We don't get the whole family together very often. But today was my nephew's baptism and my niece's blessing.. We had almost everyone there. We were only missing one sister-n-law and 4 grandchildren... We missed them all. We will get some great shots next time... But we did have all six siblings there and my sweet grandparents...So we couldn't miss this opportunity for pictures... We had so much fun together... Love everyone to pieces!

Triple A had a great catch on Saturday and ran the ball another 30 yards before getting tackled right in front of the goal line. These are some great pictures that another mom on the team took.
In this picture this kid had just tried to tackle him and Triple A pulled out of it and kept running... So cool...

So little A got her own camera for her birthday.. These are a few she snapped of Double A and I .. She's not bad with the camera, I will have to admit.. Maybe she does have a career here. :)

Double A had her first XC meet yesterday.. She did grat.. Anytime that you are on the edge of throwing up and feeling like you might pass out at the end, you know you have given it your all. She got 16th out of over 100 girls. Great job!

This is my cute little nephew, George. I had him here today and just had to do a photo shoot. Oh, he is so cute! Sarah, I'll email you the rest... I'll also edit a few more for you before I send them...

Matt missed this photo session. He was at the airport... I am sure he was heart broken though. Yeah, we'll go with that! But look at these cuties! Boy, I am a lucky mommy! :)

Little A turned 7 yesterday. Hard to have a birthday party when you have 4 of your 5 in practices until 7:00. So we picked up Triple A from football and went to eat dinner and then came home for some cake. And Little A couldn't decide what kind of cake to have, so I made them both. One death by chocolate cake and the other was a sopapilla cheesecake. We have so much left over it is rediculous! I have already had a piece of the cheesecake for breakfast.:)

What an awesome rain we are having right now. I Love It! It smells so wonderful and it is really coming down. And you know me, always up for a photo opportunity..

Yes, that is what I said, road rash. So this is the difference between moms and dads. The kids have been playing a game where they hook up a wagon to a bike and take each other for rides. Well, when they were doing this a while back they wanted to go down the road. There is a decent slope and they thought it would be so much fun. I said no. So on this day they asked Dad if they could do it. He said Yes. There is the difference. So they had a lot of fun, but as you can see in this video they can start going from side to side. Well, Daddy was going to make it go really fast. Oh yeah! Triple A was the one for the ride! But when it started going from side to side he flipped the wagon and went rolling down the road. I was in the house, heard the crash and waited and then came the screaming. Yeah, he is missing quite a bit of skin. Clothes are ripped pretty good. HE did have a helmet on and thank goodness he put on a long sleeve shirt and pants before he went out. He said he wanted to be safe. Smart boy! :)But on a good point of things he got to sit around in his underwear the rest of the afternoon watching movies. So sometimes getting hurt comes with its perks. :)

Big A had a cross country meet on Saturday. He did great... It was lots of fun to go and watch. It was so much like watching Matt at his college meets. Running around the course to see them in the next spot... It doesn't seem like the little boy who I was carrying on my hip at those races is now running them himself. Oh, where has the time gone?
