Go Tigers!

Today was Ben's first Tball game! It was so windy and a little chilly. All the kids did great and had so much fun! Ben did great! He hit the ball, ran fast, and even slid home on his last run, hehehe!
He's ready to go!

Up to bat!


Good hit!

Hanging out on 3rd base with his Daddy!

Waiting on the batter to hit the ball.

Good Game!!!!

Spring Break Fun

We had a very busy Spring Break full of fun and friends!
Tuesday my friend Tonya came over with her boys Jack and Judd. We also had four of the Dalton kiddos over to play! It was a little chilly that day but the kids didn't really seem to mind.

Everyone having lunch at the big table :)

Ben and Jack dressed up as Spiderman so Macie had to also. Macie wore her Spiderman costume with pink boots, very sassy!!!

They all enjoyed an afternoon snack of chocolate chip cookies! They are all just too cute!

Wednesday it was FREEZING! But we braved the cold and went to the Zoo to meet friends.

I can't believe we got all the kids to stop for a picture.

It's a good thing we had Ben and Jack to navigate for us!

"EEEWWW that goat just spit on me!!!!"

Ben, Henry, and Jack hanging out!

Thursday was beautiful and warm! We went to Hunter Park for a picnic, playing, and duck feeding.




Friday Matt took off work and we tried to go to Riverside and play but it was so crowded! We walked around a little bit and then left.

Ben was supposed to pose like the runner... guess he wasn't in to it :)
We left the park on Riverside and went to a nature park in Broken Arrow. Ben played on the playground, we had a picnic, and took a walk through the nature trail. It was a wonderful day!

Over The Hills and Through The Woods...

Ben and I spent last weekend at my Mom and Dad's. Although I am not really sure why I went. When Ben is with his Gigi and Pops I am nonexistent.

We got there on Saturday and were outside all afternoon and evening! Ben and my Dad made a fire in the fire pit and we roasted hot dogs.
My brother, sister-in-law, and niece came over too!
We all made my favorite, SMORES! Yum Yum!!!
Sunday Ben and my Dad headed outside again to do some work. Mom and I stayed inside and she tought me how to make her famous pie crust! Then we all played outside, walking around in the woods and riding the 4 wheelers.
Ben was sad to leave... He would stay forever if he could! He immediately fell asleep in the car! We got back home to the City and he woke up... Half asleep he said "I didn't want to leave her house."
Ben is so blessed to have his Gigi and Pops and he loves them so much!

Baby, It's Cold Outside!

About a week ago we started getting the news that a Winter Storm was coming our way! I went to the grocery store like 3 times! When Ben and I went to the store Wednesday night there were NO BANANAS, and NO BREAD! What is everyone doing with these bananas????
Well the meteorologists were right. We got about 8 inches of snow on top of ice! Luckily we didn't lose power!
Matt, Ben, and I got out and played yesterday. Ben ate some icicles and snow, threw some snow balls, and made some snow angels.
We have these saucer like sleds that Ben refuses to sled on! It may have a little something to do with the fact that I traumatized him a couple of years ago. We had a winter storm and I wanted to take Ben sledding for the first time! So he and I got all bundled up I put him on the sled and pushed him down the hill in our front yard. He FLEW down the hill SPINNING & SPINNING! He then jumped the curb and landed face down in the snow. He was totally fine! Man, I still giggle about it!
So today my goal is to get him back on the sled! I'll let you know how it goes.

Yummy! (There is just something that grosses me out about this!)

Soakin' up some... snow?!?!?!

Hmmm, tastes like snow!

This little bird feeder was a happenin' place yesterday!

Oh Summer how I miss you!!!!

Party Animal!


Ben has had been invited to some really fun Birthday parties this month!

First we had Brady's "SuperHero" party! All of the kids came in costume! All of the kids had so much fun!
Here is Ben and his friend Alex enjoying the crafts and cake!



Then Ben was invited to Macie's Birthday Party. Well it was actually Cade, Cole, & Macie's party (they are triplets)! This was Ben's first time to buy a girl gift :) I took him to the mall and we picked out a purse, necklace, bracelet, a little coin purse. He picked it all out himself... well with a little help from me. heehee We wouldn't want Macie to be walking around with mismatched jewelry ;)
Here is Ben and the Birthday Girl! (I don't know why he does his head like that!)

He was so excited to give Macie her present! Here he is watching her unwrap it and telling her all about it!

They had every kids favorite, pizza!

Macie is the sweetest little girl... and cute as a bug!!! She and Ben have a little crush on each other! It's so cute!

Monster Jam!!!!

Saturday night we took Ben to Monster Jam at the BOK Center. He loves monster trucks and was excited to actually see the trucks up close!
We got there and bought these cool earplug/ear muffs. It was so loud once the trucks started up... I am so glad they had these for sale.

Ben and his cousin Landon watched the whole event!


Ben's favorite part was the Donut Contest!

I hope that since Ben enjoyed Monster Jam we can go to a Nascar race!!!!

Snow Day in Big BA!


On Christmas Eve it practically blizzard! After all the Christmas festivities Ben went out and played in the snow.
