All-Star

Tanner had his second game of the season tonight! It was fun to watch he is already improving and hit everytime and did a good job fielding and playing third base. He's is such a cutie. Look out he's going to be pitching in a couple of weeks! (they start kid pitch 2 weeks into it-Landon has picked about 6 of the players to rotate through as pitchers) It was still way to cold for St. George. I had to wear a big sweatshirt, gloves, and earmuffs to the game.

Paper Route

Tanner has his first official job as a paper boy. This is the perfect job for him because it is only once every two weeks so it's not an everyday thing, but just enough to let him earn a little money without getting burned out. He has 170 papers to start and will probably be doing 200 before long. It's 5 cents a paper so not a whole lot but enough for a little boy, though he wasn't to sure about it when he found out he had to fold them all and put them in bags before he could deliver them.

Fold

Stuff
Stack
Deliver

Usually he will be able to ride his bike and deliver them after school but due to that fact that he has a ball game tonight at 6:00 we wouldn't have enough time so I got him up at six this morning and drove him around to do it and yes he ran and dropped them off at every house. He also did most of the folding and stuffing last night although I did help him just a little bit. I think this will be a good lesson in responsibility, hard work and money management.

T-Ball

T-Ball is a new experience for us. Tanner went right into machine pitch so it is quite a difference. Chloe had her first game and if it hadn't been so blasted cold and windy it would have been quite humurous and enjoyable. Hopefully we can have nice weather the rest of the season so the kids can have fun to and not just be out there freezing there buns off. What a cutie she is though. The only girl on her team all decked out with pink from her mitt to her batt.

What is the Deal?

My Sister in Law Taryn invited me to be part of her coupon blog -What is the Deal- so I will now be posting all my deals on that instead of on my family blog so if you like reading about the awesome deals I post ad this blog to your list http://whatisthedealthisweek.blogspot.com/.

Our Weekend

Here is what we spent the better part of our weekend doing.

They turned out nice but we were a little frustrated because after hours of messing around with the program we decided to just put the names on straight then after we had done six of them this way Landon figured it out so we were able to curve the last six. However I think they still turned out nice and you won't be able to tell that much of a difference when the boys are out on the field.

Thanks mom for letting us use the machine and for all the help.

LadyBugs!

Yesterday we did a little more work in the garden. We put in three kinds of onions and did some other work around it. In the next week or two we should be able to get everything else in. My mom bought the kids a little surprise while we were working-a whole tub of ladybugs. The spent a long time playing with them. They all thought they were so cool-except Taelor wouldn't have anything to do with them once the tub was actually opened. Ha Ha.
