Where did the week go?

It's amazing to think a whole weeks gone by already. This week has been busy.
Cole had Regional and Rosholt relay track meets. He didn't do very well at either. The wind raise havoc with Regionals and he just lost his concentration at the relays. He took 3rd in the Heavy weight relays (3 person 50 yard dash). He's been busy working at school on the weekends. He's got finals coming up but they don't seem like they are going to be tough. A couple of chapter tests and several projects.

Kyle had his last school baseball game. I didn't see it because I was watching Cole but Amy kept me updated. He did very well and finally got to play 1st. He's got 3 games next week for summer league already. Just trying to get him to finish his school on a positive.

Clay had a wonderful but very cold soccer game. He had a great assist with a goal. His coach told me he is a wonderful player. He's just been a busy kid. He has a carnival at school today and should be just wired tonight.

Bill and I have just been busy working and running around with the boys.

Busy week

Cole had a track meet on Monday and took 3rd in the discus. This is good since he has the conference meet on Saturday. He got chosen to attend the solar Olympics at the university today. He and another kid made a solar car that their teacher thought had a chance to win. They didn't place in the top 3 so he doesn't know how they did. Kids were there from all over the state.

Kyle had a great game on Monday. He hit very well and fielded well too. He's only got one more game for school then on to summer ball. He umpired last night and tonight. Bill just went to get him because the game got called because of rain. He's umping tomorrow night also if it doesn't rain.

Clay had an awesome soccer game on Saturday. He scored his first goal and was really excited. He had guitar lessons today and is doing well. If he'd practice more he'd be better.

Bill's on transportation duties this week since I'm working most nights. He got the boys a sponsor for their car. Marv gave them money to put a big energy star emblem on their car. The kids were really excited because it's enough to cover about 4 races.

I just found out that I'm still needed all next week at the place I'm helping out with. The person they hired hasn't got her temporary license yet.

That's the excitement in the Rogers' house this week so far. Jen and Troy have a great time!
Deb I hope you get your roof on soon. Then it'll seem like a real house.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy mother's day to all you wonderful, patient, caring and loving moms. Hope you enjoy your day. If you don't find this funny wait a couple of years it will be hysterical. By the way I did get a hug today. Off to play baseball.

Laughter and Tears

Kyle has to have about 20 pictures for an 8th grade graduation DVD they are putting together. I had pictures pretty organized until about 8 years ago. This is when things just got thrown into a big box. So I'm going through pictures and see Grandma Frost's 80th at Jacquie's. I see pictures of Sherrie without her hair and at all three weddings (remember D did this x2). I see Tim and I playing dress up and in the toy box which we emptied. I watch my son who is driving me crazy grow up before my eyes. I found a picture of Kyle's first pitching event. I believe he hit his first batter. I also see the good, the bad and the ugly bridesmaid dresses we all wore or choose. On a cold rainy day this was fun to see where we were and where we are. I do have to say with the exception of a couple of glibs, life has been pretty good so far. Thank you all for the wonderful memories. Here's to making more.

Motherhood?!!!!!!

Can I just say I would really, really, like to have the cute cuddly, mother worshipping children back? I know most mothers love it when their kids are in school. I HATE it. It's a huge fight all the time. Last night it ended with lots of screaming and a bedroom door getting ripped off the wall. Let's just say there is no longer any cell phone, car, going out, or racing this weekend. As of right now I'm not even sure I'll let him go watch the first virgin running of the car they built. A lot of the moms of these 17 year old boys are ready to join me and send them all to an island far, far, away. On the bright side he is now off academic suspension and can participate in tomorrows track meet. He even would like me to come and watch.

Kyle had a good game yesterday. He had a fantastic grab at third base and threw the guy out at first. He hit once up the middle, right over 2nd base. He walked twice and went down once looking. The guys batting ahead of him the 3rd time up were smashing it out and one was out of the park. Kyle was just waiting for the perfect pitch but got walked without a single strike thrown. He just looked at us and shook his head.

Clay just played the whole game.

As Scarlett O'Hara would say: "Tomorrow is just another day"

Happy Birthday!

Feliz Anos mi petite hermonia!!!!!
Hope this year rocks for you.
In your honor, after Kyle's baseball game, we are celebrating with Taco John's!
Love Ya!

Friday!!!

Well it's Friday night. I got my shopping I needed to get done, done. I'm about to hem and make my screen for the outdoor movie nights. Kyle is off to see the movie Wolverine. Cole is out working on the race car. Clay is in the tub. I think this kid should have grown gills by now. Bill's out helping with the car. After I'm done hemming I'm crawling into bed to watch a good movie. Not much going on nice easy night.
