The Concession Stand

As a mother of boys who play baseball, we have to work the concession stand for at least 1 game.
Well my night was suppose to be this past Saturday but the storm came so we were rescheduled for Tuesday. I have never worked in the fast food/restaurant industry in my life.
When you leave there you smell like french fries. Now I love me some fries but don't want to smell like one. I don't mind working sometimes and I actually like seeing all the other parents of kids we know that we don't play on a team with.

Ballgame Night

So last night Wyatt had a baseball game in Churchland. Now churchland is about a 30-40 minute drive depending on when you are traveling up 150. Wyatt plays machine pitch so there
is normally an umpire running the machine but we have kids at every position. Wyatt has been playing pitcher for most of the season now is good at it but last night he was having trouble catching the ball when the catcher threw it back. Well you know me, I yelled "come on buddy you need to catch the ball". And his response was "I'm trying". Of course everyone in the stands started laughing as well as the umpire. Then a few plays later there was a pop up hit to him and yes, he caught it. The umpire high-fived him and told him to tell his mom that he did catch the ball. The boys did great and we won!!!! What a great night.
On a side note when you turn to go to the field there is a worm farm. No I am not kidding and some of the kids thought that was cool

Kids say the craziest stuff

Okay so a few weeks ago when we were at my mom's my niece (Paige) decided she was going to stay all night with us. Now Paige is 5 but she is going on 25. We were sitting in the living room watching TV and we were talking about being related. My mom was trying to explain to the 5 year old that she was my niece and her mom is my sister. She asked, "What does a niece do?" Of course, we didn't know what to tell her except that we was always going to be related and that a niece is someone special. Well then she chimes up and says " I don't want to be delated". I started laughing so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks. A little later she told my mom she didn't want to sleep with her because "Mama makes me sleep up against her and it makes me to hot". By this time I was laughing so hard I was crying and about to wet my pants (sorry so graphic) but both of these conversations went on forever. She sure thinks she knows it all.

Spring Cleaning...

For the past few weeks Stacy and I have talked about cleaning out of closets and cabinets.
Well this weekend we tackled them. I didn't realize how much stuff we have accumulated
over the years. We found stuff that is brand new in boxes that were gifts from our
wedding 13 years ago. And not to mention the clothes in Wyatt's room. We have tubs
full of clothes and baby items. Now that we have done our "spring cleaning" we decided
to have a yard sale. Hopefully this will help others out in finding "treasures" and I can
clear out room for new stuff for me. What is the old saying "A mans junk is another mans
treasure".

I am not a coffee drinker....

For you who know me personnaly, you know that I am not a coffee drinker. But for the last week I have been stopping at our local Sheetz and buying a French Vanilla Cappuccino...YUM! In the mornings I have been getting ready a little faster so I can make my morning stop to enjoy that hot, steamy drink. I even have my husband going after he drops Wyatt off at school to buy himself one. Next week I will be the one taking him to school then off to work so I won't have time to stop (boy am I going to miss it). Back to my cappuccino and work
