Today was Caleb's first t-ball game! Caleb came to our bed this morning and said, "today is my game Mommy!" He was so excited to eat breakfast and hurry to put on his orange jersey as he calls it. After that he was thrilled to see a little green car pull up which meant Gramma had arrived.
The game was such fun, and we all had many laughs. Most of these kids had never played an actual game. After our practices I thought our boys were doing good, but I didn't really know what to expect except that it would be funny to see what they did with another team on the field with them. We had kids who would hit the ball and just stand there until the umpire told them to go ahead and run! We had kids who couldn't get to first base because the other team was in the way getting the ball so they ran straight from hitting to second base! We had one little boy on the other team who was carried up for his turn at bat and he didn't want to hit so went back to the dugout!
Caleb is playing right now in the outfield. He told us last night he wanted to play on one of the bases. We gave him a little speech that he was doing a good job in the outfield and if he wasn't there to stop those balls then D would have to go all the way out there to get them. Today he was so proud to get one of the balls and throw it in. He did a good job hitting the ball too. He got a hit both his times at bat. The first one he got out at first, and the next one he got to the base and then got home by another boy.
At the end of the game when the coach was talking to him it made me smile because the first thing out of his mouth was "okay did you all have fun?" That is so important. When we signed up, I didn't know if the coaches or parents would be too serious about the game. Thankfully that hasn't been the case. It's all been very encouraging and fun. I've really liked our coaches, and it has been a great experience for us.
The first game was so much fun. I look forward to more fun games! Go Mad Dawgs!

Recipes: Hobo Packs and Biscuits
Recently in one of my email groups someone passed on this recipe for Hobo Dinners. I remember having them as a kid when my parents cooked them on the big huge grill. I was going to fix them this week, but my Mom told me how long it would take so we saved it for the weekend. We separated the potatoes/carrots in their own pack and let them cook longer. Then after he got the burgers on for a while the grill ran out of propane! We finished cooking them inside, and they were delicious! The taste of the potatoes reminded me of my childhood.
I saw my husband pull out the old cast iron skillet, and I was thinking what in the world are you doing with that!! (We never use it.) He had a recipe for biscuits he wanted to try. On Thursday night one of his classmates had explained the steps to make these biscuits. They are SO good!
Hobo Dinner
1 pound ground meat- divided into 1 /4 pound portions
1 pound package of baby carrots- divided into 4
portions
4 medium baking potatoes, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced and divided into 4 portions
salt and pepper to taste
4 large sheets of aluminum foil
Divide meat into 4 equal portions, and form into
patties. Place in center of aluminum foil sheet, add
divided portions of carrots, potatoes, and onion.
Season as desired. Fold foil, around contents and
place on large cookie tray. Bake at 375 degrees for or
hour or until meat is thoroughly cooked and vegetables
are tender. This dish can also be prepared over a camp
fire or on a grill.
Cast Iron Skillet Garlic Biscuits (I don't know their "real" name.)
Use a cast iron skillet.
Put 6-7 pats of butter in bottom.
Melt butter on stove top.
Sprinkle about 1/8 tsp. garlic powder (NOT garlic salt) and 1/8 tsp. table salt in melted butter.
Layer biscuits (1 can) in skillet.
Put in oven at 350.
Bake 10-15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Our Saturday
We got to sleep late this morning and that is always nice. The boys worked on cleaning up the garage most of the morning. We got JMP a peg board organizer to hang in there so he had to rearrange and remove one of his wall shelves so he would have enough room to hang it. Caleb is his little sidekick in all of his projects. We filled the eggs (which I did find some cheap ones this week at Card & Party Factory). Caleb didn't need much help filling the eggs this year either.
Caleb had an early nap and we took him to the church Easter egg hunt. He said it was at the park where he had his "cupcake party." It was funny to me he had the distinctions in his birthday parties! The kids all played on the playground while the eggs were hidden. We had to walk over a bridge to get to the field. When they shouted GO, Caleb was off! It kinda made me stop and think of how he is getting big and he doesn't need our help anymore for this! I remembered a couple years ago when Daddy had to go with him to find the eggs. Today he was halfway across the field as we were lagging along behind. We stayed for the devotional time and then grabbed Caleb some snacks and headed home to the birthday party for our neighbor friend. It was his fourth birthday. I was thinking how soon it will be that some other little boy will be having a birthday but that is still a few months away for now! They had a pinata. Caleb had never been to a party with a pinata and was full of excitement to get a turn to hit it with the stick.
I had a proud mommy moment at the party too. The kids were all playing with some toys and riding toys through the yard. Some of the boys were going out in the street. One of our rules is for Caleb not to be in the street, and anytime we see kids in the street he makes an announcement about it. He was playing with the little birthday boy on one tricycle type toy that had a seat so they both were on it at the same time. At one point the brother of the birthday boy was pushing them around. He got down the driveway near the street, and I saw Caleb put his feet down and tell him no he would not go in the street. It made me so proud that he made the right choice and knew not to go in the street even with the others around him doing so.
Another moment that was cute was when they passed out the plates of pizza. Caleb had been eating his chips and I told him to eat some of his pizza too. He said he hadn't prayed yet so I told him he could. Then he was looking around saying the others weren't closing their eyes. I told him it was okay, he could go ahead and pray.
We have had a good Saturday. I'm glad we can do these activities together and enjoy them as a family.

