Softball with the Pettetts!

Dan's Aunt Kay was in town for a visit this past weekend. We meet for dinner at the G&R Tavern in Waldo and then went to watch our nieces, Riley & Sydney, play softball!

Riley getting ready to score!

 Sydney sporting her helmet on her first of many visit from the dugout.

 Put me in coach!  Keegan had to try on the helmet.

 Now Charlie bear!

 Sydney preparing to hit a grand slam!

 Visit number 10 - lol!

Fickle Mother Nature

After a few warm days, Mother Nature decided to make it freezing cold again :(  I guess Ohioans should be used to this by now.  Here are some pics of the boys entertaining themselves indoors  as I try to switch out our closets for warmer weather???

 

 Notice they are in tube of clothes that I just folded but they are happy!

 Charlie "hiding" in Izzy's cage.

 New babysitting method & hours of fun - a dog cage!

The Circus!

We took the boys to see the circus for the time - they LOVED it.  We were blessed to have great company - my uncles Bob & Herb joined us. Charlies loved the motorcycles and will still tell you weeks later that he saw a choo-cho; motorcycles, elephants, a dog, tigers and Bob & Herb!  He is so sweet.  Weeven received anti-circus comic books from PETA for kids - who knew - lol!

 Pre-circus dinner @ Dewey's Pizza!

 My two boys snuggling!

Charlie - on the edge of his seat watching the show!

 Keegan giving a standing ovation!

 The main event - so much to watch!

Mother's Day!

I had a wonderful Mother's Day! We went to brunch with Dan's mom and celebrated with my family. I thoroughly enjoyed my 90 minute massage with Wendy - Heaven on Earth!

Keegan loves the flash from the camera!

 Our attempt at a group photo - fun times :)

 Keegan and daddy at Mimi's Cafe.

Texas Adventure

During our visit to TX, we stayed with Dan's cousin Alicia and her family.  They have a beautiful new home with a lot of space to ride the gator!

Big cousin Bryson was an awesome drive & the boys loved it!

 Bryson driving our two sweet cousins: Macie & Ramona 

 I could not tell if they were being sweet or if this was a prelude to a fight?!?!

 Bathtime: Look at those ornery faces!

 Cousins in jammies!

 Who knew you could have so much fun at a sporting good store, Cabela's? 

 

This picture was followed by a very sweet moment with Charlie.  He said is his sweetest voice, "Mommy, please. Please can I have one?"  Me: "Have one what?" Charlie: "Please can I have a polar bear?"
