the story of growing up Scroggins

Since I'm posting anyway...

I might as well include some Fall Baseball & Tball pics.  None of my softball pics came out because most of our games were in the middle of the night.  Hopefully the spring will give us daylight games, and better pics!











This was Grady's second season in Tball, and Tanner's first season in kid-pitch.  We were a little nervous to move up to "real baseball" from machine pitch, but the boys surprised us!  They can actually throw, catch, pitch, and hit balls!  Tanner was a little frustrated with the transition, but hopefully by the spring we can work out the kinks in his "mental checklist."  This last Saturday we played in the playoff bracket, beating the hated Bandits, and coming in second for the championship!  Tshirts and trophies for everyone!  Pretty good for a team of bad news bears that had only won one game in the regular season.  :)

Go Scallywags!!

Happy Halloween 2011!!













Another Halloween in the books!  We had a Greek Goddess, Anakin Skywalker, and Bobafet this year (not sure on the spelling of those last two).  We did the usual dressing at home, of course with photo shoot.  They are getting good at getting into character, don't you think?  Then we trekked to the grandparent's houses for some personal trick or treating before the big annual extravaganza at the Wren's for the REAL trick or treating.  This year we had a spooky snack contest, and there were some great entries!  I wish I could take credit for the bones, but Gran was our saving grace again with the snacks.  I just can't seem to get food into my to do list.  :)  After a round of gathering candy we loaded back in the car for home--quickly considering a trip to Screaming Bridge, but thought we'd wait a few more years for that. 

Trick or Treat!!
