Play Ball

Mike's softball team had their first two games last night. Unfortunately, they lost both. The first game was really close. I think they should have won but the umpire made some bad calls and interpreted a rule wrong. The second game came down to the last inning. I'm sure they'll get better. We had fun watching! Quick update. We are 4-2 now and solidly in third place and a playoff position.

Leap of Faith

First Week of School

My Mom just called and seemed disappointed because I hadn't put any more pictures of SarahBeth's first week of school on my Blog, so......here are pictures from Wednesday, Thursday, and today.

Day 2...Much Better!!!!!

Day 2 of school was much better. SarahBeth didn't get sick, we weren't late, and I didn't cry when I dropped her off! She looked really cute today in her vest.

Do I Have to Go?

SarahBeth's first day at DRJHS was a little shaky. She was very nervous which made her sick to her stomach. Because of that, we left later than planned and got stuck in traffic. The entire way to school, SB kept thinking she was going to throw up but wouldn't let me stop for fear someone would see her and she would be known as "The Girl Who Threw UP On the Way to School!" We arrived at school just as the first bell was ringing and she was pale and looking scared to death. Once she got out of the car, I started crying because I felt so bad for her. Hopefully her day will get better (I don't think it could get worse!)

BACK TO SCHOOL BASH

It's hard to believe, but it's already time for school to start back. SarahBeth starts on Monday and will be in the 8th grade at Desert Ridge Junior High School. The Owens' kids start school on Wednesday. Austin will be in the 4th grade, Ashlyn is in 2nd, and Carter starts Kindergarten! Even Hadley will be going to preschool 2 days a week (lucky Amy). Josh will return to the University of Arizona on the 20th and start classes on the 24th. He will be a SENIOR!

We celebrated with a Barbecue, and swim party. After swimming everyone played BINGO for prizes. Needless to say, things got a little competitive!!!

Good luck everyone! Have a great year!

Happy Birthday Amy!

We celebrated Amy's @? birthday Saturday night as well as "Back to School" . SarahBeth and I made a cupcake arrangement and a crown for Amy to wear! Everyone enjoyed the cupcakes... especially JJ!
Caden seemed a little bored with it all!
