Slide, Slip and Celebrate! Evan's 8!

Wet and Wild was delivered straight to the Pitts backyard on Thursday afternoon! It was a great celebration of Evan turning 8 in a few weeks! Evan said after his party, that he wished he could have this same birthday party - over, and over, and over again!

Look at this huge thing! I knew it looked cool in the pictures, but had no idea just how much fun it was going to be!

 The Birthday boy dining on summer food- hot dogs and chips!

 If you wanna learn how to pose . . just ask Jalee!

 Kyler provided some party entertainment by eating a spoonful of Cinnamon . .  it's in some YouTube video and it was a dare.  Quite entertaining! 

 The Queen arrived!  Actually, Evan's friend, Tripp, said, "look the Queen is here" when Avery arrived - it was so funny because we all know her Momma is Queen B!

The hot tub was a  hit, too!

 Some serious fun was had by all!  Pitts boys played nonstop on it from 2:30 to 7:30! 

 Awh . . Kyler and Payson hugging :)

 Some more entertainment . . .

 Final soak, some tired boys!

 Definitely wet and without a doubt, WILD! Just what a Pitts birthday party should be!  Happy Birthday Evan James!

Are You Ready . . . Ole Miss Football Camp 2014

It's that time of year that Pitts boys become REBELS!

Kerry got to join us this year and get some work done in Memphis, too.

 As always we spent our days and nights in football heaven!

 We had to take this boy and get him fueled up! He had chicken burrito dreams!

 It was hard to catch a glimpse of JP.  He moved into the dorm and we saw him only in passing and during evening games.  I forgot my good camera! I noticed when we hit Ft. Smith and it made me sick!! Anyway, it's hard to capture these Pitts moving targets without my high speed lens!

 When their camp was over, they still played football - hanging out on the sidelines!

 We worked in some swimming, too!

 Kyler is flying!

 Go Evan!

 Jayden doing drills!

 I caught a glimpse!  He had to stop and but his cleats on and I got to see him for sec!

 We spent time in the players room- watching clips and meeting players and getting pumped up by coaches!

 These two are ready for their final day of camp. A good cup of joe at the Ole Miss Inn, before heading to the IPF for the last day.

 All three Pittsboys reunited!  It was a fun camp!  Next year Jayden AND Kyler will be in the overnight camp.  We love our week of being REBELS!

 It is exhausting being a Rebel!

Field Day, Field Trips and Awards!

 End of school activities can keep you hopping!

 Field Day with Evan . .  (watch out next Easter, this kids' got skills!)

 Field Day with Kyler . . 

 Who knew? Kyler can bear crawl like a pro!

 His class came in 2nd overall!  It gets more intense the older they get!

By the time they hit Middle School - straight up warriors!  . . .and parents don't go :(

 Field trip time!  Prairie Grove Battle Field with the 1st grade.

 Then . .  the mother of all field trips . .  Silver Dollar City in Branson.  Hundreds of kiddos and an ALL day trip (7am to 11pm).  Brittney and I had a blast following this gang around!

Back to Academics!  Kyler is our Math Wizard!  2013/14 Math Award!

 Jayden was at football camp during his award ceremony - he said these are "no big deal" - but we are super proud of our middle schooler for his All A's! 

Work hard, Play hard!!

Memorial Day Weekend 2014

We started off our holiday weekend with a graduation ceremony!  Morgan Pitts graduated from High School!  The boys were super proud of their oldest cousin and surprisingly well behaved during the ceremony . .wheh! Actually, we lucked out and they allowed cheering for each graduate - that pretty much saved us! Let's just say the boys excel at "whooping it up"! Take a look at these fine Pitts Kids!

 Next stop, Hot Springs!

 We always love our first trip of the season - we get back to Lake Living and prepare for a summer of many fun weekends!  Poor Jayden started running a high fever the night we got there, and felt pretty crummy for almost a week after! (stinkin' virus that Evan had is the gift that keeps giving!)

 Time to head back to NWA, get ready for some more house showings and spend some time on our other favorite lake! 

 We had a yummy meal and enjoyed some water sports, even though the weather didn't quite cooperate.
