Maelea had her birthday party today but was quick to let me know "it's not my REAL birthday, yet." She had a great time at her party and she gets to take snacks to school on her REAL birthday!

Have to brag on Jackson for a minute. He had a great game tonight. He got 2 doubles, and a triple tonight. Also, got awarded first base after being hit with a pitch . . . but not bragging about that part!

We played a new game today. . .
Hide-and-Seek on the 4-wheelers!
Maelea and I hid first. She had on a bright white shirt. . . so I pulled my big t-shirt over her to camouflage us better. Then it was our turn to count. . .
Summer and Maggie definitely did the best job of hiding. Maelea and I had to make two trips to find them on their last turn of hiding!

I had to take Gerald over to his dad's shop the other day and as I was backing up I noticed these old trucks by the edge of the shop. I had to stop and get a pic. When I showed it to Gerald he told me that he remembered his Grandpa Haynes winning this truck and giving it to him when he was little. He won it at a drawing at Otasco or somewhere like that. 
This was just one of his old Tonka trucks.
I love how pics can bring back memories of the ones we love and of good times.

Well, that didn't turn out quite like I meant for it to!It's a little bit SMALL!!
If you get your binoculars out, you can see that it is Jackson pitching during baseball practice. He is excited about baseball this year, and we should have a pretty good team. However, I hope we lose at least one game because his coach (aka MY husband!) has promised the kids if they go undefeated this season, he will shave his head.
Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not against the bald look at all. It looks great on some guys. Just not sure how it will look on Gerald. And then I think, "What if it doesn't grow back?" or "What if it only grows back in patches??" He'll look like he's got the mange with only a few patches of hair on his head! I told him he needed to THINK about what he said before he spoke! And that he needed to go ahead and invest in Bullfrog Sunscreen Company! We'll jack the price of that stock way up if he's got to keep that white head covered up so it doesn't burn. We are heading to the lake for 10 days in June. . . and I bet a sunburned BALD head would hurt very badly! He tans so easily and has already started getting darker just from baseball practice. Now just picture this, it's the end of the season and his arms/face/neck are all tanned. . . and a glowing-white head. . .
Oh. . . I gotta quit. I'm getting stressed.

Yes, I took this pic. And yes, I did see the spider before I took the pic.I am a strange person. . . I know, "SURPRISE! SURPRISE!" to those of you who know me well. . . but I go through spells where I am fascinated by spiders and can actually look at them without freaking out. I guess I'm in one of those times right now. At least until I see one unexpectedly and it freaks me out all over. Then I'm sure I'll be having the "grand-daddy long legs" dreams all over again! haha!

Sam cooked supper for us last night. When I got to their house, this is how Maggie looked. Maelea had fixed her hair.
Then Maelea got some more ponytail holders and I went to work on her hair! This is kind of what I looked like in the 80's! Not really, I never did the multi-ponytail look. But I have it POOFY on one side and stuck to my head on the other. . . and I did have the off-centered ponytail on the side of my head. . . and I had some MAJOR wings. . . Oh, I miss the 80's hairdos! Aquanet . . .88cents a can.

Maggie & Maelea hunting Easter eggs at Gma Polly's house.
Maelea wore Gma Polly's jacket because it was cool outside.

We were sitting at camp when all of the sudden this blimp passed over.
You'd have thought we'd never seen a blimp before the way we piled in the car and started following it to get a good pic!
There was a bass tournament at the lake today, so I guess they wanted to advertise this cotton product. I thought it was kind of crazy because I bet most of the farmers are in the fields - not fishing! It was cool to watch it though.
