Anthony had a baseball tournament this weekend. He was asked to be a p
art of a select team. The select teams here in Texas are the traveling baseball teams. We were holding a tourney at our home field so they let them put a "bad news bears" team together. It wasn't nearly that bad. They actually picked kids from all the teams and Ant was picked from his team. WE are proud of our little baseball stud! Anyway the team was called Midland Roughnecks (having to do with the oil). They went 1-1-1. Pretty good for not ever playing together before. It was fun to get out there and watch it. That is my favorite thing, watching my kids play sports. 
Tim has got to give some encouraging words to Anthony before he bats, the mound is in a huddle too!

Yes! Safe at second, these pictures don't do him justice. This kid is fast, he stole second and was safe. He is fixin to steal third.....
Safe, at third! The next batter up would hit him in and his team would be up by three! 
Anthony was able to pitch the last two innings of the last game. He was super nervous, but he did awesome. He struck the first guy out. There was only one walk, the rest were hits. There was only two batters that made it across the home plate those innings. I know your thinking, that isn't very good. Trust me the other pitchers weren't doing good at all. Ant was the only one that got a strike out that game! I took more pictures but they didn't turn out, they were blurry. There WILL be more pictures when the regular teams starts.This is just a little extension to my Little Helper post.
Last night I steam cleaned my carpet. Conor came in and decided that he wanted to help. When I was pulling the steamer back, he was helping by pushing it. You can see the determination on his face. And then the gross stuff, as he was watching the dirty water go into the bucket, he was trying to drink it! Yuck! But that is my little boy, never worried about the gross stuff!
O-ya and notice his nice hair cut! No more shagginess. He looks like my handsome little boy again. And he sat in the chair all by himself!

Way to go, Anthony! That must be so fun to watch him play--sounds like he's pretty good! Why do toddlers think the gross stuff is the coolest?? Conor looks so cute! Lovin' the "no shirt" look!:)
I Love My Boys!
Hi Kym, I'm glad you found my blog from Kara. Yeah, small world me and your sister being in the small ward. When she told me you live in Texas, I thought how sad your only sibling lives so far away. Keep in touch.
sorry, Kym the last post is from me, Shannon. I am on my mom's computer and forgot that she is logged on.
Every time I go to a high school baseball game to watch my students I think about you watching your little boys. I wish you all could come and visit! It would be fun, but I don't even want to go anywhere with one little guy, so I can't imagine three.
Did U tell the boys that Granpa Kimble almost played minor league baseball as a catcher & your granma Michelle had one or two nephews play in the minors and Az majors.
Well I look at your post and think um I need to write more about my kids, gosh im so self absorbed! I love this post, these are things your going to want remember forever!
