Spring Soccer Season

This is BAxter's 2nd season to play soccer and he thinks he is an "old pro" at it now........he loves it and has lots of fun every game!

Here is some of his teammates........they are all such good kids, 4 boys and 1 girl!

He tries to score every time.........some times we succeed, and some times we don't!!!!

He spends quit a bit of his time looking to see if the family is cheering for him, I think that is his favorite part of the game, that and snacks!!!!!

He has such a good daddy........Jeremy is the coach and so good with the kids, he makes it fun and is learning a lot of patients!!!!!

Happy Easter!

Here is my sweet little boy in his Easter outfit.........he would barely stop long enough for a picture. We had one busy Easter weekend as you will see, just keep looking!!!!!

My sweet little family after church.

Me and my sisters at Easter lunch at mom's...........this was after we all had a garage sale together on Friday and Saturday and NO FIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!

We had a picnic on Saturday at the pond behind our house.......Baxter caught a fish!

Sandwiches, chips and a diet coke!!!!!!!!!!

Uncle Josh fishing with Baxter, quit a pair!

Aunt Essie even helping with the fishing.........that could be a disaster waiting to happen! (They made it without either one of them falling in!)

Baxter's Easter party at school............candy and toys in the eggs, he was excited! It was a fun time had by all!!!!!

Checking to see how many eggs he had..........Katelyn was checking too, she REALLY likes Baxter!

How many now?????

Got to get that egg before someone else does!!!!!!!!!!!

He is a good listener at school, the proof right here!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moving Day for Erica & Josh!

We spent our weekend helping Erica and Josh move to their new house in Stillwater. It was a busy day but fun and they have an adorable house! But most of all Baxter got to ride/drive a U-Haul!!!!!!!!!!!! Watching him get so excited about it was worth all the hard work!

He thought he was big stuff. He got to ride in the passenger seat all the way!!!!!!!

Playing in the back was almost as much fun for him as riding/driving it! He ran up and down the ramp 100 times I bet! Maybe we should invest in one for our house, it kept him busy for a long time!

It was all in a days work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BAXTER'S 5th BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday to you! I can't believe my baby boy is 5 already. He was so excited for his birthday...........he picked Monster Jam for it.......it was really fun with family and friends on Saturday in our backyard.

Here was the the Grave Digger pinata that him and his buddy, Benton, FINALLY broke...........CANDY!!!!!!!!

It took severaly hits for them to get it, but it was well worth watching, quit funny!

PRESENTS.......he got lots of fun things - toys, toys and more toys and some clothes, underwear, shoes the not so fun stuff!
We had pizza to eat!

And cake...........isn't that a cute cake, wish I could take credit for making it but I can't! I ordered it and it was as yummy as it was cute.

Party Time!

His best buddy......uncle Josh was there for the fun!

Here is what mommy and daddy surprised him with that morning.......we kept telling him we had something for him in the shop and he couldn't see it until his birthday........he thought it was a semi or monster truck at first. He was so excited, mom nervous and dad very proud!

This was birthday breakfast........it was an all day affair but well worth it!

A trip to the Zoo!

Is this a precious pose or what! We took a trip to the Gentry Drive Through Zoo on Thursday of our spring break. Baxter was so excited to get there, he did not even want to stop for lunch! We finally got there and boy was he impressed........this is him watching the monkeys, I bet he stood watching them in their cages for 15 minutes!

It was really cool........have you ever been this close up with a Zebra, I have now!!!!!!!

The camels loved the blueberry muffins we took left over from breakfast! Yes, he has his head half way into Jeremy's window after more food!!!!

This gave us a good laugh......the emu's were everywhere you looked, goofy looking but VERY friendly!

As I said the monkeys were his favorite.......here was a baby one that he got to hold!

Here was Baxter enjoying the ride through the zoo!

And mom!

And dad........the tour guide, ha ha! It was a fun filled family day!

SPRING BREAK!!!

This week Baxter and I are out of school for spring break and loving every minute of it! We have relaxed, played everything inside the house and out, I drug him around shopping yesterday, he went for his 5 year check up too and grew 2 inches, we went to the park today and tomorrow the Zoo!!!!!!!

NKOTB

Yes, you read it right! I went to the New Kids On The Block in concert............it was great! When I was a teenager this was the first concert I ever went to, it was fun reliving the past!!!! The BOK was rocking full of 30 something age women dancing and screaming to these guys!

There were several girls that I teach with at Lincoln that went...........Janet, Christy, LeeAnn,

And Ellen and Valarie!!!!!!!!!!!
