Tball Practice...

Today was Jack's last practice before his first game Tuesday night... It is very fun to watch Jack play.. It is very much like you might imagine Jack dancing in the outfield or talking to everyone...as balls go wizzing past him. However, when he is paying attention he can catch and throw pretty good...Now batting is a different story..He Rocks!!! The best part is when he runs around the bases still holding the bat...so cute.

All the kids running after the ball

Score!

One of the perks of being a teacher is that you get to take your kids to school with you and hand pick their teachers. Next year Jack will be in whole day kindergarten at my school. This year there are two whole day kinder classes at my school and both teachers are amazing. I don't know which one he will be in yet. One is track 3 and one is track 5. It all depends on what track I get put on. I am going back in the classroom next year. I have found that I love my position, but hate working with all the teachers. I just want to go back into the classroom and hide next year. I miss having my own class...but I am dreading report cards and grading papers again..My mom and RJ are probably not really excited about this as they usually get put to work grading papers. I have asked to teach either Kinder,1st, or 4th grade next year..I will know in the next couple of weeks what my position will be next year. At any rate I am so thrilled that my little munchkin will be at my school. RJ is going to volunteer in his classroom once a week, I can't wait. He may get put to work in mine too. Below is a picture that I took of Jack just after he fell asleep..notice the shirt he is wearing...he picked it out...Do you think he is excited too? Go Steele Stallions!

Playroom From The Black Lagoon....


I am not kidding.....Jack's playroom is out of control right now....It was a little messy last weekend but not bad..then Jack and I got sick....Well, it just kept getting worse...I just did not have the energy this week to tidy up the room at the end of each day....So what you see in the picture above is what I have to work on today.....I actually feel like crying right now because I don't even know where to start...although a giant garbage bag with a dumpster out back sound good right about now....RJ will help if I ask but... when he cleans up he throws all the toys into buckets and doesn't pay attention to were they are supposed to go...you know I have a system....star wars toys here, legos here,(don't get me started on the lego mess),dress up clothes go here, etc....Well you might say "Why doesn't Jack clean up it is his mess?" Oh, believe it or not he has the same problem as his father....so after 2 minutes of Jack cleaning up...I freak out and take over...So after I write this blog to you all I will be spending the next few hours cleaning up and organizing the Playroom From The Black Lagoon......

My Boys...

I just wanted to say how much I love my boys.....They are outback as I write this blog..they are cleaning up the backyard so we can enjoy it now that the weather is soooo nice...The yard is covered in leaves,leaves and more leaves....So RJ and Jack are hauling them all away...The winter was so yucky and windy that we just haven't been out back in two months so you can imagine what it looks like..here are some pics of my boys cleaning....oh and blowing bubbles...can't forget bubbles when working in the backyard....

We Got Out Of The House

Jack and I have been really sick this week...We were both tired of sitting in the house and had to get out..After RJ left for work Jack and I got dressed(the first time in 5 days)and went to the park..The weather is just gorgeous here and I could not justify staying inside one more minute....

A Hiking We Will Go

Yesterday, the three of us went hiking at Red Rock. Jack and I took RJ to our favorite spot...and the waterfall was running as the snow in the mountains is melting...it was beautiful....The trail we took was called the Children's Discovery Trail..It's Jack's favorite because of all the rock stair cases, streams, and caves...RJ calls it the Army Training Trail...We all three made it back in one piece and had a wonderful time..Here are some pictures of Jack enjoying himself..
