Hayden's Basketball Team (video at bottom)

Hayden is playing basketball with several of his buddies from Church. THey are QUITE the team. Hayden definitely likes baseball better than basketball - but he is working hard! This is his first year to play. Have fun watching! :)

Warm Weather

We've had some amazingly beautiful weather! Abby and Hayden played outside yesterday afternoon.... and here's some photo's.

They're very excited that Grandma's moved to town! They went and played for a while today while I hug out with Reghan. Nannie's coming tomorrow (yeahhhhh!!!!) so wow...they are in heaven!

Ok...GO check out the Yoda of Photography's blog for more Cooper Pirate coverage from last night. Shooting with Kristin has got to be the hands-down best time for me!

Lady Pirates Head to Regional Tourney!

WE BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a game! It's late, I'm tired...let the photos speak. Awesome game...April played AWESOME...Kimberli too...the WHOLE TEAM! We believe!

If you're reading this, and you don't know my friend Kristin...please go check out her blog. Katie's incredible senior pics are there (love you Katie!)... keep reading. Her friend Eli needs lots and lots of prayers. She's on her way to MD Anderson right now. God's still in the miracle business, I firmly believe. Believe. Believe. Pray for Eli, and pass this on to everyone.

Next game...Friday night, 8:30 p.m., United Spirit Arena, Lubbock, TX ... vs. Canyon. COME OUT and support our girls!

As for my blog group...count these as my fav-o-rite 5?? :) :) please???!!!!

Rhyan's First Game

GREAT JOB RHYAN!!!!!!!!

The Boy can play ball!

Kool Katie took these pics! She did an awesome job while I wrestled Abby & Hayden.

Rhyan played an awesome game. As you can see...he definitely gets INTO the game! Watching him brought lots of b-ball memories!

We're so proud of you Rhyan, and you played a great game!

Katie and I - along with Abby & Hayden - made the 2-hour trip to Midland Greenwood. (Click there to see a satellite view)Don't let the "Midland" in Greenwood fool you. Greenwood is in the middle of nowhere. It would be like calling Wilson "Lubbock Wilson".

Google Maps to the rescue!

MeMe Brooks made the haul as well with her video camera in tow. Thanks, MeMe for supporting Rhyan in a land far-far-away! And thanks Katie for the fun trip!

(I'm doing this new RAW file editting thing...so forgive the pic processing...lots of different colors...was the gym wall green or cream?! I can't remember.)

Pass the Pepper

Brenan's First Game & Wesley's Visit

Brenan played his first Junior High basketball game Monday night. He did great!

He plays on Cooper's 7th grade A-team.

He and Rhyan will play at the same time this season, so we'll be running back and forth to watch them both.

Good luck this year, Brenan!

Wesley was also in town this week on his Thanksgiving Break. I know Rhyan enjoyed the company (they had two camps...in front of the living room TV or in front of the bedroom playstation TV). This pic was taken just before we left to go to Brenan's game. We loved having Wesley and can't wait for him to come back. Wes has wonderful gift of being able to make anyone laugh at any given moment. Wes lives in Houston, and we sure miss him (as well as his Mom and Dad)!
