Kenny Chesney

Last week, Thomas had his last major league baseball game in Spring Hill, Closing Ceremonies, and the end of the year party for the team (complete with pizza and awards).



Now the Santa Fe summer baseball league has started up and guess who is the sponsor of our team?





THE KENNY CHESNEY BAND!!!

The dad of one of the boys on our team plays in Kenny Chesney's band, so they are sponsoring our team. The boys were very excited!

Last Friday night was our 2nd game, and Thomas hit a home run and won the game (7-6)!

After 25 years, IT'S OVER!

What a sad day for our family this past Saturday!






This was Brian's baby back in the 80's.






This was in the 90's.


This was last Saturday. (Even the dog was sad!)




We all said our "goodbyes" and shed a tear or two.




















Take good care of it, PC!

Little bit of everything

HELLO SUMMER TIME! Thank you Cheryl and Jerry. We are enjoying the pool soooo much!








HEY, HEY, HAY........





Sweet Kitties! (Well not so for the one in the back who, along with his dog friend, wiped out a batch of baby bunnies the other morning! Bad, Bad, kitty!)



Thomas on third base, after he hit a triple, in his SH game the other night.



Look! We have blueberries!





"Synchronized Swimming", No - "Synchronized Basketball". Is there such a thing?






Brian oldest ride! (Will he ever just let it go?) He has had it FOREVER!







Brian's newest ride. This was his Daddy's truck.

The past two weeks...

Our big buddy came back to visit. Why Zaida is licking her lips, I don't know. That turtle could probably eat her!


This is what happens when you are going to town and you pass a big mower/bush hog on the side of the highway and it just happens to throw something your way...


This is from the inside, looking out.


This is Thomas at his SF Baseball end of the year party.
Preschool is over for me this year. Thank you for the memories, all of my little friends!
I did get a wonderful surprise the last week of preschool - I got to meet the very famous Melissa from Stretch Marks! I have been a big fan of her blog for some time now and it was so nice to finally meet her. She is amazing!
I also got to meet Jaime Jamgochian, a Christian singer and song writer. She is very good friends with one of my preschool moms. I received her CD as a gift, and I love it! She has a very beautiful voice.

School is now over for the boys this year also, except for picking up report cards. The boys have both done great! Taylor made the basketball team again for next year, and I can not wait for the games to begin! Thomas is going to try out again in the Fall, and hopefully he will make it this time.
We have 3 more weeks of baseball, and basketball camps are about to start up. Taylor has several in June (one at Belmont College) with the SF team. Thomas has one in July at SF.



This is a little friend who came to visit last night, probably out of our field that was being raked for hay.

Last Saturday's Visitor

Last Saturday when Thomas and I got back from his basketball game, we had a visitor. He has visited us once before, in May of last year.







Brian says that he is a snapping turtle, but he seems very friendly!



I guess Zaida thinks we have a new pet, and she is probably wondering why we did not consult with her first.



















He visited with us for several hours and then headed back down to the pond.

Pictures from the past few weeks.

Taylor playing AAU basketball for East Hickman. He is number 13 (black/gray shirts).



Jump ball.

Taylor took this picture with his new camera when he went walking on Papa Jack's land. This is on a hill overlooking Watervalley.




Thomas playing 3rd base for the major league Spring Hill baseball Rotary Team.



Another walk down to the creek with Thomas. This is the view of our house from the creek. Our house is on the right. The house on the left is my Aunt and Uncle's house (that is where my Grandparent's house used to sit). When I was little, my cousin's and I would walk down to this creek to play.





Thomas, on his bike, with Zaida right behind him going back up to the house.







Taylor (the big guy, with "Coach" on his back) and his little team in Santa Fe that he is helping to coach.





Thomas (number 1 - black shirt) playing in the Santa Fe Youth Basketball League.






Taylor (tall one on the left) and his team.







Thomas (number 1 - black shirt) scores! His team won this game, 32 - 16. Thomas scored 10 points in this game!

Easter Sunday


Me with my boys, Thomas (age 12) and Taylor (age 14, he will turn 15 this weekend). And I have on heels, people!




I had to threaten this one to not cross his eyes!



Jessica and Thomas hunting eggs.

Notice Thomas' Target Easter basket! I did not get a picture of Amanda. She was off riding motorbikes with the boyfriend.
