Pirate's run amuck!!!! AAARG!

This is Sami's Softball team.........The Utah Lady Pirates!!!!  On the way home from Disneyland we stopped in Mesquite for a tournament for Sami's team.  This is her teams first Tourny and I think they did great.  The Placed 4th (out of 5 teams) 
Sami is learning how to slap hit, and this is the first time she got on base.  I'm very proud of her.

This is Sami sliding into 3rd base.........SAFE!!!
Sami sliding into 2nd!!!!  SAFE.   (its so cute to see her team slide)

New Port Beach

Kenzie working the camera.  We love the beach almost as much as Disneyland.
My sister Shannon and her kids Shelby, Ashley, and Dusty meet us there.
Kenzie loves her dad.... cute!!
These are the rocks where Lexi and Kenzie found Starfish..
Rob and Sami.  I love the butt pictures..  ;)  I have a tons more pics I'll post later.

DISNEYLAND!!

Space Mountain! We waited in this line for about 35 minutes and then the ride broke down!!! We got out of line and went later when the line was shorter.   35 Minutes of my life I will never get back!!
Peter Pan ride.  This was the only ride in "Fantasy Land" we waited for.
Tradition states "All Gray girls must try to pull the sword out of the stone."
Sami is finally tall enough to do the car all by herself.....But she isn't strong enough to push the gas peddle for the whole ride.
This is in line while waiting for Splash Mountain!!!  Fun!
The only picture we have with all of us....  What a fun trip! We went to Disneyland 6 days.  We did all the big rides several times.

I'm going to Disneyland!!

Disneyland

Ok here we go again... We just can't get enough of "The Happiest Place on Earth."  I know we went as a family last Thanksgiving and maybe we should try somewhere else.....but we miss Disneyland,  the smells (wafflecones) the sounds (train conductor yelling "All Aboard") The rides,

the lines, the footlong corndogs, the early mornings, the late nights, the rides, the lines....

Mackenzie told me she loves waiting in the lines.  We always play guessing games, or a hand slapping game.  Our rule is everyone MUST ride Every ride at least once!!!!  Lexi hates the Tower of Terror.  But she remembers the rule.

Well.... we leave in 3 days and I have a big List of things that need to be done, so I better get busy.

I'll post lots of pictures when we get back

Rules:

1- List the person who tagged you.

2- Mention the rules on blog.

3- Tell about 6 Quirks of yours.

4- Tag 6 fellow bloggers.

Ok, first I have had a hard time thinking of 6... I'm sure you all could list them with no problem though.... here I go!

1- When I am thinking I chew on my lip or cheek.  (Rob likes to tease me about that)

2- I wiggle my foot... all the time!!! When I'm nervous, when I watch TV, When I'm going to sleep.... 

3- I'm a planner.. I need to schedule my day, my week, my month..  I write down all the girls practices, games, school concerts and church stuff!!!  Once a week the family reviews the schedule.   I know a little crazy.  But its the only way I can function.

4-I LOVE MY DIET PEPSI!!!   Brenda mentioned that she has one before noon... I have at least one before the girls carpool is here..... 7:30 am.    I know I should stop, but i don't want too..haha

5- I'm addicted to my email and my cell phone.  I never leave home with out my phone.

6- When I leave to take my girls to games, (while still in the van) I run through a list of things that they need.... Do you have your water? cleats, visor, mitt, bat, socks, shoes to wear after games, etc....  Once rob took Sami to a game and didn't go through the list...  She was sad because she forgot her Mitt...   

Ok I don't know how Quirky these are but Oh Well.....

I don't know any bloggers who haven't been tagged already...

maybe Joanne?  

Toilet Papered...

Last night while we were sleeping. Vandal came to our home and "TOILET PAPERED" us!  So around midnight Rob walks down stairs, then comes up to bed and asked me to identify the paper vandals.   Then both of us walked down and watch out the window..... 2 boys about Kenzie's age running around our yard with several rolls of toilet paper!!!!!  There parents were in a white car with parking lights on across the street. These boys were pretty good..  There were rolls thrown over the house, High in the trees, wrapped around bushes, wads stuffed in the tires, I'm glad they used 2 ply.  Some of the high trees string we were able to pull down.  Kenzie had to climb on the roof to get some. What a way to start our week..  I wish I had taken pictures last night, of the boys.
