Andrew's 3rd Birthday

This past weekend we went to OC to celebrate Andrew's 3rd birthday. Jeffrey was very excited and couldn't wait to go.
Jeff & Lexi enjoyed themselves. They had fun playing games and Jeffrey wanted to have his face painted. He came back looking like this...

I know I'm biased, but I thought he made a cute little tiger. I thought he was adorable, and I thought of something. How are we going to get this off? He of course wanted to go home looking like this, and wake up to it. He even told us, "My Tia Kristi said I should keep it till so I can show my friends at Ms. Vickie's!"

Yes, Jeff. We're going to leave your face like this for a whole 2 days!!! And thanks to you, Kris. We finally cleaned it the next morning, and apparently not well. As Aly, who played in Lancaster this weekend, pointed out some yellow/orangish coloring on Jeff's face :p

Their favorite had to be the cupcakes. Alexis loves her desserts. For Aaron's party she saw Aaron's pie, and kept yelling, "CAKE! CAKE! CAKE!" and did not eat her dinner. She had too many bites of cupcake as she talked, sang, yelled and tried to wake up her brother ALL THE WAY HOME! She didn't stop until we hit the 14 and she finally went to sleep. Can you say sugar rush?!?!

We were all happy to be home. We love going to OC, but there is something to be said about being home as a family.

Tita's 84th Birthday

On Valentine's Day weekend, we celebrated Tita's birthday. Since her stroke, we've never taken anything for granted, and take every opportunity to celebrate each other.

Almost all of us were able to make it, but she enjoyed having everyone there for her. I was questionable up till the time, as I was feeling like crap, but we made it.

We weren't sure where to go, and finally decided on Pat & Oscar's. Great food and a great time. Perhaps we'll go back for their Anniversary.

Happy Belated Blogging Birthday to Me

And here I am once again. I looked and can't believe that has been almost a month since my last post. Seriously, where has the time gone?

I did miss my bloggin birthday, and I laugh because my first post was about being a baseball widow, and now here I am coaching...

The biggest thing going on in our lives is the season. We have not been Head Coaches since 2005, and that was when we were engaged and in love. Now we have 2 kids, and time is precious. Each day is the question is asked, "Who has the kids?" It has always been a dream for both of us to be coaching with the kids on the field, but for now it's hard work to keep our family running.

Well, I'm off. It's 9 o'clock and I'm off to bed :p
