Did Someone Say a New Swimming Pool?

WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!!! We have decided to put in a swimming pool and can hardly wait. Cason says it will be ready in 3 days but we are thinking more like 4-5 weeks. Today the boys went out in the backyard with the sledgehammer (scary I know) and started taking out the curbing. Ty did the pounding while Brae and Case put it in the wheelbarrow. I loved to see our boys working together. Stay tuned for more "in progress" pictures to come.

Ready, set, hit!!!!!! Way to use those muscles Ty!

How about a kiss Cason?

Ok, so this is kind of gross but I couldn't resist putting it on the blog. Ollie and Cason have never had a very good relationship you could say. It all stems from Ollie getting kicked numerous times as a puppy by Case. Well, I was excited today to see that Ollie has forgiven him.

Cason's End of the Baseball Season Party.....

Cason was so cute at his end of the Baseball Season Party. He was so proud of his trophy with his own name on it. He has waited a long time to have his own trophy. He really has a love of the game. He would rather watch a baseball game than cartoons. Is that normal? I guess so coming from our family. GREAT JOB TO OUR LITTLE ALL-STAR!Cason receiving his trophy from Coach Donnie.
Cason couldn't be prouder that he has his OWN trophy!

Brae's 3rd Grade Awards Assembly

Cason closing another chapter.....Preschool!

Well Cason is officially done with preschool and it didn't bother him a bit. Now his mommy on the other hand was a whole different story. Here are a few picture of his last days of preschool. We love you Cason and STOP GROWING UP SO FAST!!!!!!!

Cason the morning of his Water Fun Day at Preschool. He was so excited about his surf shirt (Ty has the same one, just bigger:)) and his water shoes. He had a great time and sure didn't come home looking as clean as he went. (The sandbox at preschool was the beach!)

Our D-Back Catcher

What a fun baseball season we have had. I almost don't know what to do with myself now that it is over. I don't think there is anything better than watching my boys on a baseball field having the time of their life. Brae loved playing catcher and got to end his last game of the season in that position. Ty loved seeing his brother play the position that he loves so much! Great Job Brae!

A Superstar Daddy!

For the last 2 years, Bret has played in the Battle of the Badges Softball Tournament. It a charity tournament in which the proceeds go to help a officer's family or to another cause. This year Bret played with his MAGNET unit and they called themselves the Bangers. They won their first three games, but lost their fourth and were removed from the tournament. We had so much fun watching our daddy play and the boys thought it was great to see him on the baseball field instead of them. We are proud of you daddy!
