The first of baseball.

As soon as DH could get home from the farm

and wash the manure off {eeewww} and eat supper the boys

were begging to head outside. 

Sam wanted to shoot hoops, no baseball interest.

But as I watched from the window while finishing the supper dishes.

I could see that he was going to join.

DH will be coaching Joe's team this year,

Joe worked hard for DH tonight.



 

And before long Sam headed in to get his baseball gear, maybe he

will enjoy the season afterall!

I love hearing that crack of the bat.  Looking forward to ball season.

It is crazy hectic but I wouldn't trade it!

Encouraging Their Interests

We spend time most Thursdays doing something that each boys loves.

Right now Joe loves anything crafts.  Today he was very satisfied with some

rainbow celery art.  It was fun, I enjoyed it myself!

 

Joe is good at art.  He is patient and precise.  I like to watch him create.

 

Sam is not as interested in art right now, but he did bring me home this gem!

 

Sam also helped me cut the celery that left the stamp for Joe's art.

Yep, with a knife. We went over those rules of the knife over and over!

But he LOVES the kitchen.  So tonight he helped me chop celery

and make a mini apple crisp.  I'm proud of his measuring, mixing, baking skills.

 

 

Bass Pro Again!



I shouldn't be surprised with 2 boys

that if we go shopping, it is here!

We headed down after church on Sunday with grandma and grandpa

for fishing days.

It had been so nice on Saturday but it was so windy cold and spit ice~

so ready for spring/summer this year!!
