Day at the Beach

We took the kids to the beach this weekend. It was nice, we haven't been since the summer of Katrina. Things look different there but they have bounced back quickly all things considering. As for Marine Life I guess they have yet to rebuild but from what we saw today there is no need. The kids and Ronnie caught guppies & crabs ( which we did throw back into the water). Then there was a jellyfish and the thing that looked similar to a stingray. I am sure it wasn't b/c when we turned it over it resembled a crab. People were coming over to see all that we attracted and that included the beach patrol! We asked them if they knew what it was, I am still not sure if he was joking when he called it an armadillo crab!

We decided that the water had become somewhat dangerous after the Armadillo Crab and decided to go home. But we did have a lot of fun!

The cutest thing

We were getting ready to leave this morning and Caleb was being himself running around the house getting into everything, and Luke just says the cutest prayer out loud. It went something like this. " Jedus pease come into Cayub's heawt" It was so sweet. I guess he thought that if Jesus came into his heart that Caleb would be a little calmer?! It is amazing what they can understand at such a young age!

Back to "Normal"

I feel like life has just today turned back to normal again. We had a very long,hot but none the less wonderful week. It was the World Series for Jacob. Ronnie was off of work for 10 days, my mom was here and we had ball games ALL week long. Jacob and his team ended up coming in 3rd place which they were very depressed about, they won State a few weeks ago and won the World Series last year and they are a very good team and had a great All-Star season! But as you can tell on Jacob's face 3 rd place was not good enough for him. I think they are awesome and did a wonderful job, they played their hearts out in this extreme heat!



Of course the week wasn't complete without going to the dr ( Isaac had an ear infection) and then Caleb caught the stomache bug that according to my dr is going around right now, but thankfully it only lasts 12 hours!
My mom left Friday,and she was a great help. She stayed home with the kids when Jacob had a game so that I can, for once, enjoy the games without visiting the concessions 20 times during a game or hearing" I'm hot" or "is it over yet?'"She was great! Thanks mom!!!

Ronnie went back to work today and I am surprisingly sad about it. Normally it is a nice change for him to go back to work but it was also nice having him home!

So while baseball is over for now, Matt and Jake are still in summer basketball, Matt is practicing football at his school and we just signed Ashley,Isaac and Eric up for soccer. Jake's football sign ups are this weekend! So we will be busy all to soon again with sports, so I will enjoy the "break"!!!
