Our two little baseball stars! Kaden is playing Rookie and it is kid pitch and machine pitch combined. Emma is playing T-ball and loving being the only girl on the team and one of the only girls in the League. We love to watch them on the field. They do such a great job and Kaden is already making great plays and getting outs as well as hitting like a champ! Emma is learning that the ball comes at you pretty fast and that it is fun to chase the ball no matter where it goes on the field. :) I just love being the assistant coach for Kaden and a crazy fan for Emma!! The best part is just having fun and watching them have such a great time.

Need I say more!! What a kid!!

So this is my sweet Gracyn!! She is the light of our family and brings such joy and happiness to our little world. She can be the most fun and exciting kid ever to be around...
THEN...
You get this side of her and you can't help but laugh and smile. She knows exactly when you have annoyed her too much and she lets you know how she feels. PRICELESS!!

Arizona Winters make for the best Summers!!




We love the lake!!!!! Puts a smile on my face every time I see these four!!


Wow! I thought that I was so up to date with my blog and as I read and look at other blogs, I wonder if my life will ever be as exciting...

It seems like people go ALL out to make sure that their blog is so fantastic, that they lose track of real life. I know that in our family, we have lots of great times, but we have a lot of not so fun times too. Some of the best times of life come after the trials.

Anyway, life is good. I found out today that my little Emma has Pneumonia. What a tough trial. She has struggled with the idea that her body is that sick and the reactions to the medication aren't that fun. I feel for her sweet soul and know that in a week or so, she will be lighting up our home with her funny jokes and big smile.

Luckily, Kaden and Gracyn have yet to get any of it and we hope they won't. They are both doing great and Gracyn takes the cake right now for the funny things she says and the funny things she does. She really is on fire with making up songs about whatever she is doing. For example, a song about putting on her clothes. A song about eating dinner or picking up her toys. A song about playing in the dirt while at Kaden's baseball game. She can go on and on and it is so fantastic!! I could listen to it all day long and Jaime just laughs because she does listen to it all day long and wishes sometimes it would stop. :)

Jaime seems to take it all in stride. She is a great Mom and does such a fabulous job at keeping the house up, the kids in school, homework done, scouts and dance attended, and a million other great things to make life easy and fun for all of us. She even still manages to beat the kids at GO FISH every once in a while too!! Way to go Jaime!! You are the BEST!!!
