Making memories...

My Gordy...

He had been my grandpa since I was 6.  He was one of my favorite people.  Whoopie!  He was so funny and makes me and my kids laugh.  He always supported me in all I did.  He was perfect for my grandma.  Was so good to her.  In the end he lost some of his mind and will to live.  I am glad he is with mom now.  She loved him so much!  We will all miss you!    

Mom, I am bored...

REALLY?  These kids are so spoiled!  We just hung out today at home after school, played outside, rode bikes, went for a walk.  It was the first night in a long time we didn't have to be anywhere and I actually heard more than one time that they were bored.  UGH~ 

A little scare...

Yesterday we had the boys over for batting practice.  We all waited to walk over to the neighbors together through the wash.  I opened the tennis court door that leads out to the wash and I was looking behind me talking to one of the coaches, Halle went out before me and I hear her say "mom, look a snake".  I look down and see that she is straddling a huge rattler.  I had the baby on my hip and while screaming "no" cuz she was leaning down to touch it, I grabbed her arm swung her up and over and threw her onto the tennis court.  Slammed the door and turned around to see all the boys and coaches with their jaws dropped!  I don't know how she didn't step on it and why it didn't strike.  I am not sure I will ever know how we escaped that one.  I just know that I see it every second still.  And It took me a good 45 minutes to come down from the adrenaline rush.  I love snakes, I am not afraid of them.  I have been waiting to see one around here because I know they are everywhere.  I just didn't want to see it like that!!!!!  

We had a good long talk about what to do if you see a snake  :)

Oh and we won tonight 13-0 so we are still in the playoffs.

Welcome baby G~

My not so little brother and his fiance Heather had their first baby yesterday.  What a great Mothers Day present eh?  She is a perfect angel.  I did not expect to be as sad as I was about it.  It really hit me that I am done.  I won't have a baby again.  I didn't like that feeling... I am going to have to get as much as I can of others babies I guess... I will take all I can get of this one.

Happy Mother's Day!

Just kiddos and I at church!

My gorgeous flowers from D

Glad to have Grams here for part of the day...

Of course needed to go say hi to mom...

My favorite picture ever!

OUCH~

Baseball season is winding down and it may be over sooner than we anticipated.  We started playoffs today.   We should have won and we were killed.  Double elimination so we still get another chance.  But we have to fight our way back up.  It was a tough loss for everyone!  The boys took it hard!  I am not cut out for the stress that is kids playing sports.  Man!

I am in for it...

She already knows how to flirt!

Happy birthday D~

I hope you know how much you are LOVED!!  It is enough to fill Dodger stadium.  :)  Happy day!  

XO

Just because...

I felt like it.  I picked the kids up and took them to the beach.  We made a small getaway out of it.  It was perfect!
