9 Years

Yesterday was our 9 year anniversary! yea for us!!!

We have come a long way and we have gained a few pounds (OK I have gained a few pounds and Des has pretty much stayed the same) as we have seen the years pass. We have lived in different towns and Cities through the years. We have been to the tops of mountains with grand vistas and we have traveled along winding paths in narrow valleys. We have had our differences but have always worked things out...eventually.

I love you Des, And I look forward to spending countless more years with you.

Take me out to the ball game

We registered Ben for T-Ball this year but due to his age he was placed into Minor Baseball! He is doing pretty good considering he has never played organized ball before.

Even though there wasn't play at home plate Ben still chose to slide (either for dramatic effect or just because he's a boy and likes to get dirty, we can't tell).

look at that extension, look at that form... look where your throwing the ball Ben! if there is one thing that we need to help Ben with is throwing straight and actually catching the ball (OK that's two things).

that's our little slugger
