1. She is such a good cook.
I apologize for being such a bad blogger lately. I have been busy, but I know that is no excuse! Jill Noorda is busy and she still has time to make homemade bread and salsa! 
Kalin and Cruz were actually excited to start. I had a hard time sending Kalin to his first day of high school. He wouldn't even let me take him. I am NOT old enough to have a high school student!!!! Okay, I guess I am, but I don't feel old enough.
They are both playing football now. Kalin actually got some Varsity time in his game on Friday night. He is the JV Quarterback. Cruz is playing running back. I just hope we make it through the season with no broken bones.
Over the 24th of July weekend we had the Lopez Reunion at the ranch. We had a great time and were very happy to have the Lopez's in our neck of the woods! We had a pinata for the kids and even one for the adults this year.
Kalin thought it was more fun to wear the pinata! That's my boy!
Jayce was the undisputed "King of the Trampoline" on the pond!
Kalin also earned the nick name "assassin." He took second place in the Texas Hold 'em Tournament out of 32 people. His dad was the only one that could beat him!
Cruz just competed in the Pacific Regionals in Panguitch. His team got spoiled rotten. They got new uinforms, new helmets, and new bat bags. They were definately the best looking team there! 
This was the first game they played against Oakland California. They were by far the best team in the tournament. It was a big eye opener for us to see 9 year olds playing this good!
This is Cruz laying down a bunt against Long Beach. We won that game 20 - 16. Cruz pitched the last two innings and shut them down for the win!
This is the team after the win. They were so excited you would have thought they won the World Series!
We went hiking in Bryce Canyon while we were there. It was beautiful! Too bad Kalin had to miss out. (he was home puking) We missed you K and are glad you are better!
