February fun!

Jason and Reid (and Isaac) headed to the land to play a few weeks ago.  The boys demolished this stump with machetes (safe? um, no says the Mom).  Reid was glad to reciprocate a land visit as he has been able to go to Isaac's ranch a lot.  Ours is "more rustic" than his...


Dad was best man in Steve's wedding. Friends for decades (and decades...)

Blanket fort night led to a brothers-only (oh, DARN!) game of Monopoly.  Look closely.  Poor Reid got destroyed.  He has $1.


You cannot really read it... BUT, Kyle got 2nd place in the SMS Geography Bee!  Who knew?!?

...because he likes to spend his time calling my name on his phone "Spawn Point" rather than Mom...

I enjoy my Our Daily Bread days.  Here is part of the crew from our church (see GG in there?!).  It is a fun way to meet different people than those who normally cross my path at church.

Valentines to Jason - bouquet of mini donuts.

The boys got decorated donuts.

For the night of Valentine's, we delivered 20 Positive Signs around town and just as we were heading home, got a phone call from a legit emergency patient.  Reid was with us so I put him to work shredding documents and paid him $4.  He LOVED it!

Our college ministry arranged a Habitat for Humanity work day.  We ended up being split in to 2 groups - the college kids did work on a house site, and five of us left to go build an ADA ramp for a 9 year old.


The boys have been taught by their amazing dad a lot of "manly" skills, included sawing and screwing in and nailing.  However, this situation forced Grant to do it on his own.  The older men were patient and helpful to us all.  It was a super morning!






I love Reid's toes... but I love that he and Eddie both fell asleep on the bed together even more!

Reiders got in to the Gifted and Talented program at his school!
YEA, buddy!  

2020 OSU baseball will soon end up at O'Brate Stadium.  My folks braved the freezing weather and went to get tickets (based on Posse points).  We were able to get amazing seats - like the view below?!  We do, too!  Mom and dad are behind home plate with their buddies.  We are on top of the dugout in the action!


Reid and Tucker at an OSU game! They did catch a lot of foul balls!

He has been dirty... but never like this.

He later fell asleep on my lap - all was forgiven. HA!

Mr. Grant is now 15!  
He had two celebrations - Nana came up to visit a day early and we had a fast dinner out!


On his actual day, we started the morning with donuts for the carpool gang - Jordan, Kaylee and Owen.

That night, we had literally 45 minutes between baseball practice and an enrollment meeting.  We met at Texas Roadhouse, in shifts, to get fed and out the door to the high school.




He got a bow and arrows...

Split between us and GG and Bubba. 

This was fun mail to get!!!  Way to go, Kyleeeeee!

Reid played in a KLife Dodgeball tournament on Saturday.  It was at the facility where Grant used to play baseball.  These banners were new - fun to see G's name up there, twice!


Team Pokes!

Coop, Isaac, Reid and Breck


Stretching... b/c they're THAT serious about a dodgeball tournament!



One of two still standing... for a second!


Disciple Now at our church - Grant and Kyle participated and I was a driver for the service project.

Reiders LOVES to groom the fields. 

This was from the Pioneer's first scrimmage.  Grant got his first hit (on his first at bat). I love the support and enthusiasm from both Grant and Coach Little.
