Jonas Brothers Concert in 3D

Friday night my neighbor Karen and I took our kids to see the new Jonas Brothers Concert in 3D! Allyse and Jacob had a blast! I forgot to take my camera...of course!

That is pretty much all the excitement that we had this weekend. We didn't have any baseball games this weekend...no cub scout or Daisy outings. It is nice once and a while to not do anything. Mike cut the grass on Saturday and then we went shopping for Mike and Allyse a new pair of shoes and then went out to dinner. Mike is leaving for Bogota today for a while and this is the last week of school before Spring Break...which I am very much looking forward to! I think the kids and I are going to go to Breaux Bridge for a little while during Spring Break and visit with family and friends!

Hiking Day with the Daisy's

On Saturday, February 21st Allyse's Daisy Troop took a trip to the Girl Scout facility for a "Princess Day". There were crafts set up for us at stations. We played games and took a little hike. It was a wonderful day! at the end of the day we let the girls roll down the hill...and Allyse said that was they best part of the day!

Camillia's

My little Camellia plant finally bloomed this year. A few months back my children were into picking acorns and one afternoon they came running in the house excited that they had found a bunch of acorns...well...when Mike looked in the bucket...they were not acorns..they were the buds on the Camilla plant. It's funny, because only the back is blooming because the kids picked most of the buds from the front.

SCRAPPERS ~ 9U KID PITCH

As everyone knows...Jacob has been playing baseball since he was 4 years old. This year he has finally made it to Kid ~ Pitch. Since we have moved to Texas we have been on the same team for 5 seasons now. Three regular seasons and two summer seasons...all of them being Coach Pitch. For the most part, our team has stayed together with a couple of kids leaving and new ones coming in. Sunday was Jacob's first game of the season and we happen to have a double header that day. We spent 8 hours at the ball park on Sunday...what a way to bring on the new season. We have a wonderful support staff of dads. The moms and I laughed on Sunday because there are almost as many dads helping out then there are boys! I was able to snap a couple of pictures before my battery died.

Jacob played 3rd base and Catcher on Sunday. He LOVES playing Catcher and is so cute in his catcher gear. The past four seasons the uniforms have been navy blue and gray...and our wonderful coach decided that this year they were going to be white! Yes...I said WHITE! They do look sharp in their little uniforms...I just hope they play as well as they look :).

Allyse's new Haircut

Here are a few pics of Allyse's hair since we cut it shorter! We cut about 3 1/2 inches off!
