OUR LITTLE SLUGGER

Jana sent us pix of Joah's first baseball game. We've got ourselves a ballplayer!!!! He got a hit both times he was up (and that is being pitched to) and he is ONLY 4 years old. That'a boy!!! He also fielded the ball. You know what though it doesn't matter if he didn't do anything out there Grandma and Grandpa would still think he is a cutie!!! But it is nice to finally have an athlete in the family. LOL

Our slugger

Seeing who is watching me

I am ready for that ground ball

Don't these guys know we are suppose to be playing baseball?

This does kind of wear you out though

Best part of the game - the snacks afterwards!!

EXPERIMENTING WITH PHOTOSHOP

I have an idea for the rehearsal dinner and so I was experimenting with PhotoShop. I liked the way these pix turned out. Tell me what you think, please. :D

SHOWER SEASON HAS BEGUN

This weekend we had 2 showers for Jen, so much fun. The first one was in Rock Island on Friday night. It was nice meeting Jen's and her mother's friends. On Saturday Marla McGinn had a shower for Jen here in the "Burg." I can't believe my baby is getting married, but he found himself one nice girl and we can't wait to welcome her into our family.

A little apprehensive about this whole shower thingy

Guests were giving Jen some marital advise - message expressed the most "Don't go to bed mad"

Let the opening begin

Some pretties

The beautiful cake and table at the G'burg shower

What a nice Easter weekend. A great time was had by all. Eight more weeks!
