We are BACK!!!

Man - now that was a busy couple of days! LOL We got back from KC around 11 Wed night (which was also V's birthday). We had only been home about 20 minutes when D starts yelling that the dogs are gone! :( So - we spent the next 2 hours looking all over town for them... we didn't find them that night - but we did finally find them yesterday at lunch! THANK GOODNESS!!! I was getting SO worried!! But - they are home safe and sound now...

D had a game last night - their second game of the tournament. His team had won the first game while we were gone to KC - they lost last night 18-2! :( The boys were just not in the game... not sure what the problem was... but they play again tonight and this team they have beat both times they played them... hopefully this will help get their spirits back up! This will mean a weekend full of ball games! *sigh* but that is OK - this will be D's last year to get to play, so I guess I had better enjoy it! :)

Vacation!

I can’t wait! Next week we are going to KC from Sunday to Wednesday for FREE! We get to go to World’s of Fun and Ocean’s of Fun, then to a Royal’s game on Monday. Tuesday we go to a Ranch amusement park for horse back riding, hay rides, go cart races, bingo and lots of other fun stuff… and we don’t have to pay for any of it! We also have all of our meals paid for! It will be so nice! ☺ And the boys are so excited! Devan is excited about the Royal’s game and Vance is excited about riding a horse! LOL Oh well – I’m just excited that we get to do all of this and we don’t have to pay for it!

16 - 2!!! We WON!!

What an awesome game! Started off the game with 6 runs in the first inning and 3 up - 3 down. And the game just got better from there. D had a nice little hit between the 3rd baseman and shortstop that ended up being a double when they had an overthrow in to home. The only thing bad about the game was the wicked lightning that started about the middle of the 3rd inning! It was crazy there for a while! We ended up winning by run rule in the 4th inning though! :D
Of course - I got pictures!

Racing...

Well - we didn't do any good racing... didn't even make it to the final race... Oh well - it was still an interesting night... we ended up driving through quite a bit of water to make it home! LOL But that's ok - at least we made it! :) Here are a few pix from the night...

And this was nice... this was Travis loosing his radiator hose... he is number 13 if you can't tell...

Schools OUT!

As of tonight I will be out of school for a month! YAY!! I'm doing pretty good so far in school... straight A's! And this class is going to end no different - I hope! So far I have a 97%... as long as I didn't bomb my final I'm good to go! :) It will be nice to have a break from classes though...

We Won!

What an awesome game! We won 6-5... that was such a back and forth game! They were ahead 0-3... We started to come back and made it 2-3... then they got 2 more runs... it was now 2-5 in the 5th inning... we had 2 GREAT hits - I believe it was Weston and then Trent - both triples! That, combined with a couple of walks and a couple of other nice hits and we were ahead! Then 3 up and 3 down in the 6th inning and WE WON! Man - those boys played just a GREAT game! :)

Now - tomorrow night it is my hubby's turn... he has a figure 8 race tomorrow night... hopefully he finishes in the money!! :)

Weekend Ball Games

Well - we lost... but the boys played really hard! Then - they turned around and played the same team on Saturday night and led the game 5 - 0 until the 4th inning! That inning was not the best one for the boys and the Conway team ended up beating us 5-8... I really thought they had won that one! Well - here is a pic of the Friday night game...

Baseball Season Again!

Well, ball season started for us again last week. This will probably be D's last year to play ball. They normally do not have a team for the older boys. But that is OK... he is wanting to focus on basketball anyway...

The first game was great! We won 10-3 and run ruled them in the 5th inning! YAY! They boys were SO excited! And I think D was happy he decided to pay. He almost didn't because they normally pulled him up to play with the older boys... so he had never played ball with these younger boys... but that is OK - he will just have to step up and be a team leader!

I didn't get any pix this game - but the next game is tomorrow night and I will get some then. :)
