HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

to the two greatest father's in our lives! 

Thank you for being there for us, and we love you both very much!!!

My Hubby Don/Daddy...

My Dad Nick/Grandpa...

1st WIN!!

Hip Hip Hooray....Nico's team finally one a game today!! After a very LONG season of losses and rain-outs they finally won one!! It also helped that the other team only had 6 players show up and we had to play outfield for them! :) 

We are thinking the win is one of three things or a culmination of all:

1. We played at a different ball park
2. Our friend's the Catons came for the 1st time (thanks for coming!)
3. The fact that they only had 6 players

Regardless, we will take the W!!! He has two games left and hopefully we can pull off a couple more wins!

Hey!!

Just wanted to quick say HI to you all! 

Life has been crazy, and now I'm to the point where I'm feeling overwhelmed with my blog posts...lots to say but don't know where to start. Which is why I decided to start with HI...I figured this may jump start me back into the swing of things (that is until I'm on vacation in 12 days with limited internet, but I'll figure something out)!

Miss you...Kisses...

Wordless (or mostly) Wednesday

Out on the O'Connor's boat/lake (Sun, 5/31)....

Laying on My Back

So it's finally summer, I'm excited for all of the fun things that summer has to offer, I may finally have time to blog, and what do I do tonight...screw up my back, that's what! I cannot believe this has happened (although not the 1st time) and am praying it will get better quickly. 

Here is how it all played out, but you're gonna get the long version because my back hurts and can't really sleep so I'm may ramble!

Anyway, Don was out of town for football camp in KC and I was left on single parent duty. Nico was supposed to have a baseball game tonight, so I got all of the kids fed & out the door. We get to the ball park only to learn that all games for the evening were cancelled due to the storm that was rolling in (great call because not more then 5 minutes later did the heavens open up on us). I decide since it's summer break and we have nothing to do then movies and ice cream it would be for our evening.

I went to the store grabbed three movies and the fixings for our ice cream and headed on home (oh & I should add that by the time we got home it looked like I had taken a shower...I was SOAKED). We finally sat down to watch the movies at about 8PM (minus Bail because she went to a friend's to sleep over). We 1st watched Mall Cop...it was alright but funny enough for an impromptu movie night. Don & I then put the kids down and watched He's Just Not That Into You...good chick for sure  I think Don liked it. 

We finally started the trek to bed around 2AM...in typical mom fashion I start straightening up the path to bed. Now if you're a mom you know what I mean...you grab things that have been left lying around & out of place, clothing that have been strewn everywhere. Well there were a few things left on the steps so I bent over to get them (apparently at an odd angle) and WHAM...the back was NOT happy. It hurt so much that I couldn't even walk up the stairs...Don had to come help me up the stairs and help me maneuver my butt into bed (quite a sight to see I might add).

So here I am now, it's almost 3AM and I'm stuck laying on my back in pain...thank the Lord that I took a nap today!

Oh crap I have to go the bathroom! What to do....hmmm?????
