Spring tee ball

Bridger is a Turley through and through.  It comes out in different ways and this time, through sports. We have tried about 3 different activities to see what he would like.  This year, he was finally old enough to play baseball, well, tee ball to be exact.  And he LOVES it!


 Getting ready for his first practice.  He is also very excited about being 4!  Him and Livy can pick the number 4 out of any sign, label, story, ANYTHING!

I died laughing at his first game!  It was awesome to see the helmets on these little kids.  It reminded me of the movie "Space Balls".   No one knew where to run after they hit the ball and it was a wrestling match in the field every time a ball left the tee.

Just a few games in and they have a good grasp on the game.  No more dog piles, they all run to first base (no guarantee after first, though), and every great once in a while, someone catches the ball.

It's hard not to think of Chad when we embark on new adventures like this.  I know that he would be right there with Bridger, teaching him all the tricks of the trade.  Bridger is very encouraged to know that his daddy loved baseball and played when he was a little boy just like him.

Happy Easter 2012

We had a small but great Easter at our house.  The Easter Bunny brought suitcases for our trip to Disneyland, some clothes, and a tiny bit of candy (stingy bunny)!  


I started a tradition last year making a skirt for Livy and a tie for Bridger.  I really love to sew and this justifies another project.  I wanted to make a bubble skirt for Livy and after much searching online, I was left to my own devices.  I think it turned out great and she loves it.



I just love these two.  They will forever be my babies!
