RUN HEATHER, RUN !!!

Well we had our first softball game last night and we won amazingly. We were really freaked out when we watched the other team walk up before the game..But we won 11-7, yea for us. We have actually been moved up to league 6 and there are 8 so we are a little worried about what type of teams we are going to be playing against. I have posted a schedule on here if anyone wants to come out and watch...Thanks mom and dad for watching the kiddos for us, hope they were not too much trouble...

Paul made a awesome slide at second..I struck out twice and then to mine and the rest of the team hit a ball....The funny thing was I was so shocked that I hit the darn thing that I forgot to run right away...And of course my sideline friends, and you know who you are, were yelling, run heather, run heather. They thought they were watching one of our tball games when the little guys hit the ball and just stand there...I was just in shock that I hit the ball guess running was the last thing on my mind..so yep I did not make it to first base...but did get the team to rolling..

But the best thing was WE WON !!! The next game is Friday the 28th, gonna miss that one due to I will be in IN on trip for work..

And Bonz, Kristen and John Ray..The bat spent the night in the truck not the bed next to Paul, so I did get to sleep in the bed after all. And I am on a mission to get a bag to carry it and all our other stuff in, got to protect that thing... ;)

Great Granma and Aunt Marilyn fought the traffic and parking to come out to watch Coach Daddy and Andrew play last night.. 

On our way to our first Tball game last night.. 

Could tell Sister was not feeling well at all this weekend but by gosh she was not letting go of that sparkly blue egg.. 

Hunting eggs at Granma Moffat's 

Daddy's new hunting buddy, when brother has a gun playing then sister has to have one too.. 

Easter with Granpa Blankinship, this is how Madison spent Easter she was sick with sinus infection and teething so she did not hunt easter eggs..Hannah wanted her to wake up. 

Caged !! This is where she loves to be at practice on the field with the team and her daddy... 

Madison had to model brother's bunny hat that day and she even found some eggs which several little girls and on little boy tried to take from her and she told them what she thought about that.. :) 

Andrew on his prek Easter egg hunt. They had 1600 eggs to find between three classes of prek...talk about brave teachers... 

Big brother always watching over her he was helping her up after one of the kids knocked her down... 

Maddie at tball practice always on the go.. 

Playing catch at our first tball practice.. 

My mom made us girls scarves for Christmas last year and Andrew had to have his and Maddie had to have hers. Here she is modeling Andrew's, she loves these things.. 

We read 4 books together every night and then he reads one by himself and this is usually how I find him when I go back in to check on him...Arn't they the sweetest thing when they are sleeping??? 

TBALL MONKEYS

Well we had our first tball game last night and it was GREAT...If you want to watch some real fun and have lots of laughs you need to try to come and see the little guys and girls. They do not really keep score so not sure who won but they had a blast and so did the coaches. Paul has decided after all the fun last night that he will coach again...

I have pictures that I will try to put on the site tonight...

Madison is doing better she had a sinus infection over Easter and also cut a bunch of teeth so she ran fever from Wednesday through Monday of about 104-105 she was a pretty sick little girl..She is drinking cows milk, and she loves it and we love it b/c no more buying formula. I was even told yesterday after her nap that they sit her on the potty and she went potty for them..Mommy is not ready for her to be so grown up. Heck even found her in the 2 year old room again when I picked her up.

Andrew is doing great...He is loving Tball..He is going to be all legs all his jeans come up to his ankles like over night..He is in his last few weeks of Prek and tells everyone he sees that he is going to be 5 and in Kindegarten soon.

Paul is staying busy with work and coaching and playing softball...I am staying busy at work and the rest of the juggling of stuff. I leave on the 26th for IN for a trade show and will be back on the 30th. Mom is going to help Paul out with the kiddos. Kinda nervous about flying but hey will be an experience. Then at the end of June Paul will be going with me to MA for another trade show we are going to make a get away trip out of that one, we hope.

We had a great Easter even with the sick kiddo..We had lunch and egg hunt on Saturday with Granma and Granpa Blankinship. Then on Sunday we had lunch and egg hunt with Granma and Granpa Moffat. We got to see Uncle Jake the "great wielder" and Uncle Jon, Aunt Randi, Kaitlyn. Randi sees the Dr today Mom and I are waiting anxiously to hear from either one of them to see how far along she is and what the doctor had to say..

Not much more to say except in a another week or so we have 20 some head of goats that will start kidding and we could be overran by goats soon. Granma and Granpa Blankinship have 48 kids on the ground right now and few more left to kid...wow that ole saying about rabbits well it is that way for goats as well...

Madison turns one not to long from now and we are going to have her party on the 7th of May at our house. You all are invited for cake and ice cream and family fun...Thinking right now will be around 3 or so...Can't believe that my baby is 1 already..

Will try like heck to get pics on here tonight...
