More Painting & Tee Ball

So this past weekend, was more of the same! The boys went and spent the night with my parents on Friday night so that Hank and I could tackle their room. We worked pretty hard on it until 1 am, and were about 98% complete. We got up the next morning and finished it. Then we took a load over to our storage unit, came back and tackled the never-ending attic again! :) Then Hank mowed the lawn while I picked up the back-yard.

Well, that was the work... the fun stuff was much more interesting! The boys are now registered for tee ball and sooooo excited! They will both receive a jersey and a hat, and their team is called the Reds. So we went to Academy and got them some gloves, balls, and little baseball pants (do they have a specific name?). Then Hank rigged a tee in the back yard (using a stake and my vacuum cleaner extentions!) and they swang away!Bryant LOVED it! Look at that look on his face! He missed the first five or so that he swung at, but once he got the hang of it... buddy you better duck and cover! He is primarily right-handed, but we learned that he can hit both left and right. He would have stayed out back ALL DAY doing this! He loved it! He would get up there and say "Batter Up!"Tres, AKA the little boy who hates to sweat, liked tee ball, but preferred it in smaller increments. He would go inside for water breaks or to cool off quite a bit! We set up some makeshift bases for them, so once they hit the ball, they would take off running. Usually it was in the wrong direction or to second base first. It made me smile!He is primarily left-handed and does very well, when he isn't complaining about being too hot!:)

Overall, a great weekend! Although, I must say, all this work around the house is making me so super tired. On Sunday afternoon, I crashed for about 2 hours. Hank is a trooper. Because after the tee ball, he and the boys also washed both cars!
