Take me out to the Ball Game!

Except, not in the rain, wind and cold! We have had two weeks of wonderful weather... only to have crappy baseball weather on the weekend. Blake is playing for a super-league team called the Scorchers. He started with them last summer and has a great time playing first base and pitching for them. Chase is also on a super-league team since last summer/fall with the Tigers. We LOVE those boys, parents and coaches (Kyle and Curtis). Chase has pitched and caught...but plays a mean second base. As for Cooper, he sais he is sick of going to their games and is never playing baseball. He wants to be a ninja. Sounds good. Whatever floats your boat Coop! Looking forward to a great season out in the sun....and spitting seeds!

Suprise Cooper!!

Cooper has been talking about having a surprise party for over a year. He said "you know when everyone is hid'in and they jump out and say 'surprise!'" So, a week after his birthday (and YES it was because i am ill equipped to have a party on time...or a present ready for that matter!) we decided to throw him a surprise. He loves having parties at Uncle Kevins so we all met there and Curtis took him to do some "errands" and if he was good he would go to the store and get him a treat. The look on Coopers face (confusion, scared, excited, thrilled) was priceless. Here's the kicker....i thought the video tape was fading in. Come to find out the cap was still on. Im a loser, first one to say it. I'll post what i can.
