Final Baseball Pictures

This was Trey's final game for the Spring season. They lost the tournament game, but played better than they ever have.

Baseball is over...

Well, the baseball season is over, and we are sad to say that Trey did not make All-Stars. The coaches think that he is a great ball player, but has a problem with crying. Trey hates to make mistakes in baseball, so when another player gets him out, or if Trey himself makes a mistake, he usually sheds some tears. The coaches that were scouting for the All-Star team saw every last tear. So...this is a great lesson for Trey! He knows why he didn't make the team, and is pumped for a summer full of baseball, and another shot at the All-Star team next year. Trey will be going to the Bowie High School baseball camp, and also the UT Baseball camp! Rest assure that we will be informing the summer coaches at these camps about Trey's little (crying) problem and maybe they can work on that with him! Trey's team, the Oakland A's, had a very good Spring season! They had a record of 16-4-1 which is AWESOME!!!

Happy 50th Birthday James

Our dear friend James works overseas in Saudia Arabia. He doesn't get to come home very often, so when he got a 2 week leave, his wife and sister planned a surprise 50th birthday at the Round Rock Express. He loves baseball and loved it even more when they presented him with passes to sit in the new Intel Box Seats. It is directly above home plate, air conditioned, waitress, alcohol, food...the list goes on and on. Aurelio and I were invited, and gladly accepted!!! A big thank you goes out to Janis and Carren for inviting us, and a huge thank you to James for fighting for our country!


Play-date!!

One of my best friends, Jennifer, also nannies twins. Now that summer is here....we throw all 4 boys in the pool! We tried to have races....blue floaties vs. green floaties....the boys didn't want to play, they just sat there...oh well! From left to right, G, C, D, W. These boys play so well together and it also gives Jennifer and I a little time to have "adult talk" during the morning. (Yes, yes, D is picking his nose)

Crawfish!!!

Aurelio threw a crawfish boil about two weeks ago...so that gave his friend an idea to throw one as well. Aurelio did most of the cooking while teaching his friends along the way. I think there was 30lbs of crawfish!!! We wanted to see if one of the "mud bugs" would hold onto my earrings, the answer is YES, it held on for dear life! We had a great time, and ate TONS of crawfish over the last two weeks.
