Klayton and the Tigers


Another fun t-ball season has come and gone. Of course this year it was even more exciting because bringing a baby to t-ball game and trying to keep a 3 year old entertained hardly leaves much time for actually watching the game.  Nonetheless, Klayton had a great season.  He of course learned a ton and made some new friends.  Our coaches were fantastic.  They were a little intense at times but they only expected out of the boys what they knew they were capable of.  When Klayton got his 1st out while playing pitcher, I don't know who was more excited, Coach Josh or Klayton.  It was too cute.

We had a great season 

It really is sad to see the season end.  What will we do with all of our extra time now?  Don't worry summer fun is almost here.  And coach pitch baseball will be here before we know it.

Kenzie Time

Us middle children have to stick together.  And Kenzie is already suffering from some middle child stuff.  Oh its hard stuff alright :) But for now I will oblige her and take her to do a few fun things.  After all she does endure all the baseball and the only thing the poor girls gets is a ring pop.  I know we are all feel so sorry for her.
Nonetheless, Kevin came hom saying there was a mother/daughter tea party at the club and I should take Kenzie.  I wasn't excitedly thrilled about the whold idea to start.  (OK I wasn't even a little excited about geting dressed up and having to be hoity toity around people I don't know). But when they said that a certain princess was going to make a surprise party I knew we couldn't pass it up. 
So Kevin went to baseball, I went to a tea party, and Grandma watched Konnor.  (I know three kids in three differnt locations; we are spoiled)

So Kevin, yes Kevin, talked all week about how to drink tea with your pinky in the air and how a princess would be making an appearance and Kenzie was so excited she could hardly stand it. 




The waiting was intense :)  At least for a 3 year old.  But the end was well worth the wait.



That is worth a 1000 words.  Of course the princess passed out wands



taught everyone how to curtsy



told a story

and even posed for pictures.


By the end, Kenzie felt like a true princess and it was a great reminder of what a special thing it is to have a little girl.  We had a a great morning together and I do believe this will be one of those moments...
And I didn't have to be hoity toity.  Just being with Kenzie was all I had to do. Shame on me for judging.
