T-ball

We signed 2 up for t-ball this year...only 1 lasted.

After Jacks stole the ball during practise,then quietly tip-toed off the field, trying to hid it from the coach; I decided we would give him another year before we actually put him in the game.

Bennett has been enjoying it, however.

He's pretty good at it also. He must take after his dad who was on the little league all-star team back in his day.

Breakable

Jemma broke her arm this weekend, poor girl.

She fell down the stairs at Grandma Julie's house.


My nephew, Ben, appropriately asked, "Why are your kids so breakable?"


Good question! As you may remember, Bennett has broken his arm 3 times.

So what do you get for breakable children?
A trampoline!

Brilliant on Matt's and my part.

They sure do love it!

I won't jinx it by saying thus far we are major injury free. (From the trampoline, of course)

Grizzly Bears, Oh My!

I was so disappointed we hadn't yet made it to Yellowstone this spring to see the bears out and about. I really wanted to.

However, little did I know all we had to do was drive over Togwotee Pass on our way to Idaho to see a mama grizzly with her cub.


It almost made the 4 hour car ride with screaming kids worth it...almost.
