How about those Texas Rangers!!!!!

Last month we were about to wrap up our baseball season. We won a little over half of our games and we were content. So we go into tournament week and our first game, single elimination, is against the best team in the Bastrop League! The Marlins, oh we were dreading the loss. Craziest thing happened, we WON!!!! The boys played awesome! So that means that when Mamaw and Grandpa visit they got to see a game which I thought was so cool because Mimi and Papa got to watch the boys play and so did Paul and Stef and the girls. So our next game for the Bastrop championship is against the Astro's....Connor's Astro's.....oh it was awful when they would play against each other in the regular season which they did like 4 times but this was even worse. Especially since everyone knew the Astro's would win. Our boys played awesome again and it was a nail biter, but again, craziest thing, we WON!!!!!!! The Texas Rangers won for the Bastrop division! Woo Hoo!! We did have one final game, the Little League Championship game against the Smithville Astro's who we believe are corn fed 12 years olds and not 8-9 year olds!! Well it was another great game that we LOST but these boys were already winners! On the 7th we have closing ceremonies and we are hoping the boys get a trophy...we will post later!!! On a side note Caleb made the A team Allstars and we have had nightly practices with games beginning Sunday night. If they make it ALL the way the final championship game is the night Uncle Sean comes in and he would get to see at least half of the game! Wouldn't that be crazy????????

It is a great thing when Jordan gets on base!!!!!!

Abby enjoys the games too........that's my girl. She cleans up good!!!!!

It's a Dell!

I am so thankful to be posting right now! Maybe some didn't even notice we were gone! Mac users will be laughing at this post because this would never happen to them! I think that guy from Ed has a commercial about it too. A week ago Monday my computer just died, just like that, it made a funny sound and went black. After sitting in shock for a few minutes I called Dell. This company runs a tight ship and I couldn't be more impressed. We did not buy the extended warranty when we purchased the computer so they could not send a technician for free but what they will do is let you send it to them in a box they pay for and ship. The whole process including sending me a new powercord to test first, took 7 days and did not cost me a dime! It was the motherboard and they did whatever it is they do to replace it. I could not believe the service that comes just for owning a Dell! We have had the computer for almost 3 years and have not put a dime into it beyond the actual purc...

Doing Great!

Well we made it through our first 1/2 week with no major catastrophes! Just a lot of learning going on and not nearly enough mommy to go around! We are doing lots of review which is a plus for me because it made it a little less obvious that I am winging it in many areas! I am great with doing...abc, 123 in this order check check check...but the style and curriculum and rigor of what we use call for much more! So this weekend I did a little more leg work to have more available. Specifically the printables for the kids penmanship using Abby's Spell to Write and Read as a guide and scripture for the boys. I also dug a lot deeper and was able to tie the World History book I am using in with the US History book and the next hurdle is to find the appropriate Literature for each child corresponding to whatever we are studying. The internet is amazing!!! I had already mapped out the math for the year which is very easy when the lessons are designed to be taught 1 per day. Logic is als...

It's a 410!

Caleb finally got to go out and shoot his 410 shotgun. Yes, HIS 410 shotgun that he saved up for! It is a scary thing for a mommy but daddy handles all of our gun issues. I was just getting comfortable with the BB guns. Maybe I should do a weapon rundown. 1 shotgun, 2 BB guns, 1 Bow & arrow, arrows, 6 slingshots, 2 giant Nerf super shooter thingys, 3 nerf guns......who would have thought this would happen in my house? Anyways, Caleb had such a great time shooting clay targets. He and daddy went with Chip out to a friends 150 acre ranch and his 12 year old son hopped in the truck and drove them to this spot.....yes I said 12 years old.
