9/28/15 Hailey had a volleyball game at Holy Crtoss



The boys got right at their homework and finished it fast.


Hailey did great at her volleyball game!


Here she is in action.  She just hit the ball over





Thought it was cute that the three girls in this row had the same kind of shoes.


Hailey sounded so good when she practiced.


Jack having his snack


Max having his snack

Got up at 5:30 so I could be sure to get the kids to school on time.  The got ready so fast, they had a half our to sit and wait.  We practiced memory work then and again on the way to school.  Went to Vikki's after I dropped them off and visited with her a few minutes.  I ran Evan to school for her and took him into his room.  Went back to Vikki's and she, Kenzie and I had breakfast burritos that she had made and froze.  They were so good.  I will be making some of those.  Thanks Vikki.
Came home and got some stuff done.  Then dad and I did our care group lesson and also I did my Wednesday night lesson.  Went to Penney's and then to get the kids. We got home and they had a snack and then started their homework right away.  Did  it petty quickly and then we ate and headed to Vikki's.  She watched them while I went to talk and pray with the Elder's wives.  Went back to pick them up.  Came home had another snack, read the Bible, Prayed and tucked the boys in.  Hailey and I stayed up and I helped her with her knitting.  Then I tucked her in.

Picture Juaquin took while watching at the planetarium

Loved getting to see Isaac and Evan today

Love this cute pic of Vikki's

Hailey holding Abby, Me holding Mocha and Isaac

Hailey and I were happy to see our doggies.  Peyton wanted to be in the picture and then Isaac got in the other one and she got out.

Picked up Mocha and she loved sitting in Jack's booster seat ha ha

Made chilliy and the kids are loving it and eating really good.  So easy too!





There was a blood moon tonight.  It was cloudy, but the clouds moved out just in time to watch the whole thing.  The kids were excited to see the beginning of it.  I asked them if they wanted me to wake them up to see it when it looked orange and they all said yes.  Well it was impossible to wake Max and Jack.  They were sleeping so sound I couldn't believe it.  Hailey woke up, looked out the window fast and then fell back asleep.  She didn't even remember it in the morning ha ha!




Loved having Hailey, Max and Jack.  We went to church then came home and they watched a movie while I made chili.  We had some nachos and my homemade salsa as a snack to hold us over.  Then we ate.  Hailey and I went to pick up Mocha while Bill watched the boys.  When we got home the boys and Hailey played outside and jumped in the trampoline.  Can't believe I didn't take any pictures.  Hailey remembered to put her tooth under her pillow tonight.  She forgot last night because it was so late when we got home.  We watched another movie tonight and had popcorn.  Read the Bible, then the three kids read a book where they all took turns with parts.  Loved tucking them in and listening to their prayers.  Max did a great job memorizing his memory verse today and did excellent on his spelling. Only missed 3 words of 20 and didn't even study them.  Now he's got the other ones down.

Hailey on the ride to Comerica Park to see the Tigers play

Max on the ride there!

Max and Papa at Applebee's.  We tried to go to Bob Evans on the other end of town but the power was out so everything was closed.  This was a mile the other direction and we were happy to see it was open

Hailey and Nana at Applebee's in Royal Oak

Max loved all the tigers all over the stadium


There was a big line to get pictures here.  It was finally our turn and none of us noticed this kid running to get in the picture until we looked at the pictures.  I should have turned the camera but I was hurting and didn't notice I wasn't getting the whole head in there.


Here's our extra boy in the picture with us...Love the picture of Papa, Max and Hailey

Waiting to ride the baseball ferris wheel

This is what the ferris wheel looks like

Hailey and Max...we were getting close to getting on the ride

Hailey lost her tooth eating a milky way at the game.  It broke in two.  She looses her teeth in some interesting places.

Nice night view

Our favorite player, Miguel Cabrera, number 24
It was beautiful weather, still in the 70's at 9:30.  We had so much fun and Hailey and Max were so good.  They loved the snack hole as Kenzie calls it in the backseat that goes to the trunk.  I put lots of snacks in there for them.

So fun to watch our National Evangelist for CMA and his wife looking at their treasures and telling us what they were going to do with them.

Lots of ATV's and a beautiful day for them to ride.

Guess Bill wants this for Christmas now ha ha.

Wes and Bill wanted to walk to see where the rustic campground parking was.

Next thing we knew, they were leaving us and walking back

These great people from the Flint Chapter sure were hospitable and so nice to us.

We all went to Ponderosa in West Branch afterward for dinner.  Made it right before 4 p.m. so got the senior buffet and free drink.  $6.99 special for each of us young people.

Went to the Sports Zone to walk.  Bill had already walked and was sitting playing Eucre when I got there.  He had just tried 2 lone hands and got euchred.  The guys were really razzing him. I only walked a mile and then had to come home and put my motorcycle stuff on.  We left at 9:45 to meet Wes and Gayla at Pat's and rode up to St. Helen.  What a beautiful day for a ride.  We had so much fun.  Stopped for a big cinnamon roll and coffee in Gladwin at one of Bill's favorite bakery.
