Sadness

I am really upset about CSI. I just can't believe how it ended. I just wanted to scream. I love all three CSIs but tonight, I cried. I am just really sad.
Red had a softball game tonight. She did AWSOME. She did a ground double, got hit, and hit another ground double tonight. She made it home safe each time. This was a good team. It looks like we will be moving up a level in softball because we are beating all the teams by alot. We have a tournament this weekend. Should be fun.

Tid bits

Things here are busy as always. Softball is in full swing. We have a big game on Thursday and a tournament. Yah. Bad thing summer has hit. Yep, thats right. We are going to be in the 90s. We haven't been able to get out of the 60s and now the heat wave. I had to go out a buy sunscreen for Red. The poor girl just fries. Softball games in the heat. Gotta love that.
Summer is going to get crazy soon. We are having a hard time with scheduling. Everyone, needs to be in different places at once or Red needs to be in 3 places at once. We aren't use to two sports at once with her but now that high school is around the corner she can practice with the high school girls for basketball. Both coaches have been working around each others schedules which is nice.
School is almost out. June 4th. What am I going to do with all of them home. Looking for stuff to keep everyone busy. Maybe, the boys will take swim lessons. They love the water.
Just an off topic piss me off thing. I have been reading this blog, they have gone private. Wanted readers to email or leave a comment if they wanted to keep reading. Leave a little note, that I would like to keep on reading. I guess, I didnt cut it. I am no longer aloud access. So not fair.

softball

We won. Yah! First game and we won 14-4. Red played awsome and did good. She played short stop and catcher tonight. She did have some errors at short stop but thats ok. She is her worst enemy. She is ready for her next game. Good job RED.

Race Truck

Curtis has been working on his second race truck. Just about everything has been free. Given to him by friends or his brother. We only have roughly 200. into. Not bad for a hobby. He has been outside painting it apple red instead of 4 different colors. I just need to learn how to post up pictures of it.
The other race truck is going to actully get a real paint job. We take it to a friends this weekend. No more rattle can. The ford is just where he wants it so it's time to maybe put a real paint job on it. We are hoping it looks like we want. I am going to take some pictures of the trucks and see if I can post them up. Wish me luck.
Races start in June. Then they are over in August. Short hobby time for him. Sometimes, we can come across one in October. It's alot of fun but takes up alot of our family summer time. But as the girls are getting older they are wanting to do more things with their friends and less with us. I guess, thats a good thing with the age difference. The boys still like to do their family time. Yah. Still loved.

The BOYS

The boys?! Well, they keep me on my toes. The school called today, Parker had an upset tummy. I go up to the school and he is passed out on a cot fast asleep. It took me awhile to wake him and get him out to the car. He felt fine when we got home. Just must of been tired from the weekend and Grandpa visting for 2 weeks. Yep, 2 weeks.
Parker and Dalton are not playing any spring sports this year. I really wish they wanted to but they didnt. We go to the park and play for over an hour to get rid of the extra engery that they carry around. Today, Dalton fell and got hurt. You would have thought that some was trying to beat him the way he was crying.
I am really not sure what I am going to do when school is out to keep them busy. hmmm any ideas?

I wipe her tears

Tennis season for the high school is coming to a close. The only sport Brit plays. The coach has been a real butthole. If you are not a friend of his daughter then basically you don't play on V. Last year, they set up tennis leasons with a pro and never told Brit. They told everyone else.
This morning he had changells for #4 doubles on V. Brit and her partner lost. It's the end of her world. None of coaches favorites had to changel. He has made comments in the past about her working during tennis season. Work has never been a problem during tennis season. Her boss works around her tennis schedule.
The coach always talks about his daughter and her friends in the paper. I wish I could complain to the school. I want to so bad. The only problem...............................he is my step-brother. What am I to do? There is so much more to this story but that would take forever and I don't want to stir trouble.
It looks like she will never play again as long as he is coach. He even ruined basketball for her, her freshman year. They fired him from the coaching job but let him still do tennis. Which, he got only because, my step-dad stepped down. Maybe, it needs to be brought to the higher ups at the high school about his favoritisim. I will think about it. For now, I dry her tears today.

Europe

Brit is going to travel for 3 weeks in Europe. I am having a hard time letting her go. She is traveling with 39 other students from Oregon schools. The so called "leader of the pack" is giving me HUGE doubts. In March, they called wanting to know why Brit had not been to any of the meetings. What the hell are they taking about? She was there, I was there, Curtis was there and Papa was there. How do you not know she was not there? The leader herself checked her in. I am to trust this women with my daughter in another country? Then, we get an email wanting to know why she has not done her test. Wait a minute.............those are done. Might, want to double check that one. Then, yet another email today. Her name is not on the list. HELLO! You took my money but now her name shows no payment. Let's just hope this is a computer thing and not the "leader of the pack" trying to loose her. I am having some major issues letting her go with this women. Hopefully, we can get this all straightened out this Sunday at the meeting. Oh Yah, we don't go to those meetings. haha
