We've all been so busy lately. Just in the middle of summer busy busy time I guess. Baseball and softball are now done. There are some changes at work, nothing major but just more work for me. There are other things going on that I'm not going to blog about. But, bottomline, it's been crazy.
This weekend was the state softball tournament. Shelbie did awesome. I have pictures to post and I will do that later when I find some more free time. She got the S.H.E. award after one of the games. That stands for Sportsmanship, Hustle, and Enthusiasm. I was super proud!
I've been really proud of her dedication to the game. All the hours of practice out in the terrible heat and sun, without complaining one bit.
My update here is pretty short but I do plan on posting more later. With pictures too!

Goodbye
Goodbye Michael Jackson. Farewell.
When I heard today that he died I was shocked. Although he turned out to be well, lets just say "odd" I still was sad. He was a part of my childhood. I LOVED him. Yes, I had a big crush on him. I could not stop listening to his music and watching Thriller. I also remember watching him in the "We are the World" video. I had this pink crop shirt that said "Pretty Young Thing" on it. When he died today it was like a part of my childhood died. Hey, no joke. Stop laughing.
One other thing that sticks out in my mind that I was forever looking at the album cover with him in all white. I noticed his one wrist. It had a wierd bone looking thing on it and I was fixated on trying to figure out what was wrong with that one wrist. Anyone else ever notice that?
Anyway, I guess I still have my memories of the original Michael Jackson. Pre-surgery and Pre-NeverNeverLand. Or whatever it was called.
Goodbye Mike (ya, we were on a first name basis back then). I'll miss ya Mike.
***Oh ya, in another note.....I guess Farrah Fawcett died today too. Her and I weren't as close.

Fathers Day




Dad. That's what the kids call him. It used to be Daddy. And, long ago it was Dada. Tim is a really good dad. There are so many things that make him a good dad.
*Coaching every sport imaginable
*Going to concerts
*Getting WWE tickets
*Royals Games
*Chiefs Games
*Dressing up for Halloween
*Playing catch in the front yard
*Making music cd's
*Late night ice cream
*Fishing
These are the things that I know the kids see but there other things that make him a good dad that they don't see.
*Going to work every day
*Being a responsible person
*Paying the bills
*Making sure they get to school
*Looking out for their best interest
*Doing what's best for them
These are just a few of the things. There are more that just aren't listed. Anyway, thanks Tim for being a good father to the kids. They are so lucky to have you as DAD!

My catcher

Baseball is going good. Landon is now catching which is a new experience. Last year he was catcher once and got hit in the shoulder with the ball. That scared him away from catching until now. Now, he thinks the catchers gear is cool and he wants to do it. And actually, now that he's done it a couple games we can see that he's pretty good at it. He's the the speed and he's limber and that helps. I will be taking many more pictures!Monday, June 8, 2009
Softball tournament
This was a long weekend but fun! The Aftershock tournament team went to Hutchinson to play Saturday and Sunday. The sun was hot but I didn't hear complaints. The girls went through so many bottles of water it was crazy! We got smart the next day and brought a cooler and cups. Duh...why didn't we think of that earlier?!
