A Bunch Mad

Yesterday AP was mad. How mad? "A bunch mad."

Because she couldn't ride her bike in the street without mommy and daddy.

Sooooooooooo unfair.

But after all my picture taking of her super mad faces,

she was happy again!

Are you ready for some baseball?

Last night C's baseball team had a parents vs kids scrimmage. It was FREEZING, but we found the key to keeping our little zero-percent-body-fat-boy warm.....Feet warmers!! They are insoles that stay warm that we can slide into his shoes. Genius. At first, I was afraid they would get too hot, but we checked often and they never did.

Daddy made it to first.

This morning, as in before the sun came up, some of our running group at church headed down to Centennial Park for the Runnin' To Beat The Blues 5K. It was chilly, but perfect running weather. We couldn't miss the chance to have our picture made with I.C.Hope, the mascot for the Mental Health Association. A great cause to run for!

After the race, it was time to get ready for the first game of the spring baseball season, well it was actually a scrimmage, but I don't think the kids knew that. Our team ended up losing 9 to 12, but C had the best hit he has ever had! We were all so excited, the ball actually went all the way into left field. He got a hit his second at bat as well, after fouling it off SIX times!

A wonderful weekend so far!

Hello Spring!

Our week back in the real world brought with it beautiful weather this week!! We've been super busy with doctors appts, dentist appts, 3 baseball practices, gymnastics, and church. But we did manage to squeeze in time to play outside and enjoy the weather.

C asked me to take a picture of the "eye" on this fallen tree.

Unfortunately, the beautiful weather left us yesterday. As I type this is it cold and rainy :( Such is the weather here in TN.

Bye Bye Beach (Warning: Lotso Pictures)

If a picture speaks a thousand words, then here's

We made it home safely from our little spring break vacation last night. The kiddos did awesome in the car! It's a lot to ask a 4 and 7 year old to stay sane in the car for 12 hours.

We are back to reality tomorrow, whether we like it or not!! I've read other blogs or FB statuses saying that people are glad to be home and I wish I agreed. Don't get me wrong, I love our home and our church and our schools, but all 4 of us are total beach lovers. We would all 4 still rather be digging our feet into the sand for sure.
