HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY AND GRADUATION

WOW I can't believe my baby girls is 18, and graduated on the same day. May 29th. It was a really great day. Karissa had alot of people there to support her. Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, Cousins,friends and family. I was able to get lots of pictures of her. Karissa got the opportunity to sing the National Anthem with about 9 other girls. That was pretty cool. If you notice in some of the pictures she has on a mask, it was a tribute to one of Karissa's girlfriends who last year was diagnosed with Anaplastic Large Cell (ALC) Lymphoma, cancer. McKenzie a few weeks back had a Bone Marrow Transplant and was not expected to make it to her graduation. She was bound a determained to make it and she did and also walked. After the graduation we went to Carrabbas for dinner, that was alot of fun we had about 25 people there and the food was yummy. Karissa we are so proud of you and all that you have accomplished. You are an amazing and beautiful girl and we love you very much. Have an wonderful time at Snow you deserve it!!!!!

Baseball Tournament in Idaho

We had a Baseball tournament in Idaho this past weekend with Josh's team. It was a lot of fun. We got there Thursday night and the boys went right for the pool. We were told it was heated........Nope. The water was so cold. They got good use of the Jacuzzi. Our first games started on Friday. The boys won their first game 12-0. They were very excited about that. Before the second game the temp started to drop. By the time the game started it was 39 degrees and raining. As the game went on it started to sleet. I stayed in the car and cheered from there. They lost that game 6-8. They tried really hard. That night the boys all hung out together and I found out the next day they didn't go to bed until after 3 am. I wasn't happy about that cause I knew that the boys wouldn't be ready for the game. Well that was the case. We lost our first game 6-12. The second game of the day was not going very well either. We were at our last up and had 2 outs on us. We were down 10-1. Then all of a sudden the boys decided to start hitting, and did they hit!!!! One of the players had back to back in the park home runs. WOW! By the time we finally got our 3rd out we had scored 12 runs. We won that game 13-10. We had a really good time on the trip.
