problems

I don't know how this thing works. It is quite frusterating. I added a comment on to bubba and that put it below bubba's lets see if this can go on top.

Raven

Raven is feeling much better. She is almost back to butt kicking form. She didn't have to have any fever reducer yesterday. So far today she doesn't have a fever and she is actually a little sassy. Normally I don't like my kids to be sassy, but in this case I have been glad because I take it as meaning that she is feeling better. She actually has an appetite now. She was jumping around a little bit this morning and I felt bad reminding her that she still needs to conserve her energy so that her body can keep fighting the infection. I greatly appreciate the prayers and fasting. I noticed a drastic improvement around noon on the day of the fast and it has all been uphill since then. We are greatful for the support of family. Thank-you so much. Now let's get more blogs on here. Karen is going to put us all to shame! :)

Pictures from tournament

I thought you might enjoy seeing a couple pictures we bought of Brenlon at his baseball tournament.

What a good eye, huh?

I am so techno-challenged!

This is pretty neat! Thought I'd update you on the happenings of the Brett Moore family.

Brenlon has been playing in his Major Boy's All-Star Tournament this week. The tournament is set up as a pool play. There are two pools. They played on Monday and lost. They played Tuesday and won. They played Wednesday and lost. We figured that would put us out of the running for the semi-final game on Saturday. They played yesterday (Thursday) and just had fun. It was a fabulous game. They won by one point in the bottom of the last inning. What a heart-pounder! We found out that we are in a 3-way tie for 2nd place in our pool. Whether we play in the semi-finals on Saturday depends on who wins a game today between LaGrande and Triangle, and how many points are scored (how many points scored against each team is what breaks the tie). We are a long-shot, but it's been a fun tournament.

We are also playing soccer. Landon is loving his first year of playing. I am coaching his team. He plays on the U-7 team, which is 5&6 year olds. They play 3 on 3. Landon does pretty well, but I find that I have to remind him to go get the ball a lot (he loves to watch his shadow run). He scored his first goal last night. Jayden and Kindra are playing on the U-11 team. They are doing well. Kindra is still pretty timid, but seems to enjoy playing. Jayden gets right in the middle of it. He scored 4 goals last night in his game. Treyton and Brenlon play on the U-15 team. Treyton loves soccer. It is definitely his sport. Brenlon has been playing baseball in the afternoons, and then playing soccer at night. He does well at soccer, but prefers baseball. He'll be glad when he's only playing one sport at a time, though.

The boys are getting ready for our County Fair. Our pigs got sick this year, so they are really small. It will take a miracle for Treyton's and Brenlon's to gain enough weight. Jayden's pig was too big when we got him, so he should be just right at Fair time. Our fair is July 31-Aug. 5.

Everything is going well around here. We are really busy, and don't ever seem to be home. I tell people that it keeps us out of trouble! Hope you are all doing well.

test

hey did it work was I able to post somethin on our family? Well I hope all of you use this it could be kinda fun.

Come join me!

I thought that it might be nice to have a blog page where we can post what is going on in our lives. We can also post pictures and keep in touch this way. I have friends who are doing it and love it for keeping up with their family. Now that we all have the internet we have no excuses. The latest edition to our family has been the grass in our back yard. It is so nice not to have a dust or mud pile out there. Jaxon has finally figured out how to go down stairs without falling down them. Raven and Sidnee are loving karate and Mason can't wait to take karate this fall. Steve just started back on the night shift today and I am so glad. He will work 4 days, have 1 day off, work 4 more days and then have 6 days off. I told him that we could use those days to go camping or visit family, or do projects around the house. He just kind of stared at me funny. I think he has ambitions of spending those days on bike trips. We absolutely love where we are and our neighbors are fantastic. Once again I have become the party instigator, but others are quickly catching on. I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of any tomatoes on my plants. We didn't get them planted until mid June, so they will be late. My zucchini is looking wonderful. It has about 8 blooms that are just about ready to open. I am so excited to be able to grill my own zucchini. We didn't put much in our garden because of the late start we got on it. This fall, I am going to add compost and manure and next spring we will start on time. We are wanting to plant a cherry tree for eating. Any suggestions on varieties. We are also going to put in a fruit salad tree. It grows 4 different types of fruit. It will have apricot, peach, nectarine, and I think pear. I'm not sure on the last one. Anyway, climb on board and let's have fun with this blog.
