Team Mom

Wow, that is about all I can say..... WOW.... Yesterday we went and bought the socks for the team so that we could make sure they all had the same color, now I have to send out emails to let them know about ordering additional shirts if they want, and I just found out we have to do that, then another team mom tells me they are picking up their hats and taking them another place to have their names embroidered on them... so of course i have to have our teams done or else they will be the only ones out there with no names.... Good grief... today i am going to sit down and figure out who still needs to get me their forms and I have two players that didn't make it to practice so I have to figure out how to get them all their info because they only have until March 4th to order additional shirts and March 15 to sell their tickets and cups... Not to mention I have to have all forms ready to turn in on the same date including all the money... Luckily I have a lot of friends who are team moms as well so we have surely been leaning on eachother!

It's Fundraiser time

Last night I was up til 2 in the morning making lemon squares and pecan squares for the Men's ACTS Team fundraiser at church today, those are for the silent auction, I also made yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting and german chocolate cupcakes for the bake sale...

I am so ready to eat some of their yummy BBQ! Those boys can cook!

We are in fundraising season right now... this one is done today, but Noah is also doing a Math-a-thon to raise money for St. Judes hospital, and Tball has us selling BBQ tickets and cups... people are going to start running when they see us coming!

He gets a basketball goal for Christmas... And this is how they play.... Gotta love them!

60 more days

It has been a crazy busy week and it has just flown by, today was actually Noah's first day back at school, my poor baby stepped on a nail and we kept him home to make sure he didn't stay on his foot too much, he is doing much better but the good news was he did not need a tetanus shot because he had one in his last booster and it was still good, even Noah told the doctor 'Thank God'. My baby had his 6 year check up this week and he is doing great. When we got to school this morning and I got to see all my little cuties, Mrs. Reininger and I were looking at the calendar and she told me '60 more days of school'. It hit me like a rock, only 60 more days of Kindergarten, makes my eyes fill with tears.... the year has gone by so quickly and I am so very thankful that I have been able to spend so much more time with my son at school, well everywhere honestly and all the memories we have made, milestones we have accomplished... I am such a proud Momma. I can't believe that 60 more days is all we have to go...
I paid for his little graduation cap and gown today, and we'll be taking pictures in the next couple of weeks... time flys... enjoying every second...

Busy again....

Things have been pretty busy here on the Sauceda front, Noah just finished up basketball and is already starting T-ball this week. Johnny is helping coach and I am the Team Mom... I have my meeting tonight so we'll see how much stress that adds to my life. The boys team name is the Sand Gnats, and no, I'm not joking... don't ask me where they come up with these names but hey... Go Sand Gnats!!!! I crack up just saying it.
I have been really stressed lately, I think the events of our bad January still linger and I just need to pray to let worries go but I am a natural worrier so that isn't easy. Our little house has been having to put ourselves on a tight budget because our little nest egg got cracked but it wasn't our fault which makes the whole 'poof' gone thing even worse. I surely thank God for placing this job in my path and allowing me to build back up and try to heal our wounds...
Let me tell you, I have had a whole new lesson in trusting in God. But my boys are good, everything else works itself out and God is in control anyway right?
Johnny's birthday is next month and I am loving this little bit of spring, little bit of winter weather...

Just another adventure

Okay, my husband doesnt look too impressed but really, he was happy LOL!

We took our little munchkin to eat at the Rain Forest Cafe on the Riverwalk, it was a beautiful afternoon, we didn't get to walk around much because he stepped on a nail that morning so his foot was hurting, but he still wanted to go do something so we went to get the best burgers (yes we love their burgers) ever!

Isn't this a gorgeous view, and even better when you don't have the summer heat to make you miserable....

Really? It's only Wednesday?

This feels like such a long week, I really thought it was Thursday all day long... bummer! I had to work the afternoon at work today so my evening is going to fly by, especially because I have to clean, and do some housework.... but I am super excited because after Noah's practice tomorrow I am going to scrapbook with some of my favorite girlfriends and I am sure there will be plenty of adult beverages consumed! Viva la Viernes!

Doesn't he just have love written all over his face!

Happy Valentines Day!

Trying to look pretty on a Friday night

Practice makes perfect

Well, My baby is loving his basketball season, I am so very proud of him because he has done an outstanding job. Noah just has it, don't get me wrong, I am not saying my baby is a pro but he is good, and that ain't just his mama talking. We don't force it on him, he's a natural and it is so amazing to watch him... His coach this year is great and the kids absolutely love him. Here is my baby running drills with his coach....

What a year....

This year has gotten off to a ROUGH start, woo wee was I glad to kiss January goodbye, so long, hasta la vista... GOOD RIDDENCE! Yup, it was THAT bad... but I'm trying to shake it off and get ready for a great February, my baby turns 6 years old tomorrow.... I can't believe it! That is how I know for certain it will be a great month. He is totally excited because there is no school tomorrow and we are suppose to have snow tonight! Everyone stay warm!

No cavities

A great visit to Dr. Al the absolute most awesome dentist ever!
