Sports Filled Weekend

We had such a good weekend last weekend. The weather was amazing and we spent most of our time outside, which was great since it has rained almost every day since! Everyone is happier when we can be outside.
 
Last Friday night we headed to the Barons game. It was so much fun!
 
 The boys REALLY wanted to stay for the Friday night fireworks, but they went into delirious mode in the box and were being crazy. It would have been fine if it were with people that we knew, but these were all new co-workers of Joel's and this was the first time to meet them so we didn't want to overstay our welcome!
 We did get a visit from the mascot! That was fun although the boys weren't too happy with the fact that we got the "girl" one! They wanted the boy one! Oh well, they look pretty happy here!

 Saturday morning was beautiful! Hudson got a little vegetable garden from the Easter bunny and he could not wait to plant it, so we did that Saturday morning. This was such a fun activity. Hudson wrote the names of all the veggies, planted them all by himself, and he has made sure to water them daily. No progress yet, but hopefully soon! Once they grow large enough, we will transplant them from the egg carton into the ground, so I'm hoping that this will be the start of a little garden for us!



 The boys have been begging to get the jumpy out so we did that too! I thought that once we got the trampoline that we could get rid of this, but obviously not! It provided hours of entertainment! Of course, there wasn't a whole lot of actual jumping involved. They kept diving in from the side and were just rambunctious in there! It's only a matter of time before they pop a hole in it. Life with boys!

 Hudson had a birthday party mid day so I took him to that. Then it was more outside fun with neighbors before Hudson's baseball game that night. The Cardinals tied--it was a very nerve-wracking game and came down to the last batter! We headed to BAM after that for dinner....our new favorite place! I think everyone is starting to find out about it though! It was SO crowded!

Sunday was church and then an afternoon of sports! Harrison FINALLY got his turn to play for a change! He is playing 3 year old soccer this year. He's our bruiser and actually made the comment that he was going to "take someone down" at his game, but when it came down to it, he was definitely not so sure!

 He loved the practice portion of it and he was actually pretty good!



 When the game started, he wouldn't stay out there for more than about a minute at a time! He just kept asking when he could get his snack! My kids are always just in it for the snack! Ha!

 We bribed him to go back out there one more time and here he is on a break away! About a second after I took this picture, a little kid came up and picked the ball up with his hands and took it away and the moment was lost....but I would call it progress!

We can't wait for this Sunday. He is already talking about it, so maybe he just needs a little time to warm up to the whole idea. 3 year old soccer is absolutely insane, but they are SO cute!

After soccer, we headed to the tail end of Hudson's baseball practice. He has such a great group of boys and dads on his team. We are having a blast.

It was a great weekend! Hoping the rain goes away before this weekend coming up, but it's not looking so good.
