Big Catch Up!

It seems like we are getting much busier now and I'm not getting this updated as often, so wanted to share a few pictures/videos of the kids - and even one of David and I.

I went on a field trip with Hunter to Burr Oaks a while back and these two little girls were hanging with Hunter most of the time. He asked if he could have his picture one of them and the other had to be in the picture with him too. They were pretty cute.

Peyton recently completed preschool and they had a graduation with their caps & gowns. They were so darn cute...

This was during a performance of a song called a Tooty Ta Ta (a variation of the Chicken Dance) and so his tongue stuck out and all was part of the lyrics - they all did a fun performance for us.

David and I attended what we thought was going to be a friends wedding last Friday night and we got all dressed up for the "Red-Carpet" event...turns out they got married in January and this was the movie premiere of their wedding...we don't get the opportunity to get dressed up too often - so that was nice.

Here is a picture of David in front of the J.C. Nichols Fountain and then a picture of me outside of the theater.

Here we are on the "Red-Carpet". My dang straps wouldn't stay up on my dress - guess I lost enough weight! Which is good - but everyone who has seen the picture has told me my strap fell - yes, I'm aware and so before you can tell me...I'm telling you. :)We have been running like crazy to baseball and t-ball games lately - when it's not been raining! I thought I would include a few videos of the boys at their games.

There is one of Aubrey & Peyton, along with two other girls, who was the cheering section at Hunter's ball game. They were having quite a time cheering on the Tigers.

Notice in Peyton's video that he wanted to make sure I was getting him taped...he even looks back to make sure when running to first base.

Hunter's is a short video - hope to get another at his next game. During this game, Hunter was playing the pitcher and one of the little boys from the other team got up to bat, hit the ball and it hit Hunter smack dap in the mouth. He ended up losing his already loose tooth later that evening. He knew the little boy from school and just couldn't believe that he didn't even warn him the ball was coming at him...I had to explain that it happens so fast that there really wasn't any warning to give. He seemed okay after awhile and understood it was an accident.

Zach's video is a little longer just because of all the different variables that goes into their games.

They are doing pretty good this year - have had a couple of upsets and a couple of awesome comebacks. It is so much fun at this age watching him play.

The kids and I went to the Deana Rose farm today along with my best friend Lori and her two boys. We all had a fun time and enjoyed the beautiful weather outdoors. I have some pictures, but figured I had already put enough on this post - so maybe I'll get them on flickr or somewhere.

One little story from this evening...Aubrey and Hunter were upstairs settling down for bed and I sent Peyton up to bed too. He wasn't too happy about it - a couple minutes after he went up, here comes Aubrey...why do you hate us mom? I told her I didn't hate them - I just wanted them to go to bed - seems like Peyton went up and told them I said I hated them all. Not nice! A couple minutes later, here comes Hunter - Why do you hate us mom? Once again, I don't...just want you to go to bed - he went in and got some water and on his way back through he replied, I just don't understand why Peyton would lie to us like that. I don't either! And I don't hate you! LOL - Kids!

I hope everyone has a safe holiday weekend!