How I spent my Saturday
I went outside to a bright sunny morning. I went to a Creative Memories get together at the home of a friend from church. I'd never been to one of these before. The hostess had some delicious treats to serve for a brunch. Then I went to a couple stores by myself. I have not been to Walgreen's for a few weeks. This week their ad had several things they wanted so I was glad to get there before the sale ended.
I came home to a clean bathroom and bedroom. I could tell JMP had been working hard on it. They had worked in the garage too. There was a blockade of chairs across the path to the kitchen. Caleb was blocking the road he said! I helped some with the cleaning and Caleb had a short nap. (I was trying to plan for tonight's time change so he won't go to sleep so late tonight.)
Tonight we went to the local school talent show. They were having a silent auction too. We left about at the half-way point. They were having a live auction also. They announced that the proceeds from one of the baskets was going to a local family whose 12 year old son is in the hospital with burns on 50% of his body. We waited as they auctioned off that basket. It went for over $700, I think the final was $750! It just touched my heart to live in this community who cares for others in a time of need. They were also selling t-shirts where all the proceeds went to the family.
Now it's time for the time change. We better get our clocks changed and get to bed. Hope you're enjoying the weekend.

A nice day to be inside
The weather all week in San Antonio was very enjoyable and felt like spring most of the time. The temperature has dropped this weekend. Plus it is misty and foggy. Those are good combinations to stay put inside.
This morning bright and early we took JMP to the walk-in clinic. We were the first ones in the parking lot at 7:35. The dr. said he believes he has a touch of pneumonia. My Mom met us there as we were leaving, and she went to get the RX for us. JMP has been in bed most of the day. He's still running fever and feels terrible. Thanks for your prayers.
He's been apologizing to me for being sick and said he didn't want to ruin my plans. Poor boy! My aunt was in town for a race, and she called to see if we could meet for lunch. Also, one of my friends was taking a class nearby, and we were going to try to meet this evening. I feel so bad for him because I can tell how terribly he feels today.

Saturday
Caleb is better. Thank you to those of you who prayed for him! Yesterday he spent most of the day in his bed and was totally not his normal happy, busy self. We read a lot of books in bed together. He moved to the couch to eat lunch and then wanted to play blocks for a while. He ran a little fever but it wasn't as high as in the night. By the time Daddy got home he was up. He asked to go to Gatti's. He said he wanted to eat the little meats there. They have little ham cubes on their salad bar that he likes to eat. Today he has been totally normal and active. We're so thankful!
This morning we went to the donut shop as Caleb calls it and then to the library. I've done some laundry and got to hang it outside. It is such a gorgeous, sunny day here; I was excited to be able to hang clothes outside. We are also packing up to go on a trip with JMP this week. We'll be leaving Monday. We're going to San Antonio again. Hopefully we all stay well this trip to SA. (In the summer when we went for vacation I got strep.)
Also today I need to make the Valentine for JMP, finish packing, get the directions we need for the trip, and do the budget for this month.

Christmas fun!
Today has been a full day of Christmas fun for our family! This morning we got up and out of the house by about 8:30. Gramma was here with us too so that added to the fun!
We first went to a community market. One of the vendors works with JMP and I wanted to buy a few of his birdhouse gourds for Christmas gifts.
Our second stop was the library to make a gingerbread house. It was such a wonderful experience for all of us. It made me thankful for the library and the various programs they offer besides books! The room was set up with rows of tables and chairs. Each table had two gingerbread houses. In the middle of the room were tables set up with all kinds of yummy decorations. Each participant was asked to bring a contribution of a specific candy. We brought gummy bears. They had everything you could think of--peppermints, candy canes, marshmallows, red hots, M & M's, graham crackers (which make excellent windows), spice drops, Hershey Kisses, pretzels, Mike & Ike's, coconut, powdered sugar, gummy bears, Teddy Grahams and Goldfish (to sit on top of the roof) to name a few. We filled a plate with a variety of candy and got to work. When we finished, we walked around to look at the other designs. It surprised me to find several Mom's who were doing all the work and not letting their kids have a part! It wasn't that the kids didn't want to help; when they'd try to put something on they were told no! It was odd to me! Oh well! For the most part the families were all participating together. I saw one large family with 4 or 5 kids a wide range of ages, and they were all working together on their house. Here is a picture of our beautiful gingerbread house! This was before it was totally finished. You can see the marshmallow snowman at the front and the Twizzler door. The back side has a graham cracker window.

