Hoop it Up!

We are in Basketball Season folks!  Brayden is starting a new sport.  He will have weekly practices/scrimmages for the next 2 months.  He has been telling me to sign him up for basketball, so here we are. 

The first practice was this last Saturday.  We got some new "snazzy" lookin' basketball shoes for him to play in. 

Here are some photos from the 1st practice:




Finally stopped for a quick picture:

He really enjoyed himself and Brock and Brylee enjoyed running around the gym with balls too. :)  We will see what this season brings for Brayden.  He has to learn it is not a full contact sport first.  But he has gotten some pointers from Dadda and Grandpa John so we should be able to overcome any obstacles.

Here is hoping for an awesome season!!

Welcome to 2012!

We watched the second practice and Brayden has excellent form. He may get some skills from his Grammy who played hoops back in the day. He's got game, that's for sure. Brock wants to play as well, not far behind.

Art Project

So I found this desk I don't know just over a year ago.  It was before we moved.  My mother-in-law was visiting and we spotted this kids desk sitting out at a neighbor's house with a Free sign on it.  Brad was sceptical and wondered why I picked it up.  It needed a little work, but I thought it would be great as an art desk for the kids.  Before: When we moved it came along with us.  I had not touched it up to that point.  And after we moved it sat for a month or so as it was not one of the top priorities at the time.  Late November (I think) we finally went and picked out some paint for it.  The boys and I decided on a bright orange.  Yes, we are talking "Construction Warning" orange! And after a little bit of work and talking through with the people at Lowe's we made it happen.  The boys, Brad and I then painted a white "primer" coat on the desk to cover the blue and red.  Here were are starting our proj...

Peacock Lane

We took a trip to a local Christmas Landmark- Peacock Lane.  It is in Portland.  Every house on the lane decorates with Christmas lights.  Several do amazing things! I had not been since I was younger.  I had wanted to take the kids in the past couple years, but we just did not make it. We had a clear, dry night and took advantage. :)

Per my mom's request I am posting some pictures of me when I was young and some pictures of Brylee.  My mom was recently going through some old photos and gave me these.  She said that she could not believe the similarities as she was looking at the pictures.  So Mom here you go! These are me at 13, 15 & 16 months:                               And here is Miss Brylee:                                                                   Other than I had a lot more hair than her at the same age, we do look pretty ...
