Home Again

A few photos from our last evening in Colorado:

Grandpa worked his magic on Brayden, and got him to fall asleep on him.

One very proud papa:

It's hard to see from this angle, but they're BOTH asleep here...Joe has no idea I took this (well, I guess he does now!!)

It was rainy when we arrived home, and our little airplane got tossed all over the place by the winds. For those of you who know what a bad flyer I am, you can imagine how much of an effort it took for me to not let my 4-year old see how badly his mommy was panicking. I honestly have no idea how I held my composure together. As soon as we got the kids home and safely tucked into bed, I burst into tears...just finally letting go of all that tension.

Everything is finally beginning to bloom here. I am always surprised at how happy seeing all the greenery makes me feel.

Aidan had his first t-ball game on Sunday. Here he is having some fun in the dugout:

Blog Intro

I've never blogged before...this is something totally new to me. However, in speaking with my mom on the phone recently (she lives far away), she commented about how she doesn't get photos and updates quickly enough, and that the boys seem to be growing faster than she can believe is possible.

About me: I'm a homeschooling mom of 2 boys, and our home also includes three cats and a dog. Once we had our second baby in two years, my husband laughed about how chaotic life had become and decided he was naming our home "Bedlam."

So, what to expect? Read the name of my blog and take a guess!

Onward!

Today Aidan had his first-ever t-ball practice. It was hard to get good photos because we were looking straight into the sun. This image was one I found to be particularly fun, though. Here is Aidan (standing) at third base with one of his friends (on the ground) looking particularly enthusiastic:

And here is Colin graciously sharing his favorite gal's candy with her:

Won't that be a good one to share at their wedding in 25 years?
