Tball Favorites and "a possible poo"

Since I help coach t ball I have absolutely no time to take pictures at the games. I actually prefer it this way. The games go a lot faster because I am in the action and I like the interaction I now have with all the kids. But I feel like my kids that play end up a little cheated because I walk away from the "season" with not as many pictures as in seasons past. Luckily, my mom came yesterday and took a bunch of pictures for me. So I decided to take my favorites that she took and combine them with my few that I took at the first game and call them " tball favorites".
Then, oh my gosh, have you guys watched Melissa Raymond on Youtube? She is one of my favorite human beings alive. She reminds me of a WAY hyper and prissy version of my dear friend, Miss Melanie. So Melissa or MELMPHS as she calls herself in the social media world, does hair and makeup tutorials. Since I am brain dead when it comes to those two things, I started watching videos to get makeup and hair ideas. Well, I stumbled onto Melissa's videos by accident but fell in love with her immediately. She makes me laugh. And my kids love her too. So much so that we now quote her around the house. So she has these video series called, Friday Favorites with a Possible Poo and they are hilarious. Mostly because of the way she says poo! She had my kids at poo. So we've started calling things possible poos. Like I'll say, "Taylor, Myles and Easton are my Friday favorite but Jack is acting like a possible poo!" She also has a THICK southern accent so the way she says things like "oily" and biscuit" just make us giggle. Anyway, I LOVE her idea of sharing her favorite things. So I am thinking I might start that. I don't know of enough cool stuff or have enough things to do it weekly, but I was thinking that maybe to liven up my random picture posts I would include a friday favorite or a possible poo product to share with "ya'll". Anyway, so here are my t ball favorites:



















And here is my possible poo.Nope. It's a DEFINITE poo. (And it smells like poo too...)

This stuff is all natural and is supposed to be awesome for dry skin. I bought it for a mild flare up of bacne (acne on the back) that I was having. And it worked awesome for that. But that was it. There are no chemical antibacterial properties in it so it doesn't kill germs. And it is thick and slimy and smells weird. THEN (and this is the worst part) it leaves behind a faint...dirty diaper smell. So I am sending it back to AMAZON asap. Don't try it. It's called Kiss My Face Organic Olive Oil Soap. bleh.

Orem Owlz

Tristian is the BEST!!! She gave Kendrick and I her vouchers for hers and Harold's Pass of All Passes. And we were able to use our new passes last Wednesday night to go see an Orem Owlz game. There is nothing special about the Orem Owlz. I just really wanted to watch a firework show on Pioneer Day and there were only a handful to choose from. And other than the free fireworks at Liberty Park (which Kendrick was not willing to go to) all the other firework shows cost money. Orem Owlz was the cheapest. We talked the Clark family into hanging out with us again and they met us at the park for a relaxing night of baseball. Again, Matt was a turd and went home before the fireworks even began...I'm thinking he is scared of fireworks...that, or he hates our stinking guts...

It was one of my favorite firework shows to watch because from where we were sitting we could see the guys lighting off the fireworks: which would be MY DREAM JOB by the way! I paid more attention to the guys lighting them off then I did to the actual fireworks. Can you imagine getting PAID to start fires!?

The game was fine. The field is darling but the general admission area was really over crowded. Heidi and I spent more than 30 minutes in line for drinks so that was kind of a bummer. And they charge you $3 to let your kids play on the playground so there were lots of little hoodlums running around unsupervised. Why do people not watch their kids? I would be a nervous wreck if my kids weren't always in my sight at a crowded sporting event.

Being that K and I got in for free-we would totally do it again! I'm thinking as a date night though. Anyone else have a Pass Of All Passes and want to join us?

Thank you again Tristian for giving us those vouchers! We are so happy to have them! And they will get PLENTY of use.

They were filming a movie there that night so they gave everyone in the crowd owl glasses. If you take the owl eyes out they are actually totally comf and cool.

Spring Baseball 2013 part 2

The boys had their last baseball game of the season on Thursday night and we were so happy to be done. I am ready to have Thursday night free again. I loved this season though and loved the team we had. If it weren't for my strong dislike of some of the parents, I would probably try to keep this team together. We were 15 minutes early to the last game and our team was all 15 minutes late. But I actually counted it as a blessing because it gave me a chance to get some cute pictures of my boys playing ball with Kendrick.

A few minutes into our game a familiar face showed up and I was beyond thrilled to see him, our friend Jim was Kendrick's Dad's best friend and has been such a support to us through the years. I couldn't believe he drove all the way out from the "west side" to come see our 6 year old baseball team play. It was such a fun season and if Kendrick would be up for it, I would totally help him coach again. We had a lot of fun and made so many fun memories and a few good little buddies.
