Our Rookie 5 Baseball Player!!

Dane began his first sports activity this spring...We signed him up to play Baseball on a Riverton City League. His team is the Pillies and he had a "Ball" playing with his team. He loved going to all the games even though he did not understand the concept of the game too much in the begining...but hey I guess you have to start somewhere...practice, practice!

Dane has learned a lot about baseball now. He told me the other day..."I want to play Baseball Everyday Mom". He met lots of new friends and one of his favorite friends on the team was a boy named Dylin. Here is some video and pictures from his games. They are quite entertaining and fun to watch.

I Want To Be A "Baseball Player" When I Grow Up!!

Here is some video from Dane's Pre-School Program. He tells us his name and that he wants to be a "Baseball Player" when he grows up!

Dane's Pre-School Graduation May 28, 2009

Dane had his Pre-School Graduation on Thursday, May 28, 2009. He was so excited to do his nursery rhyme for his family and friends. He did a great job in saying his part...he even said it this time instead of giggling. All the pre-school kids sang lots of songs together that were very cute. As you can see from the pictures above Dane has an infectious smile and was thrilled to be graduating from pre-school. We are so proud and excited for you..."Our Great Dane Is Growing Up". We wish you the best as you begin Kindergaten!!

Mother's Day Weekend In Mendon!

We went up to the Baker's in Mendon for Mother's Day. We had a fun visit. Drew, Dane & Luke especially had a great time playing on the swings, riding on the four wheeler with Grandpa, and feeding the cows. Luke had a great time after church smelling and playing in the flowers and walking around in the backyard. Luke loves to be outside...I can't really blame him after being cooped up all winter long.

Our Gymnastic's Girl!!

Drew doing some of her gymnastics moves!!!

You Go Girl...Drew Doing Gymnastics!!!

Drew has been taking gymnastics from Jolley's Gymnastics here in Riverton. She started last September of 2008, so she has been taking for eight months. She loves going to gymnastics and seems to be catching on fast. As a mom I am pleased with her progress. Drew can now do her back walk over, a back bend, and kick over by herself. She continues to work hard on getting her cart wheels, her front walk over and her splits. This is a video of Drew doing her back walk over and her cart wheels at gymnastics. Drew is in the light pink leotard with her teacher.

HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY DANE!! We Love You!

Dane turned 5 years old on April 8th....he is so excited. He knows when you turn 5 you get to do lots of BIG BOY stuff like go to kindergarten, play on the rookie baseball team and he just learned how to ride his bike. Dane had his first Birthday party at the South Jordan indoor swimming pool where he invited a few of his good friends to come and splash around with him. Dane got a scooter, a basball bat, mit, and a ball for his birthday.

The same week of Dane's Birthday we went to St. George for spring break with the extended Baker family...although we stayed at Grandma and Grandpa Hill's house in St. George since it was a nice free place. Drew and Dane loved being in St. George since they could see and visit both grandparents. Some of the fun things we did were swimming every night at the "Baker Hotel", going to the Carnival in Nevada, the Arts Festival, and going to Chuck-A-Rama with all the cousins. Drew and Dane loved seeing the Mama Pig with all her 11 or so babies, going on the roller coaster and the ferris wheel. We all had a great time.
