Artwork

Here are a few pictures of some artwork I made for friends.

These were teacher gifts.

This is a picture frame.

This quote was a request from my pastor.  Hope he likes it:)

I painted poppies for my mom.  It's hanging in her kitchen.

Camp

The past 2 weeks have been a whirlwind.  Tyler had baseball camp 2 weeks ago from 8:30 to 4:00 everyday.  Then both the boys had Soccer camp last week from 9:00-12:00 everyday.  I don't know how they managed the heat but they did.  Tyler thoroughly enjoyed baseball camp.  I figured each morning I would have to drag him out of bed to get dressed, but he jumped right out of bed to get dressed and eat breakfast.  That tells me he really enjoyed it.  Both Hayden and Tyler liked soccer camp.  They came home everyday showing me their new moves they learned.

This is Tyler on the first day of baseball camp.  Looks like I caught him with his eyes closed.

Well, just a couple of weeks before school starts.  Let's make the most of these next 2 weeks!

My Sweet Husband

I absolutely love my husband!  He is the bomb!  Just couldn't help getting a picture of him weed-eating our yard.  Does he look cute or what?

The Boys Love Their Cousins!

Tyler and Hayden love their cousins Braxton and Jack.  They recently came in town to spend a few days.  This is what they looked like their first day together.

That's some wild looking hair!

11 Years

Today, Corey and I have been married for 11 years.  It seems like just yesterday I was publishing a post about  our 10 year anniversary.  Each year seems to move faster and faster.  I love you Corey more today than yesterday and I will love you more tomorrow than I do today.  Love you with all of my heart!

Cutter Out of the House

Well, Cutter had to go back outside.  After doing pretty well for a couple of months, he decided one afternoon while we were running errands that he would chew on one of our cameras!  Oh I was sooo upset.  See you outside Cutter!

Tournament Champs!

The Red Sox played their final tournament in Pearl July 9th and 10th.  It was a Round Robin tournament so every team played at least 3 games.  The Red Sox made it to the championship game and won  16-10!!!!!   Way to go Red Sox!

The Red Sox applauding the other team.

We're #1!

Tyler with Coach Chad

Tyler with his tongue out.

Isn't that trophy too cool?!  It's a baseball glove and it can hold a ball.  So Tyler will have to get a ball that all the players and coaches can sign.

Fourth of July

As soon as we came home from vacation, we turned around and went to our Sunday School July 4th Celebration at the King Buffington Ranch.  The boys got to ride horses while we were there.

We had a good time:)

Family Vacation 2010 - Orange Beach, AL

Once again, our family headed to the beach.  This time, we went to Orange Beach, AL.  Despite the oil, we had a great time!

This was our first day at the beach.  Hayden is all smiles:)

Tyler building a sand castle.

You don't see this too much on the beach . . . a tractor.  This was part of the oil clean-up crew.

Corey enjoying some shade.

Here's another site you don't see, at least up close.  These 2 boats were skimming and corralling oil.

Corey enjoying the lazy river.

This was a common site.  The boys playing the DS.

Daddy, Tyler, and Mr. Fred digging for shells.

What a deep hole you have dug, Daddy!!!!  Digging for shells was probably the most memorable thing the boys did this year.  Digging down 3 feet, we discovered some really great treasures:)

Hayden scored a hole in one!

Tyler scored one too!

The boys playing in the ocean.

They loved jumping when the waves crashed.

I got to bury the boys in the sand.

Tyler

We stayed at Phoenix West which had a water slide and lazy river.  This was such a great place to stay.

Ocean view from our balcony.

We had a great time!  Think we will take another break from the beach and do something different next year.
