Tournament Champions

McCray and his team the Scouts played in a tournament over memorial day weekend. Monday they won the championship! (The loser bracket championships) None of us knew there were trophies or that we were in a championship. But it was so exciting! Cray pitched the whole first game and only allowed 1 run. The second game was a shut-out. I enjoy watching him pitch- he's really good at it!  But of course, I am the mom. :-) I planned a potluck picnic for all of the families at the park after the game. We had hotdogs, hamburgers, and potluck stuff. The kids had a blast! The sprinklers came on too, so that just made it that much more fun. The parents on the team have  become good friends. I guess it's because we spend so much time together. It was Reed's birthday too, so I'm glad we were able to do something fun for that too.

Morgan's in Jazz

Morgan is going to a new dance school named Epic gymnastics and dance. I have tried to wait and see if this a passing phase, but it is not going away. So she is doing 2 classes a week- ballet 1 and jazz 1. She is really enjoying it. Oscar and Sophie are taking a beginning gymnastics class there as well at the same time.  They really enjoyed it too, I think.

Reed Turned 10!

Our baby boy turned 10. Where has the time gone?? We celebrated at different times during the week. On Sunday, Erin and Kelly had us for dinner at their house. We love going over there, visiting, and enjoying their backyard. The kids always get so excited to go. They played some baseball, soccer, and just ran around having fun. We had delicious low country boil and topped it off with summer cake. We were saying that pretty soon Mom and Dad will be there too. We can't wait. Oscar was being so grown up and helpful. He was in charge of lighter duty and helping with the candles. We sure love Reed! He is amazing, and has so many talents. We have said since he was a baby that he is an old spirit in a little body. He always is saying "I can't wait to grow up and....." I'm always trying to remind him to not grow up too fast. Stay young, and enjoy being a kid. He sure blesses our lives.
