This is Brendan's...

Day 128

On Friday, the 8th, I went to school to eat lunch with Emma for Mother's Day.  Each student had drawn a portrait of their mother, and the moms had to figure out which one was their child's.  Emma made it easy for me. :)

Day 127

Brendan decided early on that he was not going to cut his hair until his middle school team lost a game.  Since they went undefeated, he was long over due for a cut.

The day after his birthday, JC took him to Great Clips.  Afterward, B let me take a couple of photos.

Our handsome young man...

Day 126

Brendan is 14 years old this year! I don't know how that's possible!

His middle school team played in the championship game on his birthday.  The game stayed tied up for a couple of innings.  I was a nervous wreck!  They ended up winning though.  This team was undefeated...16-0.  I'm so proud of Brendan and all his teammates.

I am sure this is a birthday that B will never forget!

Day 125

For May 5th, I am going to post a throwback of B since his 14th birthday is tomorrow!!!

Day 124

Monday night, Brendan's middle school team played in the semi-finals to determine who goes to the championship game.  It was such a close game, but we won!  These boys are still undefeated.  One more game to go, and it happens to be on Brendan's birthday.

Here is a photo I took in the first game of the tournament this past weekend of B and the umpire.  The same crew of umps called all the games so B quickly became friends.

Day 123

This weekend Brendan's team played up an age group in the toughest division of the Tennessee Super NIT in Kingsport.  The boys played great and went 4-1.  They came in 2nd to a much older team outside of Washington DC.

Very proud of these boys!

Day 122

May 2nd is our anniversary!  We have been married for 17 years.  That seems so hard to believe.

Day 121

Today 17 years ago, we had our rehearsal dinner.  This is what I posted on Instagram today...
