Baseball!

Can you believe we have been through a month of baseball and I have only blogged once about baseball....I must be sick right!  Well it is just something I have really been behind on... but tonight I will make up for it!

These were from last Thurs...
                       

He has been playing pitcher most games and has done pretty good.  His hitting is doing good also we have days were we use the Tee then there are days were he can hit it.  We have been proud of him.  I will post some more baseball pictures soon.

Car Show and the Richmond Girls dance at the Dogwood fest..

Weekend before last we went up to Crockett to see Tim mom (please keep praying for her) and get my father in law out of the house.  So he has been talking about the car show they have during the dogwood fest in Palestine.  So Tim, Zach and I got up there early and Zach and I took his dad off while Tim stayed and took care of his mom.  I wasn't sure how long we would be up there but I figured any time would be good for him.  So we got there early enough that we got to see the parade and well I had talked my parents into coming up with their car the '38 Chevy.. When we got there the parade was just starting they had all kinds of small floats and lots of cars.

Dad's car

Zachary was super excited when Gram-maw motioned for him to come and get in the car.. she said he waved to everyone as he went by.

After the parade we went over to where they had the car show and met up with mom, dad, and Zachary.  The Richmonds minus Alan were already there and hanging out with my mom and Zach.  We talked to them a bit and then they had to walk over to where the girls were going to dance so they walked over and the rest of us checked out all of the cars.  This year there weren't a bunch of old cars there were more mustangs which were fun to look at also.  But from the old cars we did see I mostly got stuff like this..

Then it was on to watch the Richmond girls dance!  I love watching these girls!

It was a great day for all of us.. it was neat to see Zachary with his Paw-Paw and DziaDzia

Daytona day 2!!!!

Jazz Regional

This past Saturday Zach and I went to see Brenden perform in the Jazz Regional concert.  This was the first time that he competed in the Jazz contest.  He made it past Area, then regional and came in 22nd in the State which is really great!  We are really proud of him!  But this concert was for anyone that were tope in the region. 

The Sam Houston Jazz professor was the director for the kids.  Which was really great for Brenden!

We were even treated to Brenden playing the flute.  I haven't seen or heard this before so it was a treat and he did really well.

They had a special guest come in from LA to play with them and boy this man could play the sax we were all very impressed with him.

After they were done with their performance they had two other jazz bands from Lone Star College, Brenden wanted to stay and listen to them so Zach and I stayed and boy we were glad we did it was very entertaining.  They played with the special guest also and it was very entertaining.

We are so proud of you Brenden!
