Fireballs

Team photo of the 'Fireballs' from a recent soccer game

Lily's biggest fan.  He can't wait to get out onto that field!

Take me out to the ballgame

It was a baseball filled weekend. One of Ryan's best friends, Sean, was in town for spring training and a little basketball watching.  

Three games in three days.  

On Friday, I dropped the boys off early to watch March Madness.  William was not happy to be left behind…"Why can't I go with Daddy and Uncle Sean??  I like basketball, baseball, and beer too!"

Saturday, all three boys headed to Surprise to cheer on the Royals, while Lily and I enjoyed a girls day, including her soccer game and an ice cream treat afterwards.

On Sunday, the whole crew watched the Giants vs the Royals in Old Town.  Lily loved her HUGE bag of cotton candy, William loved people watching and all kinds of balls, and Mommy loved the sunshine and great company.  Such a fun weekend with Uncle Sean.  We should make this an annual event!

Friends...

The photo below was taken almost exactly one year ago…

This was last week at the park.

Where did our babies go??

Lily's best friend McKenzie (Grayson's big sis) will be moving to Atlanta.  The only way Lily is understanding this big change is relating it to never seeing her George and Henry…"Mommy, it's like when we never go to Miss Amy's house anymore, right?  I miss George and Henry.  All you and Miss Amy ever did was sit around and talk.  Mommies are so boring."  Love that girl! 

We will miss the Alley family very much but are excited for their adventures and wishing them the best of luck!

Grandma!

Our favorite spring visitor arrived in AZ…Grandma O!  We did lots of fun activities, including a visit to the Butterfly Wonderland, a hike on our local nature trail, and gymnastics play.  But a visit to Arizona in the springtime would not be complete without a spring training baseball game!  The weather was beautiful, and dare I say, a tiny bit hot!?!  

The kids (and mom, ha!) enjoyed a huge ice cream sundae, which quickly ended up all over William.  Luckily, we sat in the lawn open seating so they had plenty of room to run around and burn off all that sugar.  A little wrestling with Daddy helped as well!

As always, we loved having Grandma visit and are thankful for the quality time with her!
