Mother's Day Celebrations

Spent the weekend with my favorite fellas, watching my boys play ball.  I guess I am still a field mom.  Watched the oldest make a double play by himself.    Watched him make another double play and an amazing last out of an inning.  They lost but, a great game and they had fun.   Big T had an exciting game too, he stole second and tried to break an ankle in the process.  He stuck it out and played hard the rest of the game, the other team was more worried about him than we were.   
Enjoyed a beautiful Church service with my oldest singing with the choir.  Our services are usually quite touching, especially at holidays.  I should preface this part with the fact that Big T and I got into a tiff over him wearing dress pants to Church.  He wanted to wear jeans which I normally do not mind, but for Mother's Day I thought he should wear dress pants.  He looked quite handsome in his dress pants and shirt.   While we were sitting listening to the children's message before the sermon,  Big T and I both a little teary, he grabbed my hand and leaned in and said; "I love you mommy, even though you made me wear these pants."  I do love my kids they always know how to make me laugh.

Family Day. . .

The first Saturday we have not had a baseball game or practice in quite a while.  We slept in, well, everyone else did, I never sleep in.  Today we are going and doing things family style.  Dad fixed chocolate chip muffins and Sprat learned how to start his own biscuits in the oven.  We are going to see an early movie, "White House Down."   We are then running errands and later grilling out.  I made some fresh sourdough bread last night.   One of facebook friends gave me her recipe for cinnamon rolls, I may try this one out tonight since we will be home at a decent hour and not traipsing all over the county to play ball.   I will do anything to make my kids happy, with in reason.  I would go to the ends of the earth for my kids but I will not lie, it is exhausting and I do enjoy the down time.  Today we enjoy down time and maybe a good game of dominoes.
