Baseball has begun!

And boy am I ever glad!

Last weekend was our first Stixx Tournament. We headed off to Columbia for the wet, soggy weekend. We did get two of our four games in. Friday night we lost 6-3 and then Saturday morning we lost 11-1. The first game wasn't too bad... but that second game! We could have done without it! Braxton did have an awesome hit the second game though. He has been struggling hitting the ball the last couple of years so it was great to see him get a great hit. I asked the coach how far he thought he hit it and he said probably 175 ft. It was a long high fly ball, but the center fielder made a heck of a catch. Even though he caught it, it was great for Brax to get that great of a hit! I can't wait to witness more hits like that this year.

So here are a few pics from the weekend. Since we didn't get to play much, I didn't get very many pictures. Someone asked me if I got a picture of Braxton hitting that ball and I said no, I was just too excited!

Hohawk (Mohawk)

All of my boys have been dying to get mohawks. I am going to just let them do it and be done with it.

What's the bid deal anyway? It's just hair, it will grow back!

So the other night I was messing around and gave Braylon a Mohawk, Hohawk as he calls it. He LOVED it!!!

As we were going to bed he told me that he wanted me to give him a Mohawk in the morning before we left. So when morning came, I told him if he didn't get out of bed he wasn't getting a Mohawk. He was up and at 'em very quickly.

Let me tell you, I have boys, like you didn't already know that, but seriously I never get the opportunity to actually do one of my kids hair. Unless you call doing their hair when you spit on your hand and pet them so those stray hairs won't stick up anymore. So I was really excited to do his hair.

We used gel, hairspray and the blow dryer! I think it turned out rather cute. He has had several of them since then and has had several compliments on it. Maybe this will satisfy him and we won't have to actually cut his hair in a Mohawk.

It's that time of year again

I am so excited for this weekend.

I live for baseball season! I just love watching all the kids play ball.

We are headed out today for Columbia to Braxton's first Stixx tournament. Last year it was in the 40's and raining. This year it is in the 60's and 70's and..... raining! We will be prepared though. Last year we had these little bitty umbrellas and this year we have A GREAT BIG one.

Hopefully the rain will pass through and let us play some ball.

I will post pictures as soon as I get home.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.

What's the deal?

My stinking blogroll does not want to update. So I am going to try and post a post and see if it will update.

If not.... I'm gonna get a little upset!!

Have a great day:)

Love.....

THIS WEATHER!!!!

I can't say it enough!!

I love how it stays light later,

I love being outside,

I love the feel of the warm air against my skin,

I love hearing all the birds chirping,

I love seeing all the flowers coming up,

I love watching the grass turn green,

I love it, love it, love it!

Hoppy Spring!
