BASEBALL, BASEBALL, BASEBALL

I do believe that this is strictly what our life consists of right now. Between three practices a week and double headers on Saturday, it is all that we do. Holden is loving his traveling team. Brad and Goose are doing an amazing job with these boys. They've won 3 of their last 4 games. Holden told me last night that he almost likes baseball as much as football. If you know Holden, you know that means alot. He lives for football.

Easton just turned 12 last week and on Sunday was ordained a deacon. I can't believe how fast the time flies by. It wasn't that long ago he was going into the nursery at church and next week he will be collect fast offerings and passing the sacrament. He gets to go to Young Men's tomorrow night. The only downside is that I lose my babysitter on Tuesday nights while I am at Young Women's. It's just a small sacrafice though. He is also the official Guitar Hero champ at our house after this weekend.

Kinley is still just Kinley. Her life revolves around dressing up, making up dances and cheers and playing make-believe. After spending an hour curling her hair for church yesterday I had to turn around and spend 5 minutes curling her "best friend" Cee-Cee's hair.

When I get my pics downloaded this week, I'll add some pics of Holden's baseball.

Life on a Farm




The boys and Ted helped with the cows on Saturday. The boys' job was to make sure the calves were in the shoot at all times and to keep pushing them through to get branded, shots and castrated. Kinley and I went down in the afternoon to see the cows but Kinney was not impressed with the noise or the smell. Here are a couple of pics of the boys with their "scrotees". That night for dinner they ate rocky mountain oysters (Ted breaded them and fried them up). Kinley and I ate something else for dinner.

Quiet Time

We've had a pretty quiet couple of weeks. It's actually been nice. Holden ended up getting sick at the end of spring break and missed a whole week of school, but he's up and going and doing fine now. We are still just doing baseball practice and dancing. Kinley did tell me last night that she was going to go and live with Tyson and Caylee and be Padyn's big sister. She is convinced that Padyn is her sister and Crew is her cousin. Go figure. She will be sleeping in one of their rooms in their basement. Oh well!!
