Sean's Tourney

Sean had a tourney the weekend of the 13th. They took first place after 2 very tense games. They lost 1 on saturday and then swept everyone the last 2 games of that day. They won the first game sunday morning easily and then put us thru the wringer the next 2 games. Winning them both by 1 and 1 of them in tie breaker. Then in the game for first place completely killed them. It was great, makes spending 2 days at the park worth while.

They ever faithful crew. The Stud hitting :)

The women behind the awesome men, or should I say the awesome women that support the men! Tab, Wendy and Molly. The 3 Musketeers!

The big win!!!

Braydin's visit

Just a couple cute pictures from Braydin's sleep over on friday. He seemed to have tons of fun. I am pretty sure we wore him out, cause he asked to go sleep on Levi's bed on Saturday night, before his Mom and Dad got home to pick him up :-) Those older cousins are hard to keep up with. He got to watch movies with Levi, sleep over in his room, play video games with Danielle and Levi, play Levi's DS on his very own and play slip and slide with them. And if you ask him he beat the big kids a couple times on the slip and slide. We took him to La Fuente for dinner and he was so funny eating the salsa. He told us he really liked the cabbage (salsa) so he is grabbing chip after chip eating salsa when the heat finally hit him and I noticed he was guzzling his drink. He decided that was a little too hot for his mouth.

My turn all by myself!

Ok let me show you how real men do it.

2 "white" boys getting some sun and warming up.

All worn out!!

Water Fun

On Saturday we had a nice warm day and we had Braydin over for the day. The kids wanted to play in the water, so they got creative and made a homemade slip and slide. Levi found a tarp and drug it out and hooked everything up. They were pretty funny, running sliding and enjoying the water.

Ready, set, slide. Levi won.

Let me show you how to do it Levi.

Our nesting family

This cute little bird made herself a house outside of our front door. It was fun to watch her and the babies grow. And every once in a while get dive bombed cause we got to close. Its amazing how fast they grow. The first pictures were taken on 5-18 and the last ones are 6-13. The nest is all empty now and it is kind of sad. Check out the pictures of our feathered family.

They are almost the cutest as eggs :) You will see what i mean.

Little piles of skin and feathers.

Not real cute yet.

Getting much cuter. Looking more like Mommy.

Danielle's new hair cut

Danielle got her hair cut last weekend. I think it is absolutley adorable. It makes her look more grown up. She was so upset about getting her hair all cut off, but now loves it so much she wants it shorter.

After

The back is so cute all she has to do is put a little gel in it and go.

Levi's Birthday Party

We had a little birthday cake for Levi on June 7 (June 8th is his real birthday). I just still can't believe that he is 14. It just sounds so weird to me. I took him to the Dr the other day and he is 5'4" and weighs 97lbs. Still hasn't quite caught up with the amount of food he eats :-) Boy will we be in trouble when he does. There is a bonus to being a teenager you get money for your birthday and make out like a rich man.

There is a funny story to the above picture. We couldn't find Bryce anywhere downstairs and this is where we found him. Well the kids were playing outside and apparently Bryce wasn't doing what Danielle wanted him to do, so she put him in time out. After explaining to Danielle she wasn't a parent, we all got a good laugh out of it.

Levi's Birthday Gift

Yesterday for Levi's birthday gift we went to Spokane. He wanted to play Lazar Tag, so we took him to Wonderland USA. It is a fun place with all kinds of stuff, like arcade games, lazar tag, go karts, mini golf and bumper boats. It was a lot of fun! He got to take a friend with him, so Dakota joined us. We spent about 5 hours playing games and having all kinds of fun. Oh yeah 5 hole-in-ones for Mom in mini golf! I am so awesome :) It was suppose to rain, but thankfully the weather cooperated and everything was perfect for him. I took the memory card out of the camera to load some pictures on the computer, luckily the camera holds some pictures internally, so I was still able to get a couple pictures of them having fun. I have done that before, but usually catch it before we get out of the house. What a goof ball I am.

They spent 5 dollars on this game trying to beat it.

The boys in the lead.Yes that is Mom ahead of Dad, not him lapping me :)

Soaked after Bumper Boats. I think Danielle got the brunt of it.

Levi's 1st pitching in Babe Ruth

During Monday's game Levi got his first chance pitching in Babe Ruth. He did really well! The pitching mound is an extra 15 feet from home plate then he is use to, but he adjusted really well. He only faced 4 batters (only got to pitch 1 inning, but its better then none) and one of them he struck out, one of them was a pop up to the in-field and he was the one that caught it. I was so happy to see him adjust to the 15 feet length difference. He was a really good pitcher in Little League, especially since most boys aren't used to facing a left hand pitcher, but this is more like the big league's.
