T-Ball, Snow and Family Visits!

We have been really busy recently. I realize I should try to post here more often, especially with so many things going on. Jim and Lori (Matt's mom and step-dad) just left after visiting us for the past 4 days. We had a great visit with them. They stayed at a hotel is time, so we enjoyed their hot tub! We also had fun taking a walk on our favorite trail, going to Austin's first Tee ball practice and pictures and just hanging out.

Here are pics of Austin in his uniform for Tee ball! He is on the Rays. He had his first practice last week and his pictures done on Saturday. He was supposed to have his first game, but it was cancelled due to the rain. The mascot from the Sacramento River Cats was there when he got his pictures done, so both of the boys were very excited!



I can't wait to see his pictures he had done. His coach is great too. Austin did a great job at his first practice. I am so glad we got him on a team and I know he is too! All he wants to do now is go out and play catch!

We also got snow! Well, it came about a week ago, but we got some! Jim was here visiting us over St. Patrick's Day weekend (he has been working up in this area) and we woke up to snow on Sunday! It was absolutely beautiful on all the pine trees. The kids were so excited to be able to use their sleds. And we just happen to have a great hill on the greenbelt at the end of our cul-de-sac. So we walked over there and let the kids play! It lasted about 20 minutes until their were freezing but they had a great time.




For St. Patrick's Day we went to a Brewery here in town that had really amazing BBQ'd corned beef and cabbage. They also had a cool Celtic band and green beer. The kids had fun playing with all of the toys they have and we had a great time hanging out with Jim.



We are looking forward to more baseball practices and his first game in a couple of weeks! Ryland is still loving school and has done some really cute spring projects! I recently became addicted to Pinterest and finally set up part of the playroom as a craft/sewing area. I have really enjoyed doing some of the crafts and ideas I came across on Pinterest!

Matt is doing really well and enjoying work. He can't wait for the weather to turn so we can get back out on our bikes and go riding! (We can't wait either, feeling a bit cooped up recently.)

We are also looking so forward to Easter! I love Easter!
