Pink Tie Ball

Another Event I forgot to blog about...Pink Tie Ball!

Not sure why...it was so much fun!

It's still fun to get dressed up.....

especially when you are supporting such a worthy cause.......

and a night with some really, fun, amazing and beautiful friends!

And it was a night with my hottie husband! We loved every second it it!

Hillcrest Youth Triathalon

 Somehow in the hustle and bustle I skipped a few things I should have blogged but didn't....one of them was the Hillcrest Triathalon!

It was Sk's first time.....

Rollins' 3rd year.......

and Riggs' 5th year I believe!

They swam.....

 transitioned.....

Biked........

and ran their little hearts out.....

all the way to the finish line......

Best memory of the day was when SK got a water on her way to the run.....

She sipped it and then asked me where the trash was.....

no trash can? "I can't litter, mom!"

I told her just to throw it....and she stood there... for what seemed like forever....contemplating this evil act of littering.......as the triathlon clock kept going....

Finally, after seeing 15 people toss their cups in the grass, she tossed hers too and ran on.....

sweet, SK.......love her and her heart so much....

Julia & SK finished but they were both emotional from their efforts....they tried so hard

 The firetruck blasted the kids after it was over to cool them off!

they were wet and happy....

silly.....

and proud!

Both Riggs and Rollins placed in their age groups!

It was a fun morning! 

The Hillcrest Triathalon tradition continues!

Air soft summer

Just want to remember summer 2013 as the Air soft summer! I can't tell you how many epic air soft battles happened in my back yard this summer! Such fun for the boys!

Rainy beach day

The next day of Spring break brought rain and cold, but we smiled right through it!

We shopped.......

and went to the movies!

 and had the best lunch at LuLu's! We had hula hood contests, played volley ball and danced!

 The kids took the cutest pics in the photo booth there too!

 We boys ended the night with a big basket ball game with their new friends from Kokomo, Indiana!

spring break 2013 day 2

When we woke up on day two of Spring break all was right with the wold! In the night the Timmerings had arrived!

Everyone was excited and happy to have their best friends there....we all had that one person we love to laugh with the most!

It was going to be a good day!

We headed to the beach.....

found some awesome shells.....

jumped in a giant sand hole.....

made sand castles......

and played till our hearts were content!

We had dinner in and after we headed to the beach for our annual beach bonfire!

and to of course..... go crabbing!

It was the best........

truly ......the ......best!
