More T-Ball
Yep, that's Dawson leaving 3rd base!! And he hauls butt just as hard and fast as he can straight past home and then slides!! Hilarious!! He's my Babe Ruth!! Lately he has been working really hard on his batting and he's getting better and better every single day!!I've said it before and I'll say it again, Daityn Blair is his biggest fan!! I think she loves him more and more every single day!! And the feeling is mutual for D too!!She was all worked up and hot from watching Dawson,
Amanda had to assist her in a little drink of water!!
k, so maybe there's another person (besides myself of course)
that could be considered Dawson's biggest fan...
Daityn Blair and Amanda are running a pretty close race!! I don't know what I'd do without that girl!! I love you bunches Amanda!!Thanks for everything you do!!

This is probably going to be a pissy blog, cause right now I'm on the phone with a freakin' collection agency and I'm IRATE!!!!!! And being on hold only makes me madder, so I'm blogging to try and get rid of some of this anger!
I got a letter in the mail today from a collection agency... The first one that I've ever received so immediately I look it over to see what's going on... I see that it's from Cingular.... Which we haven't had an account with (in our name) in almost 10 years... I called them and asked them what was going on they couldn't tell me anything but we owed this bill... So later when David came home, again I called and let David hear what they were telling me... Okay, hope your ready for this bunch of bull!!! This bill is from April 2001 and they say that they've been sending us bills for the past 7 years.... But the funny thing is that she went on to tell us how the account was changed over to another name in 1999!!!!! So there's no way possible that WE owe this outstanding balance!! But then she still wanted us to make a payment by phone.... This chick has got to be outta her freakin' mind!! Right??
It's just been a funky weekend.... We had Bunko on Saturday, and of course I forgot my camera.... blah, and I could have gotten some really funny pictures!
In the middle of bunko I got a call from my mom and she was freaking out... Which makes me immediately freak out, cause she's not the freaking out type... My baby sister has been thrown from a horse and they were heading to the hospital with her because she started throwing up... I didn't go up there to the hospital, although I wanted to and didn't want to all at the same time because I was really scared of what I was going to see... She told me that she fell off and hit her head and she thought her arm was broke...
So anyway, they did x-ray's and CAT scans and all kinds of other tests and found out that nothing was broke but she did in fact have a concussion. But they cleaned her up and let her go home.. My poor Punky... She is a tough little rascal... I don't know if I could have handled it the way that she was... It was hard enough the day after...Here is her right arm up close.And her left arm.
The next day David, the kids and I went up to check on her and take her her favorite dessert rice krispy treats with homemade buttercream icing on top... I finally talked her into letting me give her a bath and cleaning her up good... Made a trip to Monticello to get some spray on antibiotic ointment. When you see the pictures you'll understand... I didn't get pictures of her back, it's all scratched up and cut up... Bless her little bones!!And after all of this, she says that she is going to ride again! She has been working really hard at getting her other horse (not the one that threw her off) ready to run barrels.. Makes me nervous!! After we visited and pampered Punky the kiddos rode in her go cart!! Dawson was such a big boy riding sister around! He had one hand on the wheel and the other around her neck!! We're definitely gonna have to have a talk with Santa about one of these for next year!!;)
On a better note, t-ball season is here!! And right here is the next Babe Ruth!!And Babe's biggest fan!! With my clicker making the alarm on my car go off every chance she gets!! Blogging always makes me feel better!! I forgot all about being mad
until I scrolled back to the top!!

More everyday stuff!!
Well, my daddy left on Friday... We were all sad... But thanks to the good Lord for our answered prayers, he didn't have to go alone! John offered to ride with him and drive back!! Thanks, John!! Here is Daddy getting ready to pull out!!Dawson was sad, but of course he was side tracked playing with uncle Bo for the longest time... But as soon as he got into trouble on the way home, he played the ole' "I miss my PawPaw" card!! BOLOGNA!!!! I don't know what I'm gonna do with that boy... And you know how crazy Dawson is about Daityn Blair.... He is all about baby sister.... He didn't want his daddy to go to New York, but he wanted me to send Daityn Blair.... He had even checked in her bag to see what I had packed... He came in and told PawPaw "yep, my momma's got her diapers and extra clothes, she's going!!" And he was proud!!! Poor Daityn!!
The next day we went up to my mom's where Shane and David boiled crawfish! YUMMY!! I think we all made ourselves sick!! They were so good, even Dawson tried them and fell in love! Here is Gramp and Daityn Blair hanging out!!
We've definitely gotta ask Santa about a trampoline for Christmas... Those kids had a blast!!!
I've got another video of how Daityn Blair was lovin' being bounced around by Dawson!! He is so rough with her!! But it seems like the rougher he is the better she likes it! And we were laughing because of all the static in her poor hair!! It was stick up like a mad woman!!
Now this picture is priceless!! My 5 year old baby boy let me rock him to sleep!!! He
voluntarily crawled up in my lap with a blanket and asked me to rock him!! Had to get a
picture of that cause it may never happen again!!Here is one of my new favorite pictures of Daityn Blair!!
Just a snap shot taken at the park in front of the train!! Love it!!T-ball games start this week so I'll have lots of new pictures I'm sure!!

Daityn Blair Bowling
We really aren't cruel people... I promise!! But this was just too funny
not to share!! We are calling this "Daityn Blair Bowling"!!
She loved this almost as much as Dawson!! You can hear her chuckling
every time the ball comes to her!! And then see her sit back
down and get ready for the ball to come to her! She is so funny!!

A Perfect Weekend!!
We've been so used to being cooped up in the house lately because of all the rain, we almost didn't know how to act waking up to sunshine.... But this weekend was BEAUTIFUL!! We just had to get out in it!! Our yard has really been suffering from all of the flooding, but finally it was dry enough for us to get out and clean it up a little!! So we made it a family affair!! We all had a great time! David and Daityn Blair mowed while Dawson and I cleaned out flower beds! Dawson told me that he wanted to do this everyday!!He is still a very hard working little boy!David came across the yard and I could hear him laughing over the lawnmower in that high pitched laugh... I looked and saw that Daityn Blair had finally given it up on his hands.... Is that not the sweetest thing ever!After the clean up was done, we went out and enjoyed the rest of the evening with the kiddos on the swing! I think the slide is their favorite thing ever! There's Dawson looking up at Granny!Daityn Blair loves to walk up the slide like a big girl! She watches Dawson every move he makes and she thinks that she can do any and everything that he does!Dawson setting the example!Look at that sweet little face!!There's Granny helping her climb then slide, climb then slide... Granny is probably down in her back today!!This was also the weekend of prom here! Patrick has said for as long as I can remember that he didn't want to go to prom! But at the last minute he changed his mind and he went looking so handsome!! Here he is with his beautiful date Sydney! They were just getting out of the car at Mamaw Sue's! They were lookin' hot!! I LOVED her dress! And last but not least! This weekend I had my first order for a birthday cake! It was for Paislee's first birthday and here is the masterpiece! And not only was it purty darn cute, it was YUMmy!And here her very own smash cake which she seemed to really enjoy!I thought they turned out pretty good! So if you are having a special event coming up, let me make your cake! I will make you happy in taste and cost!!!
I think that pretty much let's you know what's been going on here in the past few days! More to come probably on t-ball!!
