4th Annual Hager Crawfish Boil

Our next door neighbors, the Hager's had their 4th Annual Crawfish Boil on Saturday May 23, 2009. I have never participated in a crawfish boil and I have to say it was very fun! There were tons of people, tons of crawfish, and tons of fun had by all. It was really a great day! The kids enjoyed the pool, the bouncehouse, and the inflatable waterslide, and the adults enjoyed the friends, food, and drink! It started around 3 and lasted pretty much until the wee hours of the morning - I didn't make it that long but some did! ;-)

Bradley's UnBirthday Birthday Party

I thought this was so thoughtful - this year since several kids birthday's fall during the summer, Bradley's preschool class teacher assigned each child an "unbirthday" birthday! Bradley's was May 11, 2009 and I took off work to take the kids cookies and Capri Suns. Since Bradley doesn't like cupcakes he chose the cookies. He wanted Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter but he settled for just the Chocolate Chip since I didn't want to be responsible for some poor child going into anaphylactic shock. Here are a few pictures of the event. He got to wear a crown and be the line leader and have all the perks of it being his Birthday!

Finally a Post!

Ok I know it has been about 6 weeks since I posted but I just got around to uploading some pics. We have been busy with baseball, TBall, and just the everyday routine that goes along with work and kids! We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend - it was fun filled at home with lots of good food, good friends, and good fun! But before I get to those pictures or that post I will start with Easter Morning! Like I said in the previous post "The Easter Bunny" left the boys a scavenger hunt to find their Easter baskets! Welsy was a little cranky that morning but when he got to his basket he perked right up!

Easter Pictures

Mom and Wendy brought the kids up last week to take their pictures in the tulips here at the Capital. I wanted to do it as soon as possible since this crazy weather around here I was afraid the tulips wouldn't last for long. And as usual Wendy took 365 picutres so to narrow it down is difficult. Oh and even though she took that many there really wasn't one that stood out as being GREAT of the two of them together! That has to be the hardest task E V E R ! ! ! Anyway, the kids enjoyed Easter we were bad this year and didn't make it to church. We don't set alarms on weekends because the kids are usually our alarms and both decided to sleep til after 9 on Easter Sunday. It was VERY NICE but we didn't have time to get ready and make it to Easter Service. The Easter Bunny had a "scavenger hunt" for the boys to find their Easter Baskets and they really enjoyed that. We had dinner at Nicki and Nick's, it was Easter/Lori's Birthday Dinner! Pork Kabobs, salad and corn on the cob. It was really delish! Here are a "few" of the pictures Wendy took at the Capital.

T-Ball

Bradley started T-ball a couple of weeks ago. He is loving it! He is doing pretty good too! Here are a few pictures of practice. They haven't played a game yet (I think it will be interesting to see) but they have had several practices. Their first game is April 4th and they are supposed to have a big parade to kick things off so that will be fun. I will post pictures of that when it happens.

Bradley had Kindergarten registration yesterday so I took the day off and we had a Bradley/Mommy day. We just did some running around. He was in need of a hair cut so since our usual place was closed we went to WalMart - She chopped him very very very short. I like the cut from a distance but it is really a bad job - plus it is very short and we will have to get his hair cut like every 2 or 3 weeks since his double crown makes it stick up in the back when it is too short. But it is a cute summer cut but it makes him look so much older.

Wesley Wendy Day

While Bradley and I were at the Harlem Globetrotters, Wendy watched Wesley until Jeremy got done with Baseball practice. She just sent me an album of 85 pictures that she took of him in, let's see he was there maybe 3 hours. ;-) They all turned out really cute, Wendy and Jim took him for a walk around the lake and they stopped at the playground for him to play. He is getting so big. I can't believe he is almost 2. Anyway, here are some of the pictures - Enjoy!

Wendy said he LOVED playing with the little pebbles they have on the ground.
