Happy March (a little late)

Life as I know it will end today for at least 6 weeks. Baseball starts today with 3 games already scheduled for the week. The lawn chairs have been moved to their spot in the back of my SUV. I need to find the blankets that don't gather 1/2 of the dry grass in the area. I need to pack a little snack bag, saves me lots of $$$ not going to the concession stand. Went to look for Colton's long sleeve under armour shirt & found his baseball jacket in his closet. Where is that boys head. And I didn't find the under armour but every piece of clothing I found in his closet not hanging up was thrown in the middle of his bedroom floor. I'm going to make him pay me money for every piece of clothing I find on the floor then maybe he will start hanging things up. You think? I can hope can't I?

Our poor Max went thru some barbed wire he didn't see this morning & sliced his ear and a little spot on the back of his neck/head pretty good. After I got back to the house I tried to clean it up but he went into his dog house. Then later when I was cleaning up the blood off the back porch he wasn't around. After the boys went down for naps, I went out looking for him and he was over at the barn. He will come up to me but every time I try to look at his ear he goes off where I can't get to him. His ear was still dripping blood. Hopefully it will be okay!

Spring?

It was so hot here yesterday that on our way into town this morning we noticed our Bradford Pears had bloomed.



Now I'm thinking they are thinking they should've waited a little longer to come out, it is so cold today.

We Heart Max

Our dog Max.



Journaling ~ One of the things Max loves to do is rolling in the grass. On this day he had it all over him.

What I Learned Today

I learned that Tom Jones is from Wales. I had no clue. He was on The View today & I guess that is the first time I have ever heard him speak. Who knew? Not me!

The Next Karate Kid

Hannah entered her first sparring tournament today at her Karate Center. She was so nervous.



They are getting ready.



Facing her first opponent. She is friends with her. I think that would be weird, but it isn't to them. They did there thing and just went back to talking and giggling together.



In action! She won this round.



Facing her 2nd opponent. She is a year older and a head taller than Hannah. I don't think she is able to hang with her.



She is holding her own.



All done. Whew! glad that is over with.

So how did she do?

First place BAby! She was a little bit excited. She had eyed a trophy when we got there and she wanted it bad. They were letting the 1st place winners pick out their own trophy and she got the one she wanted, yea! All of the 1st place trophies belonged to the karate instuctor from when he was a little boy. I thought it was sweet and extra special.

Family picture of the Henrys taken on Christmas Day. I'm running out of pictures. Kids, you better watch out! Momma needs more pictures!!!!

Buttons

This is a 8x8 wall hanging I did for another challenge. We had to fill a butterfly with buttons, use flowers & bling. I've never in my life used this many buttons at one time for a project. I can see this being a great gift project for Hannah's friends.

Basketball is officially over for Colton and he starts baseball today along with after school practices. I only have 2 more nights to work at the concession stand. It has been nice to have extra spending money but I'm ready for it to be over.
