Update.....

Whew, it's been a long time since I posted!
We are all doing fine. The girls are playing on the same TBall team called Owasso Power. Ashleigh is really catching on to the game, fielding the ball well and even "took out the first basemen".... when Troy asked her why she ran her over, she said, "she was being mean to me and my team mates at the last game, so I took her out...." I was at practice with Zach during their game, so when Troy told me what she did and said, it was a little hard not to laugh... it's so against Ashleigh's character. Allie is doing okay for a 4 year old. She has finally figured out where first base is and that is where she is suppose to run when she hits the ball. At the first game, Allie ran across the pitcher's mound, to 2nd base and finally to 1st. I got my entertainment for the week.
Zachary is playing baseball for the 10 and under Owasso Reds. He was suppose to play a game last night, but it was cancelled for rain. He was really disappointed. He has another game scheduled for Friday. He is the starting right fielder. He was a little disappointed cause he wants to play first base, but Troy told him that it's better to be playing in the outfield, then being left out and not get to start the game at all. He seemed to take being a right fielder okay after dad told him that. I think he may be the back up 1st baseman, but I'm not sure, as they are still figuring out who works best where.
As far as me and Troy, we are doing fine. Troy is still enjoying his job and I am still staying at home with Allie. We put a contract on a house that has 5 acres with it, but haven't heard if the owner is going to accept our contract yet. The house is a repo and needs some minor inside cosmetic work, but it's on 5 acres, so we are willing to fix up the house so that we can have the land. The girls are already asking for a horse. We'll have to see about that. There is already a barn, runs, and an area fenced off that they used as a barrel racing and calf roping practice area. There is also a very small pond on the back corner of the property.
That's about it for now.... I'll try to update more often than once a month.
