April

Wow - March 23rd was my last post. Really??? that's like over a month ago.
Here is my April 09 in reverse order of occurance.

My baby boy turned 9 years old.

Friends are Luke, Matt (birthday boy), Blake, Adrian, Luke (brother - not sure if he was counted as a frined or just "the brother" . . that day) and Beau standing. Had a friends bithday party on Sunday the 19th. They played baseball in the backyard until 2:30 and then they all went to baseball practice . . . .boys!!!

Saturday we ran the Tacoma St. Patty's Day 5K Fun Run, Dad placed 3rd in his age group and I placed 2nd in mine. It does pay to be 40!!! Mom and Luke walked it under 50 minutes. Whoop Whoop!!

Note sure if I even got Matt in this picture.

There he is - running down the court. This was his last game. He sank a half court buzzer beater at the end of the game. He said it was the best feeling in his life!! Pretty cute!!

Off to Lacrosse now - Mark coaching, of course, matt is player in the red with #11 on the sleeve. This was a scrimmage game.

Lucs is in the middle of the picture. Red short, no pants, short socks.

We got about 1 1/2 inches of snow last week. It was beautiful coming down. Some of it has not melted yet, we've had cold temp lately.

I think Boone liked the snow

Coming down

Shopping in Bellevue

Here is cousin Marc and his fiance Andrea in Walla Walla Wine tasting during Thanksgiving. On Sunday I meet up with Auntie MJ, Nikki, Emery & Sawyer on to go shopping for the "mother of the groom" dress. She found one and it's perfect. It was sure fun shopping with girls. We had a fun day and MJ looked fabulious.

Emery trying on a dress. She loved twirling in them.

Sawyer is the best baby girl in the world. She does not cry. Well, her mom and dad don't agree with me, but I've never seen her really cry very hard. She's so cute.

Nikki's friend forever, Rachel, met us for coffee in the morning. Rachel has a almost 2 year old little boy and is 21 weeks pregnant and was just diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. Keep her in your prayers.

Ok - This is our friend Steve. Steve is a pilot for UPS (What can brown do for you? you know the saying - he says "what can you do that's brown"?hahaha). We've know them for 5 years or so now and I have never ever seen him in his work attire. Keep in mind since we have never seen him in his work attire and his schedule will be on 2 weeks off 2 weeks, on 4 days off 6 says . . .so on and so forth. . . .(another example, this is his first day of going back to work for 96 days straight) we all tease him that he don't really have a job. So when he dropped Kari (his daughter who is friends with Lucas) off the other morning he was dressed and headed to work so I just had to take a picture. I have proof now!!

Monday

First time I have ever bought cookies that were pre-mixed and molded. All I had to do was bake them. What a cheater I am.

It's snowing at our house right now (monday afternoon about 3:30)

It's almost baseball season. Matt had try-outs on Saturday.

Super Bowl

UUURRRRGGGGGG Pit! I don't like that team. I thought Zona was going to pull out with a W. Dang it! I'm going to miss football. Pro bowl next weekend and then it's over for year.

Been Awhile

Jeff and Becki came out to pick up a mattress. We had a cup of coffee and a nice visit.

Not happy: These 3 pictures should be in reverse order.

Get out of my face

I said get out of my face.

Woke up to this on Sunday morning. Global Warming -hahahaha!!
