The Gath Family: September 2009

T-ball has begun!

Last week on Monday we started having t-ball practice, and this weekend we just had our first t-ball game Saturday. Bryson is playing on a team called the Scrappers, and he seems to really like it. Here are some shots and a video from practice this past week.

And, here are a few shots and video from the t-ball game on Saturday.

Finley hanging out at the game :)

Bryson happy after a great game, enjoying a donut that was brought for the team!

One more video from the game...

Booty dance

Bryson has been teaching his sister wild behavior....at least we think it was him. He has this down too!

Cuddles

These 2 kids are so sweet to each other for the most part. One night we heard Bryson asking Finley if she wanted to cuddle, and she curled right up. Just melts our hearts!!

First day of school - Fall 2009

Bryson and Finley both started back up at preschool after being out for the month of August while the school was closed. We had a great summer, but we were so excited to get back to school! Here's a picture of Bryson and Finley the morning of school before rushing out the door. :)

Bryson's 4th Birthday

On September 7th Bryson turned 4, and we celebrated with a party that weekend before. We had some of his little friends join us for a party at a park close to home that has a sand pit with digging toys to dig for big cement dinosaur bones. Bryson chose to have monster trucks as the theme, and he had such a good time! Can't believe our baby is already 4!!

Hotter -N-Hell and Great Wolf Lodge

Back at the end of August (yes, I'm catching up again...) Mike was going up to Witchita falls to ride in the Hotter-N-Hell 100 mile bike ride. He went up Friday with a group of friends and stayed at a host house, and the kids and I drove up by ourselves Friday and stayed in Grapevine at a hotel.

The next morning we woke up and had breakfast, and then headed for a 2 hour drive to Witchita Falls to meet Mike at the bike race. The kids had fun watching the bikes come in through the finish line.

We finally saw Daddy come across the finish line, and couldn't be happier to see him! So glad he finished and had a good time.

After the race we all took the drive back together to Grapevine and headed to Great Wolf Lodge to stay Saturday and Sunday night. We had such a good time, playing at the waterpark, playing in the arcade, watching the nightly shows in the lobby, and enjoying uninterrupted time with each other. Lots of pictures to enjoy! :)
