Kayley's Opening Day!

Kayley team is 1st. American and they played Brook's. This was her first game of 2 that day. We won!!! She is loving it so far. They went on to win their 2nd game against Sonic that afternoon. Way to go girls they played some good ball that day and of course they showed outstanding sportsmanship hope it stays that way. Funny I never thought I would be one of those Moms sitting in the stands yelling but I was Kayley played some good ball nearly lost my voice I was so proud of her. I think for the season they will have about 20 games..WOW that's alot of yelling but we're going to have a blast!! Keep ya posted about the games some nites she plays double headers...that will make for a long nite I guess but as long as she's enjoying it!

Play Ball !!

Cody first ever baseball game! He was so nervous. They are the Mets and that nite they played the Rangers. Sad to say they lost but they tried really hard. I was so proud of him. I love it that their coach lets them pray right before the game, He has another game tonite so maybe they can win this one. Good Luck Boys! You can do it!

They showed great sportsmanship such sweet little guys!

Loving our weather!

We have had such beautiful weather lately! On Friday since the kids were out out of school we went to Tishomingo State Park to play, walk some trails, and my favorite take pics of the kids. Wish I was better at it but I love trying not so sure the kids like it so much, but oh well. I packed a picnic lunch we had a really good day. My brother gets married next weekend on the beach...CANNOT WAIT!! So ready to get out of town for a few days and see the ocean and of course lots of pics on the beach. I've been wanting to get family pics of us on the beach for a long time now. Thinking about what we could wear maybe all white I think that would be so pretty I love seeing girls or even little boys dressed in white walking along the beach. Ready to enjoy some fresh seafood too!

On the hunt....

We had such a beautiful day Sunday hunting eggs, spending time with family, eating candy! The kids had such a good time. We went to my parent's church Sunday morning and had a hunt right after church. Tony has been out of town working now for 2 weeks so he missed Easter this year I'm soooo thankful for his job but at the same time it's hard on all of us. We just keep praying that hopefully some day soon he'll get to work close to home and be home everyday. Ball practice and games have started and they need their dad. I can take them and encourage them all day long but I don't know anything about baseball and softball plus it's not them same if he's not there. Ok enough of that I could go on all day about that subject!! I think he's going to try and surprise Cody and make it to his first game Thursday nite hope it works out so he can. He's been asking all week if daddy can make it he's so nervous...breaks my heart...but I'm going to think positive and good thoughts:)

He's Home!

We went picked my little brother up from Camp Shelby in south Mississippi, he just got back from his 2nd tour in Iraq. So great to see his face! As we pulled in to get him he waved us down....what a sight we were so happy to see him we all lost it! He looked great and had gotten in shape since I saw him last. Just a few more weeks till we go to the beach for his wedding....can't wait! Things have been hectic around here ball has started so with practice for both we are at the ball field every nite....yeah! But the kids are having a ball that's all that matters any way...right? Post more later gotta go:)

Friday is the day!!

We found out today that we can pick my brother up Friday..for sure! He called this morning and he is in Texas and will be at Camp Shelby on Friday..thank you Lord he is home..I can't even type for the tears! This time has been really hard for me so emotional. I think it really hit me how dangerous his job was and how crazy they are over there.  How they don't care about human life. And the scary part is he has decided to be in the military full time now. It takes some special people to be in the military we owe them so much. I plan on taking some pics of his homecoming for sure. Last time I was not able to go, but this time we will be there with bells on and flags a waving and tears flowing!

Homecoming!!!

Chris my little brother who has been on his 2nd tour in Iraq, who we haven't laid eyes on in almost a year will be home next Friday!! So happy can't wait to see him! We have prayed for his safe return. We pray for our troops to come home and most times they do but some don't while we celebrate I can't help but think of all the families who won't be having such a happy homecoming I pray for them always. I also pray his experience over there won't bother him once he is home....Lord only knows what he has seen and had to do. I am so proud of him and all he has done. Kayley and Cody thinks he hung the moon and he has:) Welcome home 155th! God Bless Our Troops!!
