Thanksgiving 2009

Thanksgiving was great this year the only thing missing to make it complete was Bianca. That is the hardest thing about her being away at college is all the holidays that I have to miss with her. It is very hard to get use to that kind of thing.

It's our 2nd Thanksgiving spent away from each other and yet it doesn't seem to get any easier. One thing I am thankful for is that she has made friends at school and they invited her to spend thanksgiving with them in their homes and that makes me happy to know that she won't be spending it alone.

This was the 3rd annual turkey that I have made on my own & I have to say it came out DELICIOUS! I am so proud of myself starting my own Thanksgiving tradition so that my children can come home year after year once they have left the nests. I really have a lot to be thankful for my husband, my children, my family & friends
I LOVE you all & thank you for being a part of my life.

Well our travel baseball fall season has come to an end. We finished 1st in our league with a great record 19-1 we only had one loss the whole season. There was some fierce competition out there but the Sandlot always remained on top! I created a website for our Sandlot team it is www.sandlots.shutterfly.com you can go on there to see photos, videos & read about all the accomplishments we've had this season.

Petco Howl-O-Ween Costume Contest

Bianca took Louie & Lena to a costume contest @ PETCO the other day. There were tons of media there covering the event as well as the grand opening of the store. She must of caught the eye of the reporter when he interviewed her because he put her picture on the front page of the article. Click on the link below to see the article & picture.
She told me that she had a great time at the event. Louie & Lena were dressed up as a ladybug & bug catcher..LOL

It's Been A While....

I know it has been a while since I posted last. I am sorry for that it's just that I have had a lot going on in my life. You know how it goes too busy for yourself. I redid my blog look to go with the holiday theme...Halloween I am going to update it from now on at least once a month. I guess this post will be kind of long as I am going to try & catch you up on what's been going in my hectic but wonderful life these past few months.

Where to start??? ok I left off at Jr's travel ball 4th of July tournament. So I guess I will start off with him. As most of you know jr joined a travel ball team over the summer. They have been playing very well together. Right now they are 8-1 & in 1st place in the league. This weekend we are going to be in a tournament in Stuart. The boys are really excited about going. I know we can bring home the trophy this weekend we've done it before & we can do it again. Jr started 2nd grade and is doing wonderful. He has a great teacher & he loves going to school. Oh did I mention he's toothless..LOL Yes he lost his two front teeth and then he lost his bottom so he has NO teeth in front. I just took him to the dentist today in hopes that he could tell me when his teeth would be growing back, the dr looked at me & said maybe for christmas...LOL

Anissa & Ivanna have been doing well in school & they are still cheering they are on Cheer Florida All-stars and practice very hard several times a week. They are planning on going to lots of competitions this cheer season. Ivy got a job she works @ Pasqualis a pizzaria as a cashier. She has been very busy with work, school, on-line classes and applying to colleges she wants to be a lawyer and we know she will make a great one since she is always arguing everything...

Nisi is learning to drive seeing as she will be turning 16 in March...oh my god where has the time gone? They are growing up so fast.

Bianca is still in Colorado...I missed her very much last month it was the 1st time she didn't come home from school. She usually comes home every quarter for a week or so but I just couldn't afford to bring her this time and that was very sad. I wanted to spend my bday with her we've never missed a bday together. I am very proud of her though she is working at a state of the art veterinary hospital in Denver, Co and she is going to school FULL time. She has been doing great! I can't wait for her to graduate and pursue her dream of becoming a wildlife vet. You can follow her blog and see what she's been up to at www.biancafeliu.blogspot.com

Me I have been just moping around the house working from time to time. Just haven't been in the mood to do much. Well that's not 100% true I have been scrapbooking away when I can..I've been working on all of jr's sports albums finished Tae Kwon Do, Basketball & almost done well not done but caught up on baseball.

I will keep you updated monthly at least and I will try & post pictures on my site.
Have a great week

GO SANDLOT!

Jr had his 1st travel ball tournament this weekend and it was AWESOME!!!! Jr made a travel team called the Sandlots there were quite a few kids trying out and he made the final roster.

The team had only practiced together twice before playing at the tournament so you can imagine how nervous we were when the coach announced that we were playing in the Triple Crown State Championship Tournament...

He had a great time. We played against 2 other teams there was 2 from Miami & 1 from West Palm Beach, we were undefeated the entire weekend going into the championship game with confidence. The boys played the game like they had been playing together forever. It was such a wonderful feeling seeing Richie so happy to be a part of the team.

Here are some pictures from the tournament.
GO Sandlot!!!!
