Chayse T-Ball

Chayse gets to play T-Ball this summer and he was so so excited to start! Technically you can't start til you are 5, but he is close enough! He is doing great and having a blast! They had their second game on Monday and it was a lot of fun to watch. They dont keep track of score and they let everyone have a turn at batting, so its a great way to get them use to baseball and ready for coach's pitch! Here are a few pics of our little slugger man!

Christmas Party!

(WARNING: slightly long post!)
On Saturday night, we had our good friends, The Congers , over for a little Christmas party! It's always fun when they come from Twin Falls, and can spend time with us! I made really yummy sweet pulled pork enchiladas, that my sister gave me the recipe for. (Let me know if you are interested in the recipe, its very comparable to the ones at Costa Vida) After dinner we hung out, chatted, exchanged gifts and had some delicious peppermint ice cream! It was fun getting the kids together and letting them play. As time goes by, the age difference between them (5 mos) seems to matter less and less. They play pretty well together, though Chayse seems to want to be more affectionate and she is beginning to think boys have cooties! :) Here are some pics from our fun evening! I just wish they lived back in Logan, so we could get together lots, like the old times! We miss you guys already! :)

We had lots of fun and were sad to have our party be over, but we look forward to the next time they come into town and can come play! I was being my emotionally preggo self, and telling Tegan that night how lucky I feel to have such a great friendship with her! There are few times in your life that you get the opportunity to meet someone who just "gets you and still loves you". I can tell her the most random wierdest things, and she just understands, and whats more..she is probably thinking the same thing! I was really sad when she moved way to Twin, but our friendship has stayed strong. Thank goodness for internet and cell phones right? Haha! Anyway, just wanted to thank you Tegan for all the fun times, endless phone conversations, fabulous recipe advice, gossip sessions, "kid time" with our little ones, sneaking away to breakfast, work "experiences", numerous shopping trips, craft times, and the shoulder or ear you always offer when I need someone to chat with you! I love you for being such an awesome friend!
