Cody Baseball
Cody had his first t-ball game last night. He was soooo cute. 


Ryan is the coach for Cody's team. When asked how it went afterward, he said, "Great! We won!" Which is pretty funny when you consider that they don't take score and there are no outs.

Brandon and his May artwork.
It was such a nice day the other day that we decided to have a picnic on the trampoline. The boys though tit was the greatest thing ever.
Brandon made a haul on his birthday. He sure has awesome friends. He LOVES every one if his gifts.
Here is the best part. This video of Cody playing baseball is the best.

Father Son Camp & Bday Party
The boys went on the Father-Son campout on Friday night. It looks like they had a great time. At least by Cody's dirty face, he had a great time.
Brandon had his birthday party yesterday. He wanted a Handy Manny theme, which is funny. I thought he had outgrown that kind of stuff. But he insisted. So we had to open "Handy Manny's Garage."

The kids built and painted tool boxes.


Then they played soccer while the tool boxes dried.
If you are wondering why he has black candles or why there are black balloons everywhere, it isn't because he is turning 30. It is because black is his favorite color.

Happy Birthday Brandon
Oh yeah, and I got breakfast in bed on Mother's day. It was perfect. Look what a nice job Ryan did slicing everything. The kids went to town on it with me, which was good because it was a TON of food, but bad because it left crumbs all over the bed.
Brandon turned 6 on Wednesday. He was so cute and so excited about his balloon bouquet with Buzz on the bottom.
After he got ready for school, he spent the next 30 minutes sending Buzz to "fall with style" over the stairwell.
Brandon really wanted to go to the zoo. So after a Pizza Hut lunch, we went to the zoo. As he was climbing over this bridge, he shouted, "Mom! I am having such a great time!" Every time he said, "Mom, take a picture," I obliged. Luckily for you, I didn't post all the billion pictures I took of him at the zoo.





Then Brandon got the mail and had two letters and a present in the mail box.
"Mom, how did they know I really, really wanted this!?!"
Then cupcakes with Isaac and Afton.

Then more presents. Oh he was so excited.
The best part about getting new toys is that the TV stays off without complaint for a few days.
Then I started working on the cake for Brandon's party. I don't think I have ever used so many colors of frosting at one time. But I think they turned out pretty cute. They are the tools from "Handy Manny".

Principal's Pride
The new couch:
We had this beautiful bird just hanging out in our yard the other day. Look at that pretty blue (the picture doesn't do it justice, but I was trying not to scare it away).
We have had a crazy, windy, week last week. Kathleen thought it was super fun to let it blow into her face on the trampoline.
Kathleen learned a new form of art that she thought was particularly fun- tracing at the window.
Cody's best buds came over the other day and they all three snuggled up on the couch together. It was so cute.
Then... what you have all been waiting for...I had been gone one evening and when I came home, I saw this:


That's right. I turned 30 yesterday. And there were streamers EVERYWHERE! I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and...you guessed it, I got tangled up and trapped in streamers. Fun times.



Brandon got nominated for the "Principal's Pride Award" at his school. He was so cute.
