It's That Time of Year Again

This has been a tough weekend at the Tussey farm. The family room television is broken and the world just about stopped spinning because of this. Not to mention, Cooper is sick again. It's an allergy thing, but the poor little guy has only been over type b influenza for two weeks now. It's never ending. We live in one of the most beautiful parts of the United States, but also one of the worst places for allergies and we as a family suffer because of it. Unfortunately, my children suffer the worst. I'm really hoping that this will get better as they get older; otherwise, I'm moving to Utah or Arizona.
I have to try and not complain too much about the weather because all of this Spring pllenation leads to some of my most favorite things including freckles of Alexus' nose.
Here's a shot of poor little sick Cooper eating his one millionth popsicle of 2009. Check out the beautiful blooms on my azelia (totally spelled wrong) bushes.
Check out this yard visitor. It's never ending here at the Tussey farm, visitors trespass through our yard uninvited. This turtle was HUGE!!
I'm thinking it looks a little like I felt this weekend. Aggravated at the entire world!
This weekend was also the opening weekend for our little league. Check out the cute little guy with his hat on backwards and the bright red spikes on. Also check out the hot second base coach in the white shirt. Who is that guy?
That's my little guy catching the grounder!!
Listening to the coach give out the rules of the dugout. No punching, no hitting and no dog piling :)
The little league parade. Cooper is in the far left with the giant hand full of bubblegum that he is about to launch at his dad. He informed me that he hit some lady in the eye glasses with gum and he also hit his football coach in the head. Maybe I shouldn't let him throw candy next year.
All in all, this pic sums up the weekend. We all felt like crap.
