Playtime with Sissy

Don't let this picture fool you....trust me they have their share of squabbles, but occasionally they do get along well! :-)

First Baseball Game

Today was Aiden's first t-ball game. He was so excited!

We were thinking they may cancel the game since the

weather man was calling for a wash out, but the rain held

off:) It was VERY cold though and we were thankful for

the coats, blankets and throws we took!! The game was

simply precious! A field full of 3 and 4 year olds was

quite entertaining to say the least! We are thankful that

Aiden has this opportunity and I'm sure he will enjoy

it even more once it warms up!! Mimi and Papa came

to see Aiden play and he was quite excited about that.

After the game, we all went to Dairy Queen for a yummy

treat! Thanks Papa and Mimi for helping to make Aiden's

day so special!

Aiden's T-Ball

We signed Aiden up to play T-ball this Spring.

We knew he would like it but had no idea just how much!!

His first practice was yesterday and he was nothing but

a HUGE smile the entire time! It was precious! He has

4 boys and 4 girls on this team and they are all 3 or 4 years

old. I have never laughed so hard as I did watching these

little ones "play ball"! Aiden doesn't have his uniform yet

but should get it soon. He thought he was pretty cool though

sporting his new glove and his new cleats:) I LOVE seeing

my little guy so happy!

Our Fort

I remember playing in the woods as a child and

making forts out of sticks, rocks, etc. It made for

some very fond memories of my childhood. One day

last week I came home from work and before I even

took off my shoes, Aiden was asking me to go outside

and play with him. I told him to let me change my

clothes and then I would. Well, together we collected

as many sticks and branches as we could. We have

an abundance of trees in the back yard so finding

"supplies" for our fort was not too difficult. We

used the leg of the swingset as a base and and made

a TP fort. Aiden was so excited!!! LOVE making

memories with my kiddos!

My New Centerpiece

I am so tickled with my Goodwill find today! I came across

this centerpiece for $7! It is missing one of the glass votives

but I'm sure I will be able to find one to replace it. I gave it

a good bath and put in some new candles and ta-dah! It is

just perfect for our table. I just love it when I find something

unique for a cheap price! :)
