Baseball Party Wrap Up

Sorry for the blurry pictures I had to show you how much Todd helped me decorate, okay well he let me use all his Texas Rangers things like his World Series cups and his towels... he did place all the baseball players around. :)

 Ian has been waiting for this day for a whole year, he was the one that started our singing of Happy Birthday.  The boys also picked up a new trick, recently at friend's birthday parties another kid spoils it for the birthday child and blows out the candles.  As we were finishing singing Hobs blew out his candles and then Ian quickly followed.  That solved the problem!

Since it is difficult to find good presents in town several friends pitched in to help us buy the boys their very own scooter.

Hobs was serious and our little friend was looking cute posing for a picture.

The kids love baseball but being able to share the experience of a game with their close friends was priceless.

Baseball Party Weekend Celebrations part 1

 We started off the fun filled weekend with Skyping my mom and grandpa.  We like our family to watch the kids open the presents from them.

The boys love little cars and they plenty of them! 

What a perfect time for them to get their very own Josh Hamilton baseball figure!

Getting Ready for the Baseball Party

We are preparing for our double birthday party this Saturday.  If you haven't guessed it we are having a Texas Rangers baseball party.  I have been busy trying to make this party very special for my little guys.  One of my favorite things so far is their baseball cards.  Both boys have at least 4 different poses and everyone will get both of their cards along with some other fun things in their treat bags.  On the back says, "thanks for coming to my party!" 

 Being crazy as we were on our way to baseball practice

Everyone is getting a water bottle with their name on it for the water break during the game.

For the party everyone is going to meet us at the school near our house so we can play a game on the field where we practice.  We'll then go back to the house for consession stand food and presents.

Baseball Practice

We've been doing baseball practice a couple of times a week.  We know the coach at the elementary school near our house so they let us use their field.  We start out with stretching and then work on hitting, catching, and running the bases.
