Another Busy Week

This picture kills me. This is Mick's friend Trevor aka T-Dog!!! Just a little shout out to T!! It was his birthday Saturday and he turned 11. He is the home-run hitter on Mick's superleague team. Mick and T have the same cleats. The BIG difference is that Mick's cleat slides right into T-Dogs cleat! We got a kick out of this! This is Macee and Maddogs friend Crosby. He had a blue Popsicle from the ice cream truck and this was 2 hours later. If I would have took the picture 5 minutes after you could have saw the blue ALL over the face. He is such a cool kid. He and Macee had so much fun playing last week.
Wow - Can you believe our house has gone up this fast? The top pic is a front shot of the home and below is the South side of the home. It is so fun to actually see it going up! Now I need to get my butt in gear and get some projects done here to get this house sold! Anyone interested?

This is our first family photo with Murpy. Obviously not professional. I refuse to pay money to get my pic done until I loose 20 lbs. This was the picture they took of us at church for the ward directory! Life this weekend was busy. I will try and get a slideshow of Macee's first Coach Pitch game done today. Eric said she did awesome. Unfortunately we had to split on Saturday because the two younger played the same time as Mick. They wanted their dad at their game so I went and watched Mick's Tigers team. They did really well. They took 3rd place in the Memorial Tourney. Poor Mick walked the winning run in during the semi-final game. This was the first time I thought he might show some emotion. It was really hard for him. Oh well, just a ball game right? We keep telling ourselves that. We did 6 ballgames on Saturday and survived. I can only imagine what life will be like in 5 years!!! Bring it ON!!!!

I can't even imagine attending 6 games in one day. I think 2 baseball games and a soccer game about does me in! Your house looks like it's going to be sooo nice. We went through the building process twice when we were in St. George. It's exciting, but stressful! And whatever about you needing to loose 20 lbs! No one would ever believe that cutie has had 6 kids! (By the way, you do realize that if you had just one more you could have a family baseball team? I'm just sayin'.)

Fun pictures!! It was a busy weekend....but we all made it through. :o) I love the family picture. All the kids look so cute!! Remind me to tell you what Bo said to us yesterday.... He learned a fun little phrase from Maddux. I told him he wasn't allowed to say that anymore...and his reply was, "Mommy, you love Maddux, huh??" Funny little kids.

I love your family picture!!! A bunch of blondies. :) Kudos to you guys for actually getting 6 kids to church & all looking good! (How early do you have to wake up for that sort of thing!?) I've been inactive for a while, but plan on taking Carson starting this week.
