Long Post

Have I told you guys lately that we have the NICEST friends? A couple years ago some of our AZ friends surprised Scott with an XBOX. Now the William's showed up with a surprise for us too. Lance was on business in Minnesota and he walked into a store and won a contest and won $$ to spend in the store. He got their family a bunch of cool stuff and thought of us and GOT. US. KINECT. It's obviously a much longer story, but you get the idea.
         I just took this from Robyn's blog...

 " Last week Lance went to Minnesota for work and stopped by the Mall of America on his way home. He came upon a competition in the Microsoft Store where you could challenge an employee to a phone app "quick draw" so he got in line and HE WON (if you were wondering why he posted "Hi" on Facebook, that was the winning moment)! He ended out with an R2D2 Xbox Kinnect system for the fam. He could hardly wait to surprise the boys the next morning before school."


Our family was sooooo surprised! What can I say, we are blessed but the most thoughtful and generous friends.

I just wish Scott would let the kids play.


We are all addicted. So if you don't see anymore outside pictures, you'll know why.

Thankful!!!
 My little Scotty started off his baseball career. He did great at his first game of his first season.

My little catcher. He didn't actually catch one, but whatever.
It was FREEEEEZING but these faithful fans braved the weather to cheer him on. 

I got this picture text from Robyn who was at home with the little boys. THANK YOU!
He's up to bat. 

Telling Scott all about it!
Next up, Sissy's actual dance recital. 
They said no pictures, but how could I resist. Ooops. 
 Here are the faithful (bored) friends.

We rewarded these sweethearts and ourselves with CHEVY'S. We always loved it in Phoenix.
 The part we loved best..... TWO KIDS EAT FREE. Can you imagine how much they loved us. 6 adults and 6 kids. If Sammer looks loud to you in this picture, you're right.
After all the naughties went to bed, these two old seminary buddies stayed up underlining and highlighting in their Bibles. Robyn and I ran to Walgreens to buy People Magazine so that we could lay on the couch and discuss. (I'm just trying to keep the blog honest)
 
Poor macker woke up with a tummy bug so the William's took off early to escape our germ house. We already miss them. Come back soon!
