Summertime...And The Livin's Easy!!

This post is just to fill you guys in on the past few weeks. We have been so busy since school has been out, trying to get to doctor appointments, running errands, cleaning, etc....But there has been some fun, summertime events going on as well.

I told you about my new dog, Zoey. Here is a picture of her after her first trip to the groomer. I told them I wanted a big pink bow in her hair!! I am "pinking" her up as much as possible since I never had a girl to do that to! Isn't she cute???!!!
I bought Chris tickets to a Texas Rangers game, so we went last weekend to watch them play the A's. (I think the score was 14-1, so it was a good game to go to..lots of action)

The boys LOVE their new Ranger shirts. If I'm not paying attention, Hunter will "try" to wear his EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! Do any of your kids do that?

The boys in front of the NEW Dallas Cowboys stadium!!My friend, Danielle, that moved to Houston, TX (Katy) last year, came home and stayed with her parents for a couple of weeks. She just had a baby a few months ago, and I just realized I didn't get a picture of him!! She invited us over to swim, so we went and had a wonderful time catching up, swimming, and holding babies!! I miss her so much!!
The boys playing at her pool.......

We are now finished with baseball. Hunter's team, The Rivercats, finished 16-3. He tried out for All-Stars and we'll find out tomorrow if he made it. I will let you know!!! Hunter improved so much this season! In the beginning, I would get nervous about him striking out when he got up to bat, but the 2nd half of the season, I was confident he would put the ball into play (and it would be a good hit)

If you know me at all, you know I have always been a nail-biter. Well, I have FINALLY let my nails grow up, but my oldest son has picked up my bad habit! It drives me CRAZY to see him bite his nails!!! Here is proof for him that he does this between EVERY pitch!!!
And here's what Hayden does before the game starts while "Bubba" is warming up!

I also just bought a new car last week!! My lease on my 4Runner was up, so I've been trying to decide what to get. I have owned Toyota vehicles for the past 12 years, but our Toyota car dealer opened his own dealership, which is GM, so I decided to give him a chance. I test-drove the GMC Acadia and fell in love with it!
My 4Runner had 3rd row seating, but it was very difficult to get to and we didn't use it nearly as much as I thought we would. So, I got bucket seats on the 2nd row of this vehicle to make it easier to get to the back.
Other than that, the boys have been doing typical summertime things.....playing in the sprinkler, going to birthday parties, having sleepovers, etc.... I just started Zoey in a puppy obedience class that will last for 8 weeks, Hunter is signed up for basketball and football camps at Har-Ber, and Chris is gone several weekends for football stuff, and we go on our cruise to Cozumel in 2 weeks, so it will be a busy, busy summer!! Hope you have a wonderful one as well!!!
