Baseball season comes to an end...

Baseball season is finally coming to an end. Colby's team ended the season on Saturday. They lost but ended up 6-5 for the season. Colby's team plans on staying together for the Spring season. He will be participating in winter practice sessions. The team plans to play in a few pre-season tournaments in the Spring. His coach really wants to try Colby out at catcher. Colby has the arm and speed to play catcher and so I think we are going to be investing in some catcher gear for the boys. Tristen already plays catcher but the gear provided by the team fits him. Colby is a lot smaller, so we plan on buying some catcher equipment for Colby to try out and see if he likes catching. Here are some pics from this weekend.


Tristen's season ends on Tuesday. He has make up games on Monday and Tuesday from rainouts that happened a couple of weeks ago. Tristen had a terrific hit on Saturday and got to play catcher for 2 innings.

Jason's softball

Jason has been playing softball every Friday and Sunday. Friday nights he was playing on his work team, but their season has ended and will start back up in the spring. His Sunday league is a new league he started playing in. Here are some pics and a video of him from his Sunday games.

Wedding Pictures

I figured it was about time for me to finally post wedding pictures - 4 months later. I've had the disc of our pictures since the end of July, but I've slacked at uploading them. Here are a couple of my favorites....




Tristen did an impromptu speech. It took us by surprise and here is what he said. "Daddy, thank you for finding me the best mommy." It was too sweet; I of course started bawling.
My ADPi girls singing to me.
Jason singing George Strait's 'I Cross My Heart'.
I love this picture of Colby and me. It really captured the moment.

Jason's cake - I'm glad it turned out so well. I gave our baker very little directions w/his cake.

My cake turned out so well! I was pleasantly surprised. It turned out exactly how I wanted it to!

Abby....the dancing queen...

Here is a video of our niece, Abby, dancing away. She was listening to her mom's ipod. These videos were too funny not to share.

Jason's 30th B-day

Well, Jason finally turned the big 3-0! I originally wanted to try to plan something big for him, but it just never panned out b/c we've all been so busy. We went to the new piano bar, which is literally just around the corner from our house. We couldn't get there until 10pm b/c Jason had a softball game at 8. Little did we know the piano bar closes at 12am on Friday. We had a ton of fun while we were there, but when they kicked us out, a few of us decided to continue the party. We attempted to go to Sneaky Pete's where we had the wedding, but they closed at 12am too. Apparently, we'd missed the memo about closing time of bars in Lewisville. We headed north to Lake Dallas to The Point. Little did we know, we would walk into the bar and they have KaRaOkE...one of Jason's favorite things to do. Thanks to everyone who came out to help celebrate Jason's b-day! He had a ton of fun!!!!

Tristen & Colby's baseball games

We have the boys on different teams this year. This is the first time we've done this. The past 2 seasons we've had Colby playing an age level up so he and Tristen could play on the same team. Luckily, all but one of their games are are the same field complex. A lot of their games overlap in time, but we can easily watch both games w/them being at the same field complex.

Colby's first game he played 3rd. He didn't hit the ball, but he had some good swings and was walked. Here is a picture of him getting ready to catch a ball. Unfortunately, they lost this game.



Colby's 2nd game he played left field and 2nd base. He walked both times he was up to bat, but he also scored 2 runs. Colby did pitch in a scrimmage and he is hoping to pitch in a game soon. He has an awesome arm w/great speed. Here is a picture of Colby up to bat. The Diamondbacks won their first game 9-8.
Tristen's first game he played short stop, catcher and pitcher. He also had a HUGE hit that went straight to right field. Tristen's favorite position to play is catcher. They lost this game by one point! It was a nail biter! Here is a picture of him pitching.

Tristen's 2nd game conflicted w/Colby's so I wasn't able to get any pictures of him. He did steal home, but they lost the game.

Rangers Game

Well, a little late posting these, but we went to the Rangers game for my b-day. Here are a few pics.
