Turning 40

Turning 40 is turning out to be quite and adventure. My birthday isn't until tomorrow but i am taking off tomorrow, so Brenda and Stephanie at my office decieded that today would be a great day to help me celebrate... So I get out to the truck this morning and find dead flowers.... then i get to the office and well i am just going to attach the pictures for you to see... Brenda did get me a very nice watch.... I love it... Anyway... See for yourself what they did to me... There is more, but for some reason i can't get the pictures put in the right order, so i left them out... but on the floor when you first walk in the office. it has pieces of paper with Look who is turning the big 40 Dede Smith.. These are on the floor leading to my office with dead rose petals... really funny...

Insane

You know you must be insane when you buy your daughter a new car and the bumper sticker she must have comes from the ASA Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City.. I told her i would replace hers, since the other one is on her old truck. So i go online today and order the 3.95 sticker.. The shipping was 7.95..... so this bumper sticker is costing me 12... i almost could have driven to Oklahoma for it.. Geez.... Talk about spoiled..... I shouldn't have told her i would do that, but its too late now... Well anyway... have a great day..

Rambo's car

Well Randi got a car for graduation. We had been toying with her for about the last several months letting her look at cars, and then telling her no. We finally went and got it the day the girls played in the semifinals in Austin. We drove it down that night and showed it to her. It was really cool. Here are some pictures of her with it...

Well another softball weekend has come and gone... Jessi played this past weekend in Garland with Morgan on Morgan's team Axe. They have asked her to come play with them permanent.... Jessi really liked the girls and the coaches, and she didn't do too bad playing either. Its always my worst fear they will get up there and forget how to play. She played short stop for them and pitched a game.. It was a good experience. If she does go play for them I won't be able to go much. Julie has offered to take her and since Jessi already thinks she is Julies that will be fine... I just hate not to get to go.. it drives me crazy and i am on the phone with someone 24/7 trying to find out how they are doing. Anyway it was fun to watch Morgan. Those two are a trip together... Anyway both girls are playing this weekend in Waco. Jessi will play for Texas Ice and Rambo is playing with the Batbusters... So another busy weekend. Plus we are finally having Randi's graduation party.. Just a tad bit late, but oh well better late than never..

Everyday occurence at my house...

the girls goofing off..

Well as it turns out I took Randi and Megan Chartiers senior pictures...We had a really good time doing it. We went in April and went all over the place. The problem is I wasn't able to do cap and gown pictures that day, because they hadn't gotten them yet. My plans were to go back and take them and well the state softball playoffs got in the way.. (not that i minded) so anyway i now have to DRAG Randi out to take hers... Wish me luck... I am going to add some of the pictures that I didn't put on face book. I didn't want to put them all on there.. So here are a few more.. I have some of Jessi too, she went with us and i took some of her and some of her and Randi.. Jessi is such a ham.. Its fun to take her pictures, except when she gives me this fake smile.. lol..

The team...

Hi its been a while since i have added anything new. Softball has been kind of slow in the Smith household. Randi is continuing to do her workouts, and I have added my workout to hers...lol. Neither girl is thrilled with that i might add.. Oh well.. Randi is picking up with a Bat Buster team out of Fort Worth for the rest of the summer. She went to practice yesterday and seemed to like it. I haven't seen her, but talked with her on the phone...... Jessi is playing with Texas Ice for the summer, not sure what we are going to do in the fall with her. Just have to see. Well not much else is going on the Smith household. Jessi turned 15 yesterday and I think she had a good time at her impromptu party...

Cost.....

Well i think i might be an idiot... Family and friends need not comment on that statement. As the Lady Hornets ended their season and had their banquet, they also had to turn in their equipment and uniforms and such. Well i wanted Randi's black jersey, she wanted her white, so I told them i would buy them. What was i thinking? Not sure since i found out the cost of them today. The white one is $64 and the black one is $48. Not so sure i want them anymore. I wanted to frame the black one to go on our "wall of fame" which i need more space for. I am out of walls. But I am not sure its worth that much money that i don't have anyway....So i guess i will think it over and decide later. I am not sure I want to see Randi's jersey on anyone else though. It was ordered for her and I think I might just have to do it. Yep.... might just have to do it... No one ever said i was sane...
