birthday/fathers day

We celebrated Jim's birthday and fathers day all in one
this year.  I had a co-worker/friend (right Teresa?) pick
this up for Jim as a surprise this year.  I hardly ever get
a chance to surprise Jim.

He was really surprised.

Still unwrapping.....

sorry I forgot to turn the picture.  He looks more
comfortable this way tho right?

Then Zac, CJ and the boys came over and we built a
bonfire in the backyard and roasted hot dogs and had
delicious hot "SMOES"

Gotta love those redneck fires in the back yard.

Cal Ripken Tournament

 Rylee was fortunate enough to play with some friends

on the Cal Ripkien All Star Leage.  They played in a

tournament in Murray.This is Rylee and Gaje.

 

This was the room that all of the boys and thier parents

had to meet in to get briefed on the way the tournament

was going to be played....

 

They gave all the boys souviner bats.

 

Opening Ceremonies.

 

More opening ceremonies.

 

Presenting "JAMES RYLEE WILKERSON"

Yes, this is where all the boys find out that your real name
is JAMES and then mom is in trouble.....What were
we thinking???

 

The rain came down and muddied everything up.  It

really poured hard.  They had to go and get lots and lots

of kitty litter to mix in with the mud holes.  This, in my opinion,

was a very bright idea.... it worked quite well I might add.

 

These kids had a blast in the mud after all the rain. 

Savanah (the little girl) started out in white but ended up

in a nice chocolate brown.....

I am not sure what thier moms thought about this.
