First Pitch

William started as pitcher for the first time yesterday in the semifinal game of the preseason tournament.  Above picture of his first pitch.  It was a strike!  You can see the ball in flight above the man dressed in black.  He had 3 strikeouts in 2 innings.  He also fielded 2 grounders back to him and threw out the runners at first base.  His team had a heartbreaking loss 9-8 and received 3rd place.

Hoops For Hope

Spring Break 2014

 Congratulations to Eric on his new job as Assistant Principal at the new high school!  Elizabeth will be attending this school with him next year.  We are excited!  He had to work over Spring Break but the kids look forward to making lots of memories with him at this school. 

 Sarah had her slumber party over Spring Break.  She was so surprised when she cut into this rainbow birthday cake.

 The kids enjoyed time catching up with old friends.  Above picture at the Studio Movie Grill.

 Catherine ready to beat everyone at Top Golf.

 The kids were ready for daddy to go back to work after he beat everyone at bowling!

The weather was nice most of the week so they enjoyed being outdoors at the park, taking walks and playing sports.

William is too excited about the Tooth Fairy to think about going back to school tomorrow.  He lost two teeth over Spring Break.

Volleyball Champions

Congratulations to Sarah and her Lionettes volleyball team for going undefeated (5 wins) and receiving 1st Place in their pre-season tournament. This is the first time Sarah has won a championship!  She is still grinning from ear to ear!  Way To Go, Sarah!

Open House

 We enjoyed Open House at William's school this evening.

 He had lots of projects to show us.

Way to Go, William!

Happy Birthday

 Happy 12th Birthday to Sarah!

 After church she chose lunch at Texas Roadhouse.

 She was a good sport in front of everyone as they wished her a Happy Birthday!

 A friend of mine is making a birthday cake for her slumber party.  She also made Sarah cake balls to eat today.  They were so good.  We can't wait to see her cake.

Twelve years ago today, Sarah surprised us during a Texas ice storm!  We relived that ice storm this afternoon.  It was nice to have a relaxing day at home even though Elizabeth beat us at Clue.  The kids are super excited that school is canceled tomorrow.  That news was the perfect ending to Sarah's big day!
