Eli's 4th Grade Field Trip

I was blessed to be able to go on Eli's field trip April 20th to the Rosa Parks Museum, Old Alabama Town, and the Alabama Historical Archives. I loved getting to experience this with Eli and his sweet friends, Brady Sutton and Jonah Kohring. Such precious friends!

Eli's face among famous Alabamians. One day, Eli, one day.

Brady Playing Coach Pitch Baseball

Brady has done a super-great job playing for the Braves! He is basically unstoppable on 2nd base and we can always count on him for a hit! I love watching this super-star on the field!

Major Playing T-Ball - March and April 2016

Major's first year of t-ball has been a learning experience. We have finally gotten him to stop throwing his hat over the fence and actually running to first base. He sure is cute out there!

By the way, he is not on the Dodgers, he just likes to dress the part of a baseball player.

Major was so tired from a day of baseball, he crawled into the back of the van and took a nap!

The picture of Major laying down with a baseball is of him with a game ball! He hit in 4 RBI's, and even fielded a ball. :)

Eli's Induction into National Elementary Honor Society - April 3, 2016

On Sunday, April 3rd, Eli was inducted into the National Elementary Honor Society. He has had a straight A average during his 1st-4th grade years. Congratulations, Eli!

Start of Baseball Season - March 2016

Once baseball season starts, we are going fast and furious around here. I don't want us to eat out too much, so after school we make sandwiches at home, grab an apple, and get out to the ball fields. Eli is on a player-pitch team, the Giants, and plays pitcher and 1st base. Brady is in coach-pitch, plays for the Braves, and his position is 2nd base. Major plays the outfield in T-ball and is on the Rays. Major is only 4, so this year he is the kid in the outfield spinning in circles and throwing his hat. Hopefully, this will change as he ages and matures.

Easter Morning - March 27, 2016

Easter morning means surprises from the Easter Bunny: Easter egg hunt, then church, then dinner as a family with a lamb cake for dessert. This year, my lamb cake didn't turn out too well, but it is part of tradition and the boys know that it represents our risen savior!
