Its been a while........

Its been a long time since I have written--we have been pretty busy..baseball and little sweeties has started and we practice 2 times a week and Harper has started Trac Kids which is like a "boot camp" for kids...he seems to like it which I dont understand..who would want to run laps and get "exercise" on purpose----ha--- we have gotten 2 new things recently..a new basketball goal in the backyard..I really didnt think they would use it but my little Annellise LOVES it..I really think if she keeps it up she will be a good ball player, she is definately tall enough...when she woke up Saturday morning at 9 the first thing she wanted to do was go outside and play basketball...we also got a Go Cart..it is so much fun! Bert got it Friday and they rode it around the neighborhood and yesterday we went to Hazlehurst and rode and rode on mom and dads yard..they had the best time..even Caki drove it! We have gone to so many parties lately and this Saturday Annellise had a ballgame at 11:30, Harper has one at 1:00, then we have one birthday party at 2 , and another one at 4....I have no idea how we will get to everything and on Friday they have no school and we have a birthday party to go to at 4 and another one at 5:30...luckily they are right down the street from each other...Annellise went to a party on Saturday too at Pump it up...it seems like that is all we do on the weekends and now we have ballgames to add into the mix...its just me to because Bert works every Saturday but 1 each month...speaking of his work, we went out to eat at Shapleys on Saturday night with the Miskelly people..it was lots of fun and good food, especially the Lemon Ice Box pie....I better go, I need to paint a bullatin board for a gift...there is always something that needs to be done..I dont think it iever ends..ha.,.......

Another egg hunt at school

today we had Harper's Easter egg hunt..it was fun too, I was surprised at how excited 2nd graders still were to hunt eggs..that age is so cute...SO different from the 1st graders I helped with earlier in the week..After school ( it was a half day) we went with Harper's 2 best friends Russell and Jack Henry and Russell's mom Alice to BackYard Burger..the kids had so much fun playing on the "playground" its funny that it is in Byram and we have never eaten there inside, the playground is SO nice and CLEAN! we will definatly be going back. Harper went home with Russell to spend the night so its just the girls this afternoon...So far all we've done is clean and wash clothes ( well I have and she has played Polly Pockets and watched the Disney Channel....I want to brag on my little Harper for a minutep-today at school his teacher Mrs. Engels pulled me aside and told me how much she has enjoyed Harper and told me that Harper is a "very special child to her and she will never forget him and that it has meant so much to have him in her class" I thought that was the sweetest thing and it almost made me cry--of course you always think your child is wonderful but it really means something that the person that spends most of their week with him thinks so too......my Harper is so sweet and I thank God that he gave him to me to raise...what a wonderful '"job" that is! ( I also think that about my little sweet pea too)!

Egg Hunt!

Today was Annellise's class egg hunt..it was lots of fun..we started at 8:30 this morning and have been going all day..they had a jumping thing, played games like carry the egg in the spoon race, bean bag toss, sack races, and they decorated eggs ...after that we hunted eggs and ate a little snack before getting back in the jumping thing...I was so mad because I got there and my battery on my camera was DEAD! I was so mad..I kept going in the girls house and plugging up my charger and charging some juice and would go back and take a few pictures then go back and charge again.....not fun! I really do need to buy a back up battery.....Annellise also had dancing and baseball practice today too...she was sound asleep by 8:30....Harper has his egg hunt and party tommorrow ( if its not raining, right now it is thundering and raining a little) He had baseball practice tonight too..thank goodness Bert was off so I could get them there at both places at the same time..( Bert took him and I took Annellise)
Today was a sad day...we put my sweet Max to sleep...he had just gotten so CRAZY! last night he started screaming ( it scared us all to death!) because he got lost and was behind my chair in the living room and couldnt get out...then he wouldnt leave my room this morning, he was facing my nightstand and couldnt figure out what to do..he also just lost his bladder for no reason in the middle of the floor when I was trying to let him out to go to the bathroom. It was like he was completely blind and lost his way and was so scared! Bert called the vet and he said that he was more than likely blind...We just couldnt see him that way..it was both breaking my heart and making me mad ( the not minding me and peeing all over the floor and his bed and I have to clean it up 99% of the time) It was just time for him to go...we loved our Max ( he was our first baby, we got him 1 month after we got married when we were in Texas) I will miss him!.....

Its Baseball Time!

Yeah, baseball is here! We love baseball---Harper had practice last Thurs night and has it again tommorrow night after baseball camp and on Thursday..Annellise will meet her team and practice on Thurs night too...Her little outfit is going to be so cute, they wear little tshirts and shorts with socks and matching sunvisors..they look so cute ( she is on the "sweeties" team that is all girls) before she has had boys on her team..tonight we got out her stuff and checked her PINK bat, PINK glove, and PINK helmet..(do you notice something) ha.....we had to take some of her stickers off her helmet ( that is the COOL thing to do is decorate your helmet with stickers) because they were "babyish" she is not into the princess stuff anymore--its all Hanna Montana and "big girl" things...we even had to get her batting gloves ready (last year she could care less about them but now that Harper has his she wants to use hers)----they are so cute and make me laugh...especially that Annellise..she just cracks me up----we have a busy week ahead...on Tuesday Annellise (K4) is going on a "field trip" to play and eat at Mcdonalds---FUN! and they get to ride the "school bus"..now to us this is no big deal but to them it is the best thing ever..HA.....then on Thursday Annellise (K4) has their Easter Egg hunt, then dance practice, then baseball practice..on Friday they only go a half day and Harper has his Easter party and egg hunt..then SPRING BREAK! they are off until the Tuesday after Easter....the bad thing is it lasnd on my week to work....so that means they go to daycare or moms, not here with their mamma...boohoo! I will post egg hunt pictures this week...

Annellise loves it because she is BOY CRAZY--especially Harper's friends..she wont leave them alone..its really funny...We went to the ballet Saturday night..it was lots of fun--it was Cinderella and Annellise LOVED it...mom went with us and I think she liked it too..Annellise and her talked the entire time, Annellise kept telling her what was going to happen next ( like mom didnt know..Ha) Harper didnt really enjoy it, he was Bored! I was a little bored too...we went to Mcalisters afterwards... As I showed in the pictures a week ago Annellise had her first playdate..it was lots of fun..Annellise was so good, I was a little worried about her sharing but she did great...I am trying to think about what all I have not blogged about...We flew kites on Sunday and mom and Harper worked on his big project that he made a 100 on ! yeah!
I go back to work on Wednesday..this is starting my "all gray" clothing now...All of Radiology has to wear gray..its so ugly...every department is now assigned a color to wear and ours is gray...yuck! I cant think of much else..we are planning on going to Memphis this weekend..I hope its pretty so we can go to the zoo and the IMAX theater (I love going there) and maybe do a little shopping!
