Coach pitch playoffs!

Today's was the playoff tournament for Charlie's team! We started at 11, and for home at 3:30! His team played awesome and made it to the championship game! They ended up taking second place! Great work Threahers!

Cancled games...project completed!

Charlie was suppose to have his playoff tournament today, but do to the never ending rain, they got postponed for tomorrow. It rained pretty much all day. So it was a great time to get some projects I have been working on completed!

The kids picture frames, I stenciled the frames and we hung them on the wall!

Grace's picture for her room. I have had the bible verse for two years and finally got the frame finished for it!

The milk jug is still a work in progress.

Eating me out of house and home!

William apparently is going through a growth spurt today. Ross said he hasn't stopped eating all day! Here he is, eating his third yogurt of the night, after already eating a huge supper....he also ate a whole apple after this, also while not taking his eyes off the tv!

Last T-ball game

Tonight was Williams last t-ball game. He had a special guest come to watch him play...his pre-school teacher Mr.Oster. He was thrilled!

This is just a really neat picture Ross took while working!

Guess not!

Sleep apparently was not in the cards for me last night. This is what I woke up to!

It was a long day at work, and I didn't have any energy to cook, so the kids and I headed to Red Robin for supper! Celebrated with some milk shakes!

Afterwards we headed to airport to welcome dad home!

Church, birthday, confirmation and a ball game!

Yup! We fit that all in on one day! Started our morning off by going to church. It was a longer service since it was Confirmation Sunday. An hour and 45 min to be exact. Kids sat pretty well. After church we stayed for a bit for the confirmation celebration held at church. The kids then had the neighbors birthday party at 12, so I dropped them off there and got a quick two hours to my self!

I picked them up at 2, and headed down to the Sydow family house to celebrate Noah's confirmation! Then found that Ethan's baseball team made the championship game in a local tournament so headed there to watch, not before dropping Charlie off at his Valley Stars baseball team practice!

Grace and Bryce watching the game!

Charlie at practice! Whofta...this momma is tired! Ross comes home tomorrow night! Tonight is Grace's night to sleep with mom! I hope to sleep like a rock!

Game and a wedding!

Charlie started out our day with a baseball game in the morning!

One of our past sitters got married today. So, the kids and I headed to Menomonie to wish her well!

We didn't get home till 10:30pm from the wedding, the kids had too much fun dancing! Tonight is Charlie's night to sleep with mom!

And he is off!

Ross is gone for 4 days for recurrent training for work. So it is just me and the kids. Tonight, William had a t-ball game. It was a beautiful night for baseball!

As custom, when dad is gone, one kid per night gets to sleep with mom! Tonight, it was Williams night!

Pace setter

Ross went for a run while the kids rode their bikes. This is how William rides his bike!

Watching ball

Yup...every night here except Mondays are ball days. Tonight Charlie was with dad, and I took William and Grace to Fall Creek to Grace's game. William really likes watching Grace play!

Game day!

Anita and her family came up to catch the kids ball games. Charlie was suppose to have one last night, but because of the rain, it was canceled! Today's games were not...however it was very cold! William even caught a line drive to end his game! He was excited his Aunt, Uncle and cousins got to see his catch!

Later on that night, we had a bon fire and burned our Christmas tree!

End of School year picnic

Today is the last day of school. Grace's Last day as a 3rd grader. Teachers were Mrs. Gurgle and Mrs. Ryan

Charlie's last day as a 1st grader. Teacher was Mrs. Reim

As tradition, there is a picnic and water balloon fight that follows. Unfortunately it rained in the morning, and the forecast didn't look promising, so the picnic was canceled. That didn't stop us! We headed to the park with the Sydow famiy and had our own picnic and water balloon fight!

William and Ross getting the water balloons ready. We got 200 all ready to go. Later in the day, in rained again! That didn't stop the boys from playing a little basketball in the rain!

Ross's sister Anita and her family came up for the weekend and, so we also played some wiffle ball in the rain...in the dark!! Why not!

Entertainment Night!

It was entertainment night for school tonight. Kids put on some great skits!
