He Got A Hit


Dad left yesterday to go to Salt Lake for a pool function with the marines. They had drill instructors from San Diego doing a physical training day with all the recruits waiting to go to boot camp. He screamed all day and came home with a soar throat. He had an eventful day was so ready to be home. He was hungry and tired.

During Xander's t-ball game today he hit the ball his first way up to bat. He hit the ball on the third coaches pitch. It went over the coach's head over towards third base. He just stood there and we all screamed drop the bat and run. He ran to first turned around and had the biggest grin on his face. He just yelled, "I didn't have to use the tee." He was so happy.


After the game Mom took the kids to the Pocatello Zoo. This was our first time since moving here over a year ago. The kids still remember other zoos and were shocked when we pulled up. They all yelled, "Is this it!!!" They could not believe how small it actually was and that there was such a small amount of animals there. We got to go over to the petting zoo but there was a group of young girls doing service and painting all the fences. There was red pain everywhere and Mom was so worried the kids would get this paint all over themselves. They proved Mom wrong and were very careful going in and out of the petting area. They had a blast in the play area and the tree house that they have for the kids to climb in. Brayden especially loved the dirt. All in all it was a fun afternoon even though our kids have been spoiled with so many other bigger (great) places we have visited or lived near.

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

Monster Trucks

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
