April Fun

Sorry for the long delay in posting. While the weekend at race in Bristol did take some recovery time, there's really just no excuse other than being caught up in our everyday mayhem (which isn't really even that bad!!!) Anyhow, here's some pics from earlier in April, including Monster Truck night with Tanner and his friend Jacob, some outside time in the backyard and at the park with our friends Dan, Erinn, Ellie, and Jack, and finally, Tanner's first T-ball practice (very exciting!).

Tanner and Jacob in front of the most famous monster truck, Bigfoot...


The boys sitting high up on the tire of one of the trucks...


Hanging out in front of a "mini monster" decorated like Tow Mater...


It was pretty loud (not as loud as the NASCAR race), but the boys definitely needed their ear plugs...


One of the monsters going airborne...


Enough of the monster trucks, how about that silly girl getting her hair washed. Hilarious!


Like we said, Tanner just started T-ball in April. Here he is practicing off the tee at his first practice. He and his new friends were so excited when he smacked a ball so hard that it stuck in the backstop fence!


Getting a little field work...


Best sister supporter you could ask for...


Tanner and Carsyn swinging in the backyard...


Tanner showing off his monkey skills...


Our little beauty at the top of the slide...


Carsyn decided (despite Daddy's countless warnings) that she was old enough for the rock wall. Here she is getting her start...


Nearing the top...


And FINALLY!!!


Carsyn and her friend Ellie "cozing" up on the couch watching a movie one evening. We're so excited because Carsyn is supposedly moving up to the same room that Ellie is in at the same daycare. Look out teachers!!!


Here are the pics from the day at the park with the Finke family. I must credit Erinn for passing on the pictures to us. She takes some awesome shots. Here's Tanner working hard to get his swing on...


Carsyn swinging on the big kid swing with Daddy...

Daddy giving Carsyn a little surprise at the bottom of the slide...


Tanner got it good coming around the bend...


Finally, Carsyn and Ellie again (Carsyn is about 6 months younger than Ellison). Couldn't get that tongue of hers in for the life of me!
