Magical Unicorns T-ball

Sister said she really wanted to play t-ball!  We have several little sisters all around the same age who have been going out to Little League for years to watch their brothers and now it was their turn!  

Whew!  The Magical Unicorns were tough!  They were fierce!  And they won every game!  I think it'll be our last year to play as SK didn't really feel like it was her thing.  

As always, we were the best dressed team.  Pink jerseys, unicorn socks, and awesome custom unicorn hats.  First step: look good.

Here's our girl up to bat!

SK and Adley Kate

Look at that swing!

So cute!

Unicorn themed snacks for after the game: yes, please!

Lucy and SK

The hottest coach around: Neil!  He owned it!

Fun with Daddy!

Daddy is the most fun!  He took the boys fishing in Arkansas with my dad.

They caught this 1 fish.

And Neil and Sarah Kathryn are participating in Adventure Guides with the Y.  It is such a cute Father/Daughter program!

Cheers to 12 years!

Happy Anniversary to the only person I'd want to spend 49 nights in a hotel room with!  Can't believe we've been married 12 years and together 16 years!  We went to our favorite: Franks Pizza and then we had a happy ending at our other favorite: Asia Massage.  

2 of my favorites: Neil and Luxardo cherries

Their flourless chocolate cake is delish!

Foot massage for Neil!

Father/Son Canoe Trip

I love this tradition of fathers and sons going on a canoe trip each year.  The boys love it and they look forward to it all year.  Neil gets to planning his cabins and group months in advance.   He is like the Founder from Shreveport.  The Founder in Ruston organizes the whole thing and Neil just handles the Shreveport crew.

Nana does all of the grocery shopping for all 25 people.  It makes it so easy on these dads!

 From what I understand it's a bunch of smelly boys and dads who may or may not brush their teeth and/or take showers. 

Lots of baseball is played while not on the river!

We were so thankful that Uncle Daniel was able to go on the trip!  The boys loved having him!

Sweet boys!

All of the Fairfield boys!

This looks so fun for these boys!

Bid Daddio turns 38!

I thought I better get back to my blog before a year passes without a post.  So here we are with Neil's 38th birthday!  He is almost 39.  I guess it's been a great year!

We got up and had birthday pancakes and got Henry dressed because his dress rehearsal for his play was today.

Best!

 Neil and a few guys were supposed to take the kids on a father/kid camping trip, but they had to cancel due to rain so we threw a birthday celebration together and thankfully no one was busy and they were all able to come celebrate our favorite guy!

Good looking crew celebrating Neil!

2018 Father/Son Canoe Trip

Neil and Richard took the boys on their 4th canoe trip on the same weekend as the Fairfield Auction AND Sarah Kathryn's birthday!  But, the canoe trip is a "HAVE TO." They have to do this.  It is such a memorable trip with their dad, granddad, brother, and friends.  They still join in with the Ruston crew who has been going for 23 years.  But, Neil has grown this group from just Bennett and him to over 40 people from Shreveport.  Way to go, Neil!

These are some cute boys!

Finally a group pic and Poor Bennett had smashed his finger!  

I BEG for pictures.  I mean BEEEEGGGGGG!  This is what I got and I was happy to get it.
