Take us out to the ball games!

Wesley plays with the A's. This year it is kid pitch.
There are a few wild pitches.
Wesley had to try-out and then a team had to draft him.


Riley plays for the Muckdog's. It is coach pitch.
A friend and her are the only girls.
The boys call them the "power hitters".
I think it is because they hit the ball.



Busy, Messy, Fun


These are the Strawberries

This is the strawberry chopper


Award winning strawberry jam comes out in the end .
(Only in our freezer)

Riley and I had a great time making strawberry jam.
She is learning how to not chop half the strawberry
off when trying to get the stems.
Thank you Riley for all of your help!

Turning 6

Riley Jean turned 6
You are such a sweet little girl! You are full of laughter and smiles. You love to sing. Your made up songs in gibberish are the best. Once you were singing in the car and someone with us said "when did you teach her another language?" You are a tease. We thought Wesley was the culprit of the teasing but with deeper investigation it was you. You act shy but really aren't. You love being with friends and family. We are not looking forward to 16 because you are so beautiful! We love you Riley and enjoy you in our lives.

I love to make cakes and after so many
years it is hard to find good ideas.
I made her a purse.
The kids enjoy them. They don't see the mistakes thank goodness.

Riley went crazy over the purse.

Riley loves princesses especially the Polly pocket ones.
