Mom is retired.

My mom retired. After 30 years of teaching. She finally hung up her whistle, turned out the lights and the left the building. I'm sure it's not going to be the last time she returns. She loves those kids and I bet she goes back to substitute. My sister Jessica, Chase and I drove down to southern utah and suprised her. Jess had a few tricks up her sleeve and we entertained the class a little while. We took her out to lunch at the Sagebrush Cafe. It was really good food. I love going home. Chase couldn't understand how I knew everyone. I never went to this elementary school, but Jessica did.

Mom whatcha going to do with all your free time? Travel, Garden, Read, and watch plenty of Baseball Games just to name a few.

Her last class.

Her last time taking her last class to lunch.

The school will seem empty with out her.

Where we ate lunch on Monroe mainstreet. Yes it could be out of an old western movie.

Another look at Monroe mainstreet.

Peyton Birthday

Check out my business blog Tender Treasures. I just posted the cutest birthday pictures of Peyton. They were taken clear back in February. There was no snow on the ground and it was in the high 60's. Wow, Mother Nature is losing it.

Lets get ready for some Baseball

Baseball. I thought I disliked that word. When Dan and I were first married, every weekend he would drag me to tournament after tournament so he could play. I couldn't understand the love he had for the game. He dragged me every where. All over Utah, Nevada, Colorado, Idaho. ALL OVER TARNATION. The best part was I made some great friends, as I sat there watching him play every weekend. I thought baseball was Okay but didn't love it. I could have been doing a MILLION other things, I would have enjoyed more. Well, the years have passed and now I get to watch Chase play ball and I LOVE IT. Who would have thought. There is something very special for me to watch Dan coach Chase. I see that love Dan has for baseball come out into the kids. We have a great team and most important we are all friends. Life couldn't be sweeter.

Like Father Like Son.

I love this picture and the look on Brads face. It was intense, but he made it. With a slide and safe at home.

Every game the boys eat a bag of seeds each. I caught Ty in the action.

Parker Safe at Home Plate.

I tried to post some different shots, sense I'm sure there will be a ton of baseball to come.
