Catching Up

Saying it's been a while since I last wrote is kind of an understatement.  It has been way to long. There is no real important reason just the fact that we have been beyond busy.  We have literally been non stop for 2 months.  Barely time to breathe not much time to sit and write.  School and sports are finally coming to an end for this season.  I can't wait for summer to officially begin.  It certainly feels like summer here in south Texas.  It's been in the upper 90s for about a month now. 

After Al passed I helped my mom for about a month.  She sold her house without it ever being on the market.  A friend of a friend was looking in the area for a home her size and looked at it one day, and bought it the next.  A huge blessing.  I bet I know who was doing the negotiating up in heaven!  She didn't plan on selling right away, but just couldn't pass on the offer.  She moved to her "second home" which is a beautiful condo on the ocean.  She is adjusting and trying to fit all of her "stuff" into 3,000 sq ft of LESS space than she had before.  With the help of my hubby she now has some beautiful built-ins that will accommodate all the important things like shoes and handbags.  You can read about her journey here. 

Delilah just finished up her softball season, and did great. We had such a great season!  She also received an award from the local Water and Soil Conservation District for winning 1st place for their poster contest. 

She was so excited, and even more excited about her cash prize she received.  Lilah is still in gymnastics and is training to compete in level 4 this year!  She is almost finished with 2nd grade and almost 8! I just don't know where time goes. 

Celeste turned the big 5!  We had her party at the gym where they go to gymnastics.  All this kids had such a great time, and I loved it because I didn't have to keep the kids entertained!

Celeste is almost finished with her first year of t-ball.  She just loved playing and at this age, its so fun to watch the kids play! 

Celeste is also still in gymnastics and she will be competing in level 3 this season!  She is almost finished with pre-k and she is beyond excited about Kindergarten in the fall.  I know she will do great and have so much fun! 

Trinity also had a birthday.  She is now 3!  We were in Houston visiting family on her birthday, so my aunt made her a cake which she just loved!

She looks like such a big girl now!  I'm not sure what happened to her baby face.  Trinity is almost finished with ballet, and will have her recital next weekend.  She has informed me that she does NOT want to do ballet again!  I thought she liked it, but I guess not.  Her favorite thing to do is play with her baby dolls.  All 25 of them! 

While in Houston we went to the Astros/Padres game.  We have a friend who is a pitcher for the Padres and we got to watch him pitch.  The girls also loved it because of all the treats they get at a baseball game!

We also took the girls to the Children's Museum which was so much fun!

 Easter was also great.  We had a wonderful church service, and a delicious lunch at church.  My husband took this picture of me and the girls before church.  I think its now my new favorite!

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
