Thanksgiving Invitational Baseball Tournament

The Chandler Reds played in a Thanksgiving Invitational baseball tournament Friday and Saturday. After 3 wins and one loss they ended up playing in the final game this afternoon and took second place overall. They played great this tournament and you can tell they are progressing tremendously with every game they play. Hayden pitched one game and did very well! Congratulations Hayden and the Chandler REDS!!

Elle came home today from preschool with the CUTEST turkey hand print on a tile! She was SO proud of it and couldn't even wait for Dad before having me open it. She is so funny!! We hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving!!

Chandler Reds.. First Tournament

Hayden had his first club ball baseball tournament this past weekend! They played two games on Saturday and one on Sunday. They ended up losing 2 and tied 1! They played hard and did great though!! It was a great learning experience for all of them. Great job Hayden!! We have our next tournament this coming weekend. Wish us luck!! Go Chandler Reds!!

Hailee had her first dance competition for this dance season ..Starbound. We have cut back and she only has 5 dance pieces she competes this year!!

CONGRATULATIONS Hailee!

Elle Advertising For Parents Magazine

Our neighbors daughter came across Elle on a huge advertisment for Parents magazine hanging in their Target store in Utah! It was back when she was 9 months old that my amazing neighbor, Tim Pannell, took. I have been on the lookout for it hanging in our local Target stores but haven't seen it yet!! Is she not the cutest thing ever..hee hee?

Fall Ball 2009

It was our last season together with all of the families and kids we have been with and played with since T-ball! In the spring the boys all try out and get drafted on to different teams. It is sort of sad!

We had our first game of the end of the fall season tournament Saturday and we ended up losing! So we are out!! But Hayden pitched an amazing game and he had one awesome hit into the outfield too! It was a great game and the boys played hard!! It was truly another great season!! Congratulations Indians!!

Halloween 2009

We hope everyone had a great and safe Halloween! We went trick or treating in our neighborhood a little bit..then headed to Hayden's friends house that was having a Halloween party/haunted house! It ended up being a lot of fun! Can Halloween be on Saturday night every year?

Elle with her favorite guy at the party..Frankenstein. She wasn't afraid of him at all! I was though...hee hee!

Two little witches brewing up some fun!

Hailee ..a mummy..with her friend Emily who is quite scary looking! Sort of funny though because Mark took the kids and friends to haunted houses a few weeks ago and Emily was too afraid to go in. Guess she is better at the scaring part..hee hee!

Three handsome boys after a long night of trick or treating and running around. The masks were already off at this point but the bags of candy were FULL!

Pumpkin Carving Party

Hayden and Elle got to carve pumpkins again this year at the Redmons! Hailee went with her friends to see the Michael Jackson movie...so she missed out! Nothing better than that smell of pumpkins!! We had some great creations this year..Frankenstein...a bat!! THANKS Di and Greg for a great time!

All the creations...

The boys getting gooey...

Elle and Kealie..

Elle's the one that needed to be wearing those devil horns..hee hee!
