Baseball Practice

The other night James had his first baseball practice. We got there alittle early and James said, "Mom, is it ok to practice running the bases?"

Spring Break

Today was the first day of James' spring break. No better way to spend up than up north with the hoard. This morning we got up and headed out. We were about 10 mintues away from Amy's when I get a call from the kids wondering when we will be there. (I gotta say I love that the kids are always so excited when we come up)

When we finally got there it was non-stop fun and excitment. We had a fab lunch of lunchables. Followed by coloring easter eggs, and topped off with a little easter egg hunt in the front yard. It was so much fun. One of the best ways I think we could spend our spring break.

James' Look-a-Like???

James came home from school one day and told me he had made a bunny at school. "I made it look just like me", he says. I didn't really know how James could make a bunny look like himself, but I nodded and smiled. Wednesday when I pick him up this is what he showed me. A bunny with stitches and a big bump on his forehead.

Happy Birthday, Tim

For those of you that know Brad, you know that the guy can't resist a opportunity to have a party. One of Brad's employees, Tim has become a good friend. Brad has been inviting him over to dinners, Wii playing, and Jack Bauer. Last night he came over and we had a little party. It was fun and the boys love when Tim comes over. Nothing better than white cake and Jack Bauer.

St. George

I wish I could say that I have been in St. George for the past 4 weeks to explain my blogging absence, but no. There is nothing that has happened even remotely excited to share. We just returned from the land og the sun last night. It was amazing. I really can't believe what difference it makes to wake up and have it feel warm outside. It is a beautiful thing.

We went down for a few reasons.....one, I am getting alittle worried that my days to get away as a family are coming to a halt with Brad starting school. It was also Brad's parents anniversary and his family was down on an adult trip. Brad was able to met up with his family for some of the activities. It was a good weekend and I hate to leave the warm weather.

Brad in his element......

Josh took a little toy book of James' to look through. He felt he needed to hide out so James wouldn't get mad.

I hate to admit that this guy here was out best friend over the weekend. I am sure I was there at least once a day.

Nothing like a battle on vacation.

Always the highlight....swimming. James is swimming really good these days and doen't wear his life jacket.

Nothing better than a dip in the water.

Flips into the pool.

It was a great weekend. I really think St. George is my home away from home.

Until another 4 weeks...........

Happy Birthday Uncle Jake

Friday was Jake's birthday and he was in town and therefore we all needed to gather to celebrate. We had a birthday breakfast with the group before Jake started his drive back to St. Louis. It is always good to get together. We had an amazing breakfast of waffles and than we all said something nice about Jake. One of the highlights of the morning was meeting Hillary. Nicest girl. She didn't seemed to shaken up the Jensen experience. That is the true test. Fun to be together.

Cousins

Early Wednesday morning I received a call from Aiden asking if he can come to my house to play. OK!!! I don't have a lot of pictures, but the kids had lots of fun. Thanks for coming down and entertaining us for awhile.
