Earlier this week, Camden received his recorder and I have heard nothing but sweet melodies morning and afternoon since he received it. LOL. While I am getting ready in the morning, I am serenaded by a song he is learning, with honks and squeaks intertwined. He has been looking forward to receiving his recorder ever since the first week of school when he found out in music class that they would be playing them.
Casen came home from practice with an awesome surprise. If you recall, they won second in a tournament a few weeks ago and received a medal, while the first place team received rings. Unbeknownst to us, our boys were to receive rings as well. As you can tell, he was very proud.
On Friday night we headed out to the Farm League to watch Casen play some flag football. This is the championship weekend, but unfortunately due to Casen also having a baseball tournament, he was only able to play two games on Friday night. They won one and lost one, but as usual, it was so fun to watch him play. His team ultimately ended up losing on Saturday as they were short several players and were unable to pull out a 'W'.

On Saturday morning, my parents, Camden and I headed out to the south side of Houston to watch Camden play his soccer game. It was a fun game to watch and Camden scored a goal off of a penalty kick, which was really awesome!
We left there and headed to the baseball fields to catch Casen play his first two games of the Fall Classic tournament. They ended up losing the first one 18-17 in a really tight game, and then won the second one 13-8.
After we left there, we headed to our favorite Mexican restaurant and had some yummy food, then came home, opened presents and had birthday cake to celebrate Shane's 45th birthday.
This morning, we got to get up and do it all over again. This time however, Camden's game was closer to home and Casen's baseball games were further away from home at Baseball USA. Casen ended up playing 3 games since they lost their first game, won their second game and then lost their last game. Honestly, can I tell you I was glad then ended up losing their last game because it was over around 7:00pm and had they won, they would have played at least one if not two more games. That would have been a really late night for seven year olds (not to mention their parents).
So, in case you lost count, we had 2 flag football games, 2 soccer games, 5 baseball games and a birthday celebration. It was a great, busy, birthday weekend but we enjoyed all the family time we had. Now, to go to work tomorrow and to try and get some rest!
