her babies...she makes them rotten

Grandad made a video of them screaming and now they are watching themselves scream...ugh

The kids with Granny Terri, Granny Brown and Caroline...I have never heard her called anything else but she is a granny too. We will give a shout out to Steve for lunch...he fed a big group!

Ellie being silly

ROCK ON!!!!!

Hmmmm....I should have listened about eating watermelon seeds

I promise to take pictures of the kids soon. We will all be together in Texas this week and I will get some new ones up. We have done nothing but GO and go some more. I told Jeff today that I am so ready to get away for a few days with the kids. Either they are with their friends or we have a house full of boys so it feels like I don't get to spend time with just them anymore. So, I promise to have something up soon....

We are done with basketball. We lost again today but the boys have come so far this year. When the season started they were still a little timid and by the last game I think they invented the sport of tackle basketball. When they fouled they made sure it was worth it. It was great! Next year is the first year for full court, I'm excited to see that.

Tallyn is refusing to play baseball..he says he will just wait till football. I think it's so he can skate all summer. Suits me just fine!

2 weeks till we go to Texas...see ya soon Mom!

Dustin....can't wait until you come home...we miss you so much.

One more thing..I was getting on to Rebel last night and noticed that he was eye level with me. This growth spurt is out of hand!!

We lost the last game. It was back and forth the whole game. I so wish they would have played like this all season. Tallyn made some really good shots. The last 2 games he has hit more shots than he has the entire season put together. Our next game in the tournament is on Sat. I will let you know how it goes....

Tallyn's team won the first game in the tournament last night and we have another game tonight. They have won the last 3 games and are doing a great job working together. Tallyn scored 16 points...he was on cloud 9 after the game.
