Boys of Summer

So our baseball season has official begun. Although we have had a few games cancelled because of the rain, we are still playing strong. Both boys have games in different towns on the same night. DH goes with the oldest because he is helping coach, and I head out with the youngest. Last night at the youngest's game he did an awesome job with hitting, and he even caught a pop up for an out!

Getting the MOJO back...

So here I have been unable to really get down to the nitty gritty of scrapping. It is as though the mojo had left. But with summer beginning, my class for the month slowing down, and a few rainy days - I have been able to refocus and find my mojo again.

Here is a LO I did using one of my sketches I will be posting for June. I have been waiting scrap pictures of our new neice, and I finally got the chance - ENJOY!

Recitals and Concerts

During the month of May the boys had recitals and concerts. They both performed special piano peices during the piano recital. They have a wonderful teacher, and they have progressed well.




At the Spring music concert this year both boys were given the chance to sing solos. They both did an awesome job, and we are very proud of their talents.

Baby girl...

I can't believe it has taken me this long to get these pictures up! We got the chance to see our little neice in April, and here are some pics we took. She is so cute!!!







We traveled to Oz and back!

For those of you who don't already know, I am the director of the plays for the high school where I teach. This year we did The Wizard of Oz. We had Munchkins, Monkeys, all the major cast members, and a cast and crew of 40+. I was a huge production for us, and the kids did an amazing job. This is the first chance I have had to post the pictures since the play wrapped up at the end of April. Enjoy the pics...
