Catch up

Well there is a lot that has since the last post....we had a picnic, got pictures of the boys' baseball practice and games, a new piano that was made in 1913 and EXTREMELY heavy!!! it took four guys to move it and that was pushing it!!!! Will is here with us and the kids have changed greatly so it is really nice. Roy had a school play and is now ready for K which he is really excited about. Their baseball has ended and both boys got trophy's and had party's for the end of the season. We went to OK at the end of May and enjoyed a weird visit. Austin's last day of school is today and he will be going to camp this summer with other children of deployed parents. So here is the pictures.

Randomness

Okay so here is the new hair color....it is blood red or that is what I was told....I have gotten a lot more stares from it than from the purple!!!:) I think that it is kinda funny!!! but I did find out that it turns my white shirts pink when it is wet!! it is quite funny!!:)









Here are the first buds on the trees....they are almost fully bloomed now...so that is great!!! and here are some pics of the new garden that is extremely small it only has lettuce, spinach and carrots in it so far....since we are suppose to be moving soon I didn't see the need to make it a huge patch and it is growing!!!! yea me!!!!:) I will have to put new pics up pretty soon cause you can see the sprouts....so as soon as I get a harvest I can actually say my black thumb has turned green!!!!:) but I will knock on wood to make sure that is still a possibility!!!:) hehe!!:)

So the boys started tee ball and coach pitch last week and they are super excited about it....they love being able to hit the ball and run around the bases....I have pics but they are on the cell phone so I will have to transfer them over...Courtney is upset that she can't play but she does really good at cheering them on....it is really cute!!:) Other than that every thing is going okay well as well as can be expected!!:)

The last good picture of my flowers....they are starting to die now and it sucks cause they smell so good and I love having that smell right out side the door....it is great and is going to be greatly missed....I will have to put some others out that smell as well!!:)

St.Paddy's Day and Bday

So here is a pic that Austin took on my birthday....We had fun we went to Wilmington and ate at Panera Bread....It was really nice and the kids were great so we all had fun...

On the 14th we went to Emerald Ilse to celebrate St. Paddy's day and the kids rode on a train and played on a fire truck and did the strong hammer game and got two inflated baseball bats!! They had so much fun!!! Though it was kinda chilly it still was fun

Austin played his last baseball game on the 7th and they won all their games but their last one which they tied but he took pictures with his new trophy and his old one....He is so proud and happy!

And here is a picture of the flowers.....they are growing and smell SOOOOO good!!! as soon as you walk out the door you can smell them and they smell all into the back yard it is great! Well we started baseball practice today and Roy really enjoyed himself....Austin will start on tuesday so they are both excited!!!:) I will post pics of that later on....

Catching up

So there is a lot to catch up on....Austin is doing somewhat better and now Roy is taking up the slack! Courtney is being herself! Saturday was Austin's last basketball game and we were sitting next to a baby and he kept touching Courtney and she was really upset so I asked her why she was so mad and she said she didn't want the baby touching her or talking to her! I asked her what she was going to do with her baby (because she wants to have a baby now and feed it real baby food and change it's diapers!) and she told me that her baby wasn't going to talk or move!! How funny is that!!:)

Here they all are digging for bones with the dog.....at least they weren't to messy....

My flowers are growing and getting bigger so I am doing with the whole growing stuff!!:)

We ate sloppy joes and they are aptley named!!!:) Here is the boys with their new hair cuts as well!!! Austin decided he wanted to have certain areas shorter so he took the scissors and took a few chunks out!!! They are doing well and growing like weeds! The boys are signed up for baseball and tee ball so they are really excited and can't wait to start!!! There is not much else going on that I can think of at the moment but if I can think of anything else I will put it down!:)

My flowers

Okay so here is the proof that I do not have a black thumb anymore and I can grow house plants and flowers!!!:) There are ten or twelve I think...not sure right now....oh the flowers are hyacinths....they smell sooooo good and I will be able to cut them for the table as well!!:) I am looking forward to that!!!

There is also some flowers popping up that were planted before hand....I think that they are tulips or a type of lilly...not sure but I saw a similar shape in some flowers at lowe's and they said it was a lilly not sure what kind but I can't wait to see if they bloom....I hope that they are a good match with the hyacinths....guess we will see in a few weeks!!!

Hair cut

Well here is some new pics of my hair....I hope that they are better than the other ones....Chris requested some better taken ones so I hope they are better:)

So I got my hair trimmed and added some more purple....it is a regular purple and not the vivid royal purple that was almost blue....This is a picture that Austin took....

here is a picture that Courtney took with some help!!:)

This is Roy's picture....he wanted to get the sink with the top of my head cause it is funny!!! He is so goofy....I guess I should have known that he was going to do something silly cause he was laughing the entire time he was pointing the camera....

A very sad attempt of me taking a picture of all of us!!!! at least we can see who is who!!:) well I put the pictures up for you Christopher so now you have to send some to us as well!!:)

The newest member

Her name is Sierra Rosey George....She is part Lab and Huskie....I think something else but they didn't know for sure!!!! We picked her up at the pound on Sat!! She is really good with the kids and very protective over them as well!!

She has had pups but she wasn't brought in with them...She is really skinny and has a check up on monday!! She has already claimed the house and a blanket and she does really well....she follows me around and she really looks appreciative like she knew that we saved her from a bad place!! she is extremely smart and has already learned to avoid the bathtub!! she doesn't like baths but she will stand there and take it and then dry off in your clean just made with fresh sheets bed!!!! how lovely is that!!!!

Roy got hurt and she ran over to him and licked him all over to make sure he was okay....so she has her maternal instincts as well!!:) she even let Courtney hug all over her and give her kisses!! So she is a good fit into the family!!! oh and she even snores like Chris!!! She is a great fit into this family and we love having her even though she has just been here a day!!!