Next stop was the railroad museum which was having family day. Daddy and Caleb climbed aboard an engine and caboose and also rode on the hand cars. Daddy's arms were quite tired after that! We also all got to go for a ride on an old fire engine.
This evening we went to a Christmas parade. We are from a small town so it was a short thing. It was fun though. In the years we've lived here we've never been to it so it was good to be here and be able to go for a change.
JMP and Caleb planned to put our lights on the house. JMP put the clips on the roof while Caleb was napping this afternoon and started stringing the lights. When Caleb got up they went out to do the others and we have two strands of lights that are mostly out! Several times last year the wind was so strong it blew them off the house so we guess they broke then. It's weird that I don't remember them being broken because I probably would have looked for them on sale after Christmas last year.
Tomorrow we have a party/lunch after church with the kids' group so the fun will continue!

A new month!
I am excited that it is December. I love this time of year! We looked at the calendar last night with Caleb and showed him several upcoming activities.
Today has been a great day together. Caleb and I went to a birthday party this morning for one of his church friends. They are so cute together and like to give each other hugs. Daddy did some Christmas shopping while we were at the party (and said he had some success but wouldn't give ANY hints!!). We met at a garage sale before having lunch and going to get our Christmas tree. We had a $10 off card at Lowe's for a $25 purchase. Well the tree wasn't $25 so we bought a bush too. We got both the tree and the bush for $18---a good deal I thought! I was glad I'd kept that discount card. The boys brought home the tree and I did a little shopping. I bought myself some pants and a couple of skirts.
Tonight we decorated the tree. Caleb has been so excited for this. We have an old popcorn can with strands of lights. One of the strands of those with big bulbs was laying on the floor so I put it in the can. Then Caleb pulled them back out and a couple of the bulbs busted. He felt so bad and kept apologizing. It was really sweet how we could tell he felt bad that he busted it. He kept saying, "I'm sorry Daddy. I didn't mean to break them." He helped me put out my Precious Moments Nativity scene. When we put up stockings, he said he wanted some candy in there. He was looking at them and then told us which one was each of ours by looking at the names.
I got out a musical figurine that Peepaw gave me in 1989 to set on the bar with some other decorations. I get it out each year, but actually the past couple of years it has been left out year round. I couldn't put it up after Christmas 2005 after Peepaw passed away. It made me cry when I turned it and it played the song in full. I remember one year it didn't work; another year when I turned it to play it didn't work, but later it started playing. It was special to hear the whole song.
We had a fun evening. Here is a picture of the finished tree!

Saturday museum trip
Last night I told Caleb he needed to go to bed so he'd be ready for our activity we were going to do with the church friends this morning. He wanted to play football at bedtime after he had seen some of the game from the back porch last night when we got home from eating.
This morning I had to wake him up. Usually he wakes up around 7:30. Today I had to wake him up so we would be on time! We met a group from church and went to a children's museum. Caleb was so excited when I told him. He was just sure there would be a digger and crane there because there was one at the museum we went to on vacation earlier this summer. Well, they didn't have a digger, but he had plenty of fun anyway. He was completely fascinated with the huge model train set up. We stayed a couple of hours, and he was tired out by the time we left.

Saturday outings
I "had" to do some laundry today and try out my new clothesline. It was a perfect day for it too! Caleb helped too. He got upset about his John Deere tractor pillowcase on the line though. I think he was afraid it was going to blow away. It was really windy so maybe on other days with less wind he won't be worried about his clothes blowing away. He's seen clothes drying outside at Gramma's house, but I don't think they were blowing as much as they were today.
Earlier this week I told JMP I'd like to go to LifeWay and the library by myself. This afternoon I got to go. I also made a stop at Dollar General. This evening we had pizza for supper and stopped at Dollar Tree. (I like dollar stores if you didn't notice!)
JMP saw a lizard peeking out of the eave at us when we came back tonight. Thankfully Caleb did not see it. He has had two dreams hollering out in the past few months about lizards, and I can just imagine how nervous he'd be if there was one near our house. I hope we can get rid of them soon. JMP thinks he knows how they're getting in the attic. I can handle spiders or bugs crawling across the floor, but I know I would NOT do well with a lizard in the house. Yuck!

Saturdays at home with my boys
I always look forward to Saturdays I can spend with my boys. Today started off rainy. We had breakfast at McDonalds, and then we stopped at the community market and several garage sales. I found a few things. One I was excited about was a set of 20 cards and envelopes for a quarter. I can never pass up stationary!
This afternoon I made cookies for the VBS refreshments. Both boys were trying to get some samples as I was cooking. I did make a few extras too!
Our VBS starts tomorrow evening. Caleb is excited about it and keeps asking everyday if it's the day for VBS.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
