Ben's tournament season begins!


Ben's tennis tournament season has begun. His first tournament was in Bremerton, so dealing with the ferry was atrocious. Ashton did enjoy being able to walk around the ferry and go from seat to seat. He made sure we were all moving together. We did have one late night on Friday in Bremerton because Ben's tennis match was running 1 1/2 hours behind schedule. We didn't get home until 1am. Thankfully he was able to stay in Bremerton Saturday night so he didn't have to deal with the ferry that night. He was excited to get home Sunday for his cousins 16th birthday, but had to go back to Bremerton Sunday night. He won the consolation round for the tournament! We are all so proud of him!


My nephew Jacob! Good looking guy. Can you believe he is about 6'4". Wow! One inch taller than Mark. Jacob just turned 16 today!! Happy Birthday Jacob!









Hannah's favorite thing this week is making jewelry. She has been making a lot and looking forward to wearing some in her Hawaii vacation coming up. She is very creative and good at it!





And here comes our upcoming tennis star! Mark had an opening on court, so Ashton was able to get in a little half hour hitting time with daddy. They both seemed to love their time together. Ashton sure has come a long way from our indoor balloon tennis games. Before we left the house, Ashton kept asking where his bag was. I didn't understand until he said "Ben has bag, Hannah has bag; where is Ashton's bag?" Of course it was in Ashton language, but I had to take his preschool bag and turn it into a tennis bag for that day.

I just can't tell what he loves more. Soccer, baseball or Tennis?
