Busy spring

I think we were trying to set a record on Saturday.We played 5 baseball games, 1 out of town soccer game, county tennis championship and three team pictures!! It was a great day! The boys were very wet after playing outside. After a beautiful morning; it rained all afternoon.

Rowen's team. He is on the front with the green wrist band (from Great Wolf Lodge--refuses to take it off)

Rowen loves T-ball mostly I think he loves being like the big kids!

Peyton on Picture day!

Bailee and her doubles partner Lydia played the most exciting tennis games we have seen all year! They made it to the championship round the score was 6-6 so they had to go into a tie breaker and then barely lost in the tie breaker. It was so sad yet an awesome game. We are so proud of them. Biff and Elly traveled past Indy to a soccer game and had a great time.

Peyton's class had their Spring Program. It was cute. They sang about a "Whopper" the whale. On Tuesday, I picked the kids up from school and a little girl came up to me and said, "Mrs. Williams, Peyton and I are boyfriend and girlfriend and it is serious." Oh lovely is all I could say. But I do know what I will say the next time that happens--can't wait!

Braden's class had a recorder concert and he did a great job! It was fun to hear them squeak and watch them dance!

To catch up:

on May 8th I ran the Indy 500 Mini-500 mini marathon (13.1 miles). It was a lot of fun and I am glad I did it. I just wanted to finish in under 2 hours and I did-- so it was great! We ran on a very cold and windy day and then sat through a super cold soccer game for Bailee in Zionsville.

On April 27- May 3 Rowen and I went to Utah. We flew to Vegas and Karolyn picked us up. We spent the night in St George. We had lunch with Erin on Wednesday and then left Ro with my dad and wnet to BYU for Womens conference. It was great! We had an awesome time. It was a great spritual boost. We also saw a lot of friends from college and high school. Karolyn and my mom got interviewed for BYU TV and then we got a photo shoot for mormon .org. It was hilarious! On the way home Friday night we went to Craigo's in Cedar City for a party for Erin. She competed in the Ironman the next day. It was so fun and super interesting to watch. It is amazing that people can do that. We had a great time cheering Erin on. On Sunday we had brunch and then went to the airport. Ro and I had a great time

Erin had a cute friend that made us all T-shirts for the race day!

Braden Wins!

Braden, Joshua, Harley and Jim.
This year Braden chose to change the design of his car and went with red. They had won last year and now the pressure was on. The races went great and Braden was victorious. All the boys had a great time. Can't wait to do it all agian next year!

Testimony of a 4 year old

Just had to write down a few of the funny things Rowen has said lately. On Sunday, we were in the chapel after church while Bailee was practicing the organ and Ro went up to the microphone and says, "I sorry about all the problems you been havin. I so sorry." Then the second time he says, "Can I get an Amen--AMEN!"



At church yesterday, Ro said to his teacher Hay hay, I gonna marry you. Don't tell my mom!



Then he said Hay Hay you give me kiss. So she kissed him and a girl behind them in primary said that better be your mom or that is sick. Ro said No it my girlfriend!



Today he got out some athletic tape and he said, "I need this for my booby." then I said, "Rowen don't say that." He said, "Mom, I not mean my round thing you know like girls have-- I mean my owie." Too funny.

Easter, Conference and Spring break

This is one for the Books

Bailee's team the Honey Creek Bees ended their basketball season in March. They won the Vigo county Championships and got 2nd in State. Go Bees! It came with a lot of exciting games and even a few nail biters.

They played Otter Creek and won it in the last minute. It is a rivalry that has been going on for years.

Here is the team right after the win.

Bailee getting a post game pep talk from Coach Davis. Coach Davis is great. She reminds me of Emily Williams--my favorite coach ever.

Bailee and Lexi--Now smiling after a hit in the mouth.

Bailee and Jessica.

Bailee and Shelby.

Cutting the net down AGAIN!!

Bailee and Emily (the high scorer!)
Caoch Davis and her daughter Keeley (who dresses up like the bee for all the games).

Then the team went on to Fort wayne to play in the State tournament. The Spiece Fieldhouse is incredible. Here is the store.

Bailee was able to play every minute in the games. It was a lot of fun to watch.

Elly, Bailee, Mary (another girl on the team) and I stayed over night and had a great time. Here is Elly staying by a statue of the World's tallest man. HUGE!

Biff turns 39!

How scary is it that we both turn 39 this year. It wasn't as bad until last week one of my best friends had her birthday and she turned 50. I told Biff, "I can't believe our friends are 50." Funny how it hits you that years are screaming by!! Ahhhhh...

Biff and the kids--we can't get a picture of everyone being normal.

Happy Birthday Biff! And with Biff's birthday comes our anniversary. We have now been married 17 Awesome years!

Spring Break

This year we went to St. Louis to hit the temple. We stayed overnight at the Drury Inn and had a ball. Then we spent the Easter weekend watching General Conference, dying Easter Eggs and having lots of fun together. We went to Turkey run one day and had an awesome hike. That place is so beautiful. On Friday, we went to the Great Wolf Lodge in Ohio. It was a total blast and everyone loved it. I recommend it to anyone for a great time. We hope to go back again this summer. It is right by King's Island so it would be a fun trip. We also hit an outlet mall and then went to Indy on Saturday night. We stayed at the Hyatt. Biff had an event for ISU so we had a great time. Before we left I ironed my dress and then went to iron his shirt which turned pink from my burgundy dress. The only place we could find a shirt that fit was at Norstrom's for $135. You know me-cheapo-was dying so luckily Bailee found one for half the price. Still enough to make you scared :). They steamed it and we were back in business. The funny part is that the reception was so dark that it would not have mattered pink or not! oh well..
We went to church in Zionsville the next morning and had lunch with Page. It was a great weekend! The only bad part--forgot the Camera--oops!! Next time.
