I'm Yours

This is Bailey sideways singing I'm Yours at Children's Chorus. Mom filmed using a digital camera and it somehow filmed side ways. Just close your eyes and listen!!!! She did an amazing job. At least her mom thinks sooo..!!!!!!

Our MVP...or MOP!!!!

San Pasqual Baseball had their end of the year awards ceremony. Blake received the MVP(or Mop...most outstanding player) award on JV and a huge accolades from both coaches, and they said he will make Varsity proud next year. They said he is the Team Leader, and although he struggled with the last several games at bat, is an amazingly talented player. They talked about his ability to make double plays and talked about some of the plays he made through out the year. Coach Art Warren is retiring next year, and said that in all his years of coaching there has never been a team this loving and caring and had the ability to come together. He never had one problem with any of them. They had the two tragedies and that these boys together became men from these experiences together.

Blue and Grey Ball

Brooke's Social Studies class threw a "Celebrating Unity Ball" this year at the Bear Valley Middle School for all the 8th Grade. This ball was a Civil War reenactment , and the kids learned all types of etiquette and dances in P.E. like the Virginia Reel, Ladies Chain and several others. She was able to borrow a gorgeous dress and get all dolled up. Grandma Farrow came and made her hair look beautiful. She needed to get three partners for three different dance sets, but was asked by 9 boys. I don't know what to make of our silent beauty. Grandma and Grandpa Moon were out visiting, so it was fun for them to get to take part in this too. Brooke had a blast dancing the night away.

The Darndest Things Kids Say

We have really been blown away lately by our youngest Brinley.  She seriously asks us when is she going to turn 6 everyday, but I know she thinks she is a teenager!!  Scary!!!!!   Well...Blake is out of school, and I saw this all transpiring from another room.  Brinley is all decked out in her boots, a big furry coat and a baby stroller with Lucy.  She says this to Blake:

Brinley:  ahhhh holy crap I'm late for camp.

Blake:  What camp?

Brinley:  For Lucy.

Blake:  ohhhh  (he does not want to say too much, so she will keep going on!).

Brinley:  Look I can see her teacher already. I’m sixteen and I can’t even drive, and my Mom is at a stupid meeting. she’s practically been there all day.. .not all day, and she does this everyday.

The poor kid is soo bored.  She accessorizes daily, so you should see her room.  At least 3 outfits a day.  New nail polish color everyday...plus you can see the trail of polish on floors, bathroom counters, granite kitchen counters.  Oh...what funn!!!  She can even do her right hand now.  She is a hoot to follow around!!!!  Her family sure loves her,  she doesn't miss much, and she's hardly shy!!!

Hoppy Easter

Hello! I hope you'll welcome me to the wonderful world of blogspot. This is for my posterity...now I just have to find the time to do it! So here it goes.... It was so much fun having Brittany and Scott here for Easter. We enjoyed taking these pictures after church in front of our blooming spring flowers! Spring is my favorite time of the year. After this we headed to Nanny and Bompa's for a delicious Easter feast! We had Easter egg hunts, played the Wii, and all took well deserved Sunday naps...doesn't get much better than that!

Also, this weekend we all got to experience the Museum of Man in Balboa Park. We saw the Body Exhibit and say it was a little creepy, yet cool and mysterious...after going, how could you not believe there was a God that created such a wonderful and intricate creation. We sort of lost our appetite but about 20 minutes later....everyone was starving and we HAD to indulge in a savory Japanese buffet. Brittany was in heaven with the all you could eat sushi...while Brooke found her pizza and chicken. Blake, Scott and Dad counted their plates...they ate 8, and ate...and ate. :) We were stuffed by the end of it...and man was the car filled with a noxious smell the whole way home! haaha! We hope to do more exciting things while we are still on Spring Break and have the kids home.
