GO DIAMONDBAKCS!

Hayden started his 2nd year of t-ball early spring. We decided to put him into the Hunter/Cyprus league rather than just at the Magna Rec. The Rec was good for his first year of t-ball but thought that it would be better to put him in something a little more "advanced" if you will. Boy, we as parents sure had it easy just being at the Rec center because this year we are running and a gunning all the time. We had raffle tickets to sell and practices and now games two to three times per week. Hayden loves it though and Nate and I enjoy watching Hayden having fun and growing to love such a good sport.

We are kind of sad now that the season has ended. What will we do with all of our time?! I am sure Hayden will keep us busy and m our toes!

This is pretty serious business! As serious aw it can be for a 5 year old!

Hayden was pretty famous boy on his team. Once the parents found out who this Hayden boiy was that their kids came home talking about they would say, "so this is the infomous Hayden we always hear about!". This cute girl Hayley was one of those kids that went home talking about Hayden and funny he was. Oh boy, I think I may have a class clown on my hands! She just loved Hayden. She was such a tiny little thing. They always sat right next to each other while waiting for their turn to bat.

How cute is this?!



Even Sister loved spending time at the baseball park watching Bubba!

When baseball season ended we decided to have a little party at our house for the team. The kids had a great time playing in the bounce house, eating hot dogs, and batting at a baseball pinata.

Hayden & Hayley! Oh so cute!!

Preschool Graduation

Our little Bubba is growing so fast! He has graduated from preschool! It is such a bitter sweet moment in my life. I am super excited for him to be growing and learning but at the same time I am sad that how fast the time is going. Hayden on the other hand, thinks he is already grown and a big boy. He seems to be excited to start "big boy school" (kindergarten) this fall. I keep trying to talk about it often because I have a feeling once it really is time to go to school he is going to have a hard time. And that will make it a double hard time for his mommy.

For the year end graduation they had a program that the teachers and kids worked so long and hard on. Hayden would come home from school and tell me that all they did is sing and dance and sing and dance. He would constantly be singing around the house the songs he was learning so I did get a little sneak peak of what was in store for all of the parents. Although I wasn't sure what to expect on how well Hayden would do up on a stage in front of a bunch of people. But to my surprise he did a great job! Wasn't shy and he played his parts very well! Hayden had several parts, he was a Pirate which he had a solo part in, he danced with a sweet little girl in Disney's Little Mermaid "Kiss the Girl" (my favorite) and another solo as the Huntsman in Snow White.

It was so cute to watch all the kids belt out their parts through the microphone and dance their little hearts out shaking their little booty's!

Hayden and Landen-Best Cousins.....sometimes!

Hayden as the Huntsman in Snow White

This was the Aladdin production and I had to throw in this picture because of the funny faces the kids were making. It's kind of hard to tell but their faces were hilarious.

And my favorite....Hayden with his cute little partner in Kiss the Girl from the Little Mermaid.
Oh it was so cute!

We were so lucky to have Hayden attend Aunt Sand's Preschool for the past two years with his two best buds Landen and Trevor. It has been a great experience for Hayden and he has grown and learned a lot from these wonderful Teachers.

Class of 2011! A note from Teachers! How Sweet!

Good Job Bubba!! We are so proud of you!

Now on to the next stages in life with lots of more growing and learning to do! Watch out big boy school because here comes Hayden Peterson!!

Busy Bryn!

Here is just a little bit of what Brynlee is up while her Mommy and Daddy are at work! She loves her Auntie Debbie!!

She swims....Her Auntie bought Bryn her very own swimming pool for her house. That girl LOVES the water!

Brynlee can cook! Ok, not really but she sure loves to wear her apron like Auntie while she is cooking. She doesn't really help but she helps make a mess by pulling everything out of the drawers and cupboards!

And she simply walks around being the best little Princess ever! She can do no wrong in Auntie's and Uncle Curtis's eyes! She has them wrapped around her little finger!

This photo is Bryn with her favorite blankey that Grandma Deni made for her. She has become quite attached to this beat of hers! (Beat is what Hayden calls his blankets that Grandma Deni made for him, they have always been his favorite!)

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

In honor of Father's Day I thought I would ask Hayden some questions about his Daddy. Now that he is getting bigger he says the funniest things and it would be nice to know what his little mind will come up with to answer these questions. He is such a silly boy that I hope I can get him to concentrate on this little project without saying some crazy things, but then again that will be through the eyes of our our little Bubba! Even though Bryn wasn't able to participate in answering these questions she is still your little Bahooka and I am sure she would give us an ear full if we could only understand her.

So this is for you Babe! We Love You! Happy Father's day!

Thankful!

We have been so fortunate to have special people in our lives that have been able to help take care of Brynlee while her Mommy and Daddy are working. Between my Aunt Debbie and one of my best friends Mom's, Grandma Deni, Brynlee has been well taken care of and well loved during the long days she has to be away from us.

They love this little girl of ours so dang much! We couldn't ask for any better caregivers for our Princess!

Our Concerned Little Bubba

Hayden has been so concerned about Brynlee and all of her jibber jabber because we don't know what she is saying. He came to me the other day and said "Mom, I hope Brynlee is not Spanish or French because we will never know what she is saying to us." It was hard not to laugh because he was genuinely concerned about this but I did have to smile and tell him not to worry that she will speak English just like us. Oh how I love this little guy of mine!! He acts like such a toughy but in all reality he is such a caring soft hearted little boy. He is so much like his Dad!
