Ty's Baseball

This is Ty's second year in Hotstove baseball and he's doing great. The first half of the game is tee ball and the second half is coach pitch. Ty has a great swing and actually does best with coach pitch.






Kindergarten Fun Day







I know, my posts are a little out of order and still way behind, but atleast I'm doing them..right?


A couple days before school let out, I had the chance to help at Ty's kindergarten fun day. It was so fun to see him in his environment when he's away from me. Why do they have to grow up so fast?

Another Soccer Season is Over

Ty had so much fun on his team this year and loves his trophy!



Last Day of Kindergarten

I can't believe a whole school year has gone by! And I really can't believe that Ty is going to be in all day school next year!

His school did a cute musical performance and Ty was so excited to wear sunglasses and play the air guitar.


With his best buddie, Logan.


With his AWESOME teachers! Loved these ladies!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day? Am I really that far behind?
Keith's dad made reservations for everyone at a golf course for Mother's Day brunch. As always, it was delicious!!











Last Day of Preschool

In the hopes of catching up...

Carter finished his first year of preschool just before we went to Disney. He was so excited to go to Ty's old school. He went with his friend and neighbor, Kaleigh, and did really great. He's already talking about next year.

Disney: Blizzard Beach

Despite the rainy forecast, we decided to stick to the plan and hit the waterpark on this day and I'm SO glad that we did. The rain actually held off until we left, with just enough overcast to not make it miserably hot and have NO crowds. We rode slide after slide--no waiting at all!


The boys loved riding the chair lift to the "big one"


Silly girl. She loved the sitting in the wave pool.





The park had the longest family raft ride in the world. So fun.



The two cutest bums there:

Carter was so happy to find Goofy while everyone else was at the slides. "He's my man."


Ty is a water park machine! He said this was his favorite part of the whole trip.



Latest Obsessions

I'm trying desperately to catch up on my posts (Disney, last days of school, strawberry picking, Paige's birthday...there are so many!!), but I'm having issues with my pictures, so I thought I'd share some of my latest favorites, just because.


I'm actually watching this show right now. I LOVE it!!!!!! By the way, my neighbor's cousin (?), Kayla, is on the show and is doing great!



This bag is the reason I work out every day!!!! You all must try!!



Can't wait for this:

Um..that's it.



Oh, and these: Paige's new shoes, now that she's a walking girl!! Yes, the first ones squeak and have interchangeable bows--I'm in love!

Disney: Hollywood Studios

Out of all the days of rain, this was probably the wettest! This is how we spent 99% of our day at Hollywood Studios:

No, not like this, I just can't get this dumb picture to move anywhere else. See bottom for explaination...


This is how we looked...


It's okay though, because we still had a ton of fun! They had an awesome new Toy Story ride this year that the boys loved and thanks to the rain and lack of crowds, we got to ride a ton!


Apparently, Paige became a little bored of the ride...

The boys also got to meet some of their favorite characters from Playhouse Disney...




and I got to ride the Aerosmith rollercoaster and Tower of Terro over and over again, so all was not lost!
After getting drenched at Hollywood Studios we jetted over to Epcot for a little while. Keith was chosen for a game show contest to see which dad could change the most "babies" diapers and won! So proud!

Disney: Magic Kingdom

So we've been home from Disney for almost a month and I'm just posting now. Oh well, better late than never, right?

As a lot of you know, the weather was not exactly what you hope for at Disney. After the worst Florida drought in decades, there was a tropical storm the whole week we were there. Florida got more rain the week we were there than they had had all year before.

We lucked out with at least one nice day for Magic Kingdom before the storms came and just made the best of the rest. Here's a few from Magic Kingdom, the rest is coming....slowly....






Paige LOVED the characters. She could not get enough of them, squeeling everytime she saw one and leaping out of our arms to give them "loves" on their noses. So sweet!




It wouldn't be a trip to Magic Kingdom without our traditional lunch with the characters at the Crystal Palace. Life-sized stuffed animals? Paige was in heaven! All you can eat buffet? I was in heaven!










Had to share my excellent view:
