T-Ball, Take Two

Last weekend we got to watch Piper in all her cuteness while she played in her first T-ball game. She was seriously awesome! While Piper doesn't fully play like an all star yet, her delivery of the plays was something to remember. As she was running to home plate she had the confidence of a seasoned player. Not only did she arrive safely to home, but she stopped and stood there with both hands on her hip to take it all in. Cutest thing ever! 
    
 Here is is coming in for her super-man like pose...
Oh, and while I was having a fun little family session after Piper's game, I got my official Texan citizenship. I didn't realize I was lacking in that department. Apparently you aren't really a Texan until you've shot an AK-47. One more thing crossed on my bucket list I suppose. I was terrified and will probably never, ever, do it again. LOL

Dowdy Adoption

Meet the Dowdy's, they are dear friends of ours. Today we are holding a baked goods auction in their honor to help raise money for the upcoming adoption of baby #2. Come on over to FB and click on the Dowdy Family baked goods auction photo album, you will find over 30 delicious treats being auctioned off for this cause.  To bid, simply comment on the photo of the treat you'd like with the price you are willing to pay.  If you are not local to the Bonham, Texas area but would still like to help contribute to this wonderful cause, head over to their adoption website. You will find a paypal link there allowing you to make a donation. We really want this to be a success, please share this with all your friends and family as these special friends of ours open the next chapter in their lives. If you have a soft spot in your heart for adoption this would be a really great opportunity to pay it forward. Anja and Keith are a couple of the most devoted parents I know, and any donation, be it big or small, would bring them closer to growing their forever family.  Thank you so much for anything you can do to help our friends, we are touched by the outpouring of love we have already seen from the community in their honor.
