New York, New York!

I know what some of you might be thinking... when did you go to New York? Well, I was actually supposed to go on a cruise through Europe with my little sis and two sister-in-laws, but things didn't quite work out that way...
To make a really long and painful story short, I flew all the way to Spain and when I was checking in to board the ship they wouldn't let me on! I was too far along in my pregnancy for cruising rules and so I was turned away. Of course you won't find that information easily on their website, but it's a rule none the less. NO CRUISING PAST 22 WEEKS!!! How far along was I... 28! So I booked a flight home the next morning after being on a plane for 15 hours already and being up for over 24 hours. To make matters worse I went to a different hotel than the one originally planned on and my entire family thought I had been abducted or lost somewhere in Spain. Major drama, but I made it home safely and along the way got to spent a couple nights at my brother's house with his two little girls, a day in Time Square, and go to lunch with my cousin Gabby who's getting married in August and I unfortunately can't attend.
It was a complete nightmare, but what do you do? I made the best of it and at least I got to spend a week with the rest of my fam in Utah while the girls were cruising through Europe.
(Sigh)

I really wanted to see a show that day, but unfortunately
there were no matinee's that day. They were the following day.
(Just my luck!)

First Grade Music Program

Landon had a first grade music program at the end of his school year. The kids did a great job and some of the songs were so cute and get sung around our house regularly. Chase has even learned one or two.



I love Landon in this picture.
Doesn't he look so excited and into the program!

T-Ball & Rookie Ball

Many hours a week are spent at the baseball fields lately. Chase is on a T-ball team and Landon on a Rookie coach-pitch team. They play on Tues. and Fri. evenings back to back starting at 5:30 and usually ending around 8:00. They both love it and are so fun to watch.
We all know how T-ball is... everyone getting a turn to bat and when you're in the "outfield" trying to get any ball you can. Chase has done really well this year and always loves the nights he has a game. His team is called the Bobcats.
Landon is quite the little outfielder. His favorite position is first base and is really pretty good at it. His team is called the Kernels and he has quite a few friends from school on his team (including another Landon) which makes it really fun.







Doesn't he look like a "Bad News Bear" in this pic?

Put, Put!

I'm doomed to have a family of boys who all love to play golf! Lately a favorite pass time is heading to the golf course and putting. They boys have a points system and game set up to see who wins and they always have a blast doing it. I just go and enjoy the evening watching them all have fun!
