Does it get any Cuter?!

Little League

Preston's Coach Pitch/T-Ball Little League Season came to a close. Watching him play was pure joy! He loves to play especially when he hits Home Runs! He has a great swing and is really growing a passion for the game. It seems the last month whenever you see him around the house he has his mitt on with a tennis ball in it. When he asks his dad to play catch, I grin. It looks like we are going to have two baseball players in the Frei Family, and that couldn't make me happier.

Mother's Day

This is one of my favorite days of the year. My kids tryed hard not to fight, Gavin cooked and cleaned it up. I was able to rest and read cute cards from my kids and a really nice on from Gavin. I opened presents, like mini spatula's, tooth pick shakers, pictures framed in craft foam, and homemade book marks. I listened to my boys sing in church and then received hand prints that I will cherish forever.  I was able to visit with the Mom's in my life as well as Grandma's.

 Could a day get any better? I don't think so.

A Warm Day!

We haven't had many warm days this Spring. It has been really weird weather.  We have been waiting everyday since Easter to try on our new suits. Finally on the 4th of May it was warm enough to head to the water walk and Preston didn't have Kindergarten. It was a perfect afternoon. Thanks Bradi for calling! This was way better than doing the laundry.

Field Day


Field Day is always a school day we look forward to at our house. Both boys did great! I don't know where they got their hops from, but both won 1st place in the Broad Jump! Way to go boys. 

Sliderzz at the Jazz Game



These are a lucky bunch of boys! The Sliderzz and their dads were able to go to the Jazz playoff game on April 23rd. How fun would it be to hang out with your some of your friends at a Jazz Game? I have to say I was a little jealous. Maybe next time the moms will have to take them! :)  The next morning they got up and played a couple of scrimmage games in SLC and then headed home. Sounds like a fun weekend to me!

I have to say I had fun too. I went to Natalie's and we ordered take out and made bows. We decided the next craft night will have to be minus the extra 6 kids we were entertaining in between the glueing. We still had a great night, just didn't get many bows made!

Did you notice Landon's eye? He got pegged with a ball at practice a couple of days earlier. He kind of looked like an Avatar there for a little while. Didn't seemed to bother him, I think he kind of liked the attention.

It Is Official..

It is Official... I am OLD. 
On April 22 I turned 30. 
Ever since then things have been falling apart. Let me just name a few: 
1. I have age spots on my hands. 
2. With this pregnancy I have gained A LOT more weight and I am only 5 months along. 
3. I have gray hair, there are wrinkles around my eyes and the list goes on... 

But, with turning 30 came some good things too.
I better start from the beginning.

 Gavin sent me flowers that morning, I love flowers so that was fun! Then I called him to go to lunch with me, but he had a lot to do for work, so I ate lunch by myself at home. (I kind of had a pity party about it.) Then at 5:00 we went to dinner just the two of us. Preston had a baseball game at 7:00, Mom came over to watch the kids and we headed to Texas Roadhouse. It was raining and Preston's game ended up being canceled. Gavin had told me that we were going to just have our parents come over and have cake after the game, because it would be to late for a real party. After the game was canceled Gavin said,  "Dang we should have called all the family now that there isn't going to be a game."

But he never called anyone. (I again kind of had a pity party, in my mind.) After dinner he said, "Hey lets go shopping since we don't have to hurry home."
Sweet! I thought. Then he drove to Walmart and we bought a mat for the car. Nice. After that we stopped at Big 5 and Rebel Sports and bought GAVIN some new shoes. (Okay my idea of shopping was a lot different. I wanted some new clothes, maybe?! Nope, Gavin got shoes.)

As we were driving home he told me he got a text from his dad that said he had left my present at his house and wanted to know if we would stop and get it. As we pulled up to the house, Gavin motioned for me to get out and go get it. I LOST it!

 I said "Let me think about this day for just a second. First I ate lunch alone, then we went shopping and bought YOU new shoes and a floor mat.  Your mom completely forgot my birthday for the second year in a row and now you want ME to get out and go GET my OWN present!"
I then jumped out of the car, slammed the door and ran up to Dennis front door. I flung it open only to hear,
"SURPRISE!"

All of our family was there with a big sign to wish me Happy Birthday! Oh man did I feel dumb! I had a big pity party for no reason. 

All in all it turned out to be a fun day. The surprise was great and I was happy to  spend my birthday with my family and friends. They are really all that matter anyway.
