I must, I must, I must get caught up!

Tee Ball, dance receitals and the end of school is among us.  I am remembering why I cried alot in May last year...I was constantly coming and going and got way overwhelmed.  I hope to not do that this year and just try to take it in a little better as well.  We have had our first tee ball game and it was fun to watch the kids enjoy it so much.  Sophia and Alex are on the same team with pretty much all kids they know really well which also means a great group of parents that are all involved in practice and in games.  I wish every sport and every season could be like this but I guess that's the point of getting them involved is to meet new people!  I have a feeling after looking at our upcoming schedule I will be more than ready for vacation come early June...bring on the beach!

Sophie and her friend Ella. My little slugger!

Absolute true personality in this picture...she is totally posing. 
She came out with her uniform on and it was like she was wearing a sequins gown with high heels,
she struted and was totally shaking those hips and shoulders.

Alex backs up his best buddy William to stop the ball on the mound!

Go Astros!  Daddy is so tickled that the games are scheduled so that
he can help this year!  He enjoys being on the field with them
and the other awesome Dads!

The biggest cheerleader there!  She loves watching them
and of course, having Papaw buy her treats at the concession
stand!

You go with your pink bat girl!



Alex getting his stance down and ready to swing!  Homerun Big Boy!

I think I am finally caught up...May is going to include lots more great memories I will be able to share.  After getting these last three posts in one day made me realize how much we are SO Blessed and so lucky to be able to have and do so many great things....hope you're having that feeling today too!

Easter's come and gone

Such a great little family that makes me the happiest Momma!

Alex and his buddy Joey at the Easter Egg Hunt at school.

Alex hunts eggs with his classmates

Sophia's preschool class showing off their finds at her egg hunt

Alex coloring eggs

I believe all of Ava's eggs were colored pink.

Unfortunately my mom is not much of a photographer so this is the best family pic I got from Easter

my beautiful girl hunting at Grammie's

Ava wanted to stop after she found the first pile and just start eating!

Let me back up and post some Easter pictures.  Geez, where did Easter go?  This spring, even though it has been longer with this warm weather, has flown by.  My kiddos seemed to get the true amazing reason for Easter this year and that is as beautiful as they looked all dressed up that morning to go celebrate!  Even with the cool breeze we enjoyed being outside to hunt easter eggs and play in the yard.  We enjoyed the day at my parents house and, as usual, ate way too much!

My own little space.

Stock cabinets, unfinished.

Another stock cabinet that we screwed together to make one long workspace.

Painted black without countertops.

countertops in and most things put away.

The "l" part we just thought up and bought squared off posts to make legs.

I finally have my craft area done!  It's not huge but functional and hopefully will allow me to be productive in my spare time (whatever that is).  My sweet husband helped me brainstorm after I searched many-a-blog to find the perfect setup for me.  We finally decided on stock cabinets that I painted and we added a countertop and a desk.  So far it is working well and I hope to not allow my stuff to spill out in the rest of the area.  We just put new flooring in this area because it is right off our garage and alot of people come in this way but the problem is it is also our catch-all room.  We workout in here, it's a mudroom, my craft space and used to be partially a playroom because let me be honest...every room in this house seems to be a playroom.  We have moved out all toys and now just have it as the mudroom/workout/craft space.  I'm happy and let's face it that's all that matters.  At least that's what my husband told me even though it was with some sarcasm!
