ready for summer

temple

We had stake conference at the temple and just happened to snap some pictures. It was kind of cold and windy even though it looks nice.

baseball

Thankfully (for me), baseball season is over. The boys had great coaches, fun teammates and amazing seasons. It was definitely a learning year for them as well as us.

Austin on the Giants.

Champions!

Parker was on the Padres.

about to make the catch

the bench (Parker is #13 with the red helmet)

A dedicated fan...my poor girls were drug to each and every game. Most times it was cold and they were not too excited about it. But for the most part, they were troopers. Hopefully next year I will be able to actually watch the games and not chase Ainsley everywhere.

spring break

I'm trying to get caught up! For spring break Grandma Dauna and Grandpa Bruce surprised the boys with a trip to DisneyWorld! We had their bags packed and told them the morning they left. They were so excited! This is on the way to grandma and grandpa's house.

They had a such a fun time. Thanks grandma and grandpa! We did get them 3 disposable cameras each and hoped that they would take pictures of each other to document their trip. When the cameras came back we had lots of pictures of animals and scenery but very little people. Bummer! We'll just have to take their word for it.

The day they left we took the girls to Great America in Santa Clara. It was a chilly day but we had a great time.

We purchased season passes, so we will be back!

just because...

easter

the easter bunny wrote letters to each of the kids this year, giving them clues as to where their baskets were hidden.

ainsley found her basket...favorite item...bouncy ball and chocolate bunny

hayden found hers easily

mcCall's took a little longer, but she finally found it in the bathtub

parker, not looking very excited

piece of cake for austin (since he was a hider)

derby

so the pinewood derby was a long time ago. both austin and parker worked really hard on their cars. jeremy helped them equally. it was parker's 1st derby and austin's 3rd. as it turned out parker got 3rd and got a trophy, austin got 6th and got nothing. OUCH! it was a tough night for austin, even though parker was a gracious winner. i think they are still friends.
