Don't know who "Stampy Cat" is?

Just ask this Stampy Cat fanatic, but make sure you have plenty of time because there is a lot to learn and she is a Stampy Cat expert. She can talk all day long about Stampy Cat and all his friends and his "Lovely World."  This picture is an example of a Stampy Cat hangover. Reesing's favorite shirt is her Stampy Cat shirt pictured here.

Basketball camp buddies

Miles & I both attended the Cole Aldrich basketball camp this week. We got to meet lots of Current & former Jayhawk players, get some autographs, learn some new skills and have some fun. On top of the baseball tournament it's been a very busy week. However, the weekend is upon us and we're all ready for some downtime. It's been a great with with a lot to be thankful for.

Warming up


I also thought it was really important that I get my Grandma Linda a special signed basketball with the KU players. She is always supplying us grandkids with the best KU gear, including KU autographed balls and it was important to me to return the favor. I completed the ball with my signature. Thanks for all you do for us Grandma Linda!

BlueJays take 2nd place

It's been a long, but fun-filled baseball season for Manning & his fellow BlueJays. At the beginning of the season not very many of the kids knew each other, some couldn't make contact with the ball, some could barely throw, but by the end of the season a collective team effort took this team to a 2nd place finish.    Out of 9 teams only the top two finished with medals and we were one of the fortunate teams. We finished off the season with a win on Wednesday night against the Mudcats and then led us into yet another game on the same night against the Angels, who were undefeated all season. We took them to extra innings, but they won the game by 1 run. The boys played their hearts out, the coaches did what they could and it was a great championship game.

I lost KU only to find her hanging with a big circle of older kids, just blending with the rest of them.

Game #2


And Cheerleader KU found a mud pit, got completely wet and then rolled around in the dirt on the ball field, making for a ghostly complexion. She literally looked like a ghost, but her smile was all worth it. She is kinda like pig pen from the Charlie Brown gang. 



Getting the hardware.
