T-BALL!

My nephew has recently started playing t-ball. He played it last year when he was 3 years old and he was a little shy and didn’t really want to be away from his mom. But this year! He is AMAZING! He’s not afraid of anything, he can throw the ball so far, and hits like a champ! He’s the next Babe Ruth :) haha. I love that kid. He always finds a way to make me smile :) His team name is the Dodgers, which Sean insists calling RODGER DODGERS! haha. Here’s a couple pictures from the past couple games.

“Carson make a funny face”  “K”   This is what he came up with :)

Can you see the ball?? Nice hit!

Carsey’s turn! :) Maybe next year.

He saw me taking pictures so he hid behind his glove

Nice throw!

I love my Grandpa!

Super fast

This is what I did for almost the whole game. “HIGHER ASH!!”

I’m super proud of you Seaners! Keep up the good work and Aunt Sashee will be to every game she can!
LOVE YOU BUDDY!

Mikey Wikey Raines?

SO! Interesting thing happened to me earlier today. I took my dog for a walk to the mailbox with me. I opened it and saw a letter addressed to me. Wait what? This doesn’t make sense..I got a letter yesterday. I was confused but hey! I will never turn down a letter from my missionary. I excitedly pulled it out and looked at it. Hmm..this doesn’t look like Mike’s handwriting..but the return address is from Mike..Hmm.. well alright. So I opened it. Okay okay. This is 100% not from Michael Raines. How do I know? Three things.

1. This is NOT his handwriting

2. Mike knows how to spell my name (It’s Ashlee not Ashleey)

3. He would never refer to himself as “Your honey bunches, Mikey Wikey Raines”

So you now see my predicament. Who the heck wrote me a letter, not just any letter, basically a love letter. My first thought went to one of my friends, this would be something that he would do as a joke, and it kind of looked like his handwriting. But it says it’s from Provo. My friend doesn’t live in Provo, so that’s a long way to drive just to send me a letter. My friend is out of the picture. Then my second thought was this is probably a letter from one of his companions. Yep, that’s it! Who else would it be from?! It makes sense though,  Mike’s companions look like jokesters. But I honestly don’t know which companion wrote this. This letter is absolutely HILARIOUS though!! I was busting up laughing while reading it. There is honestly no way I can even begin to summarize this letter. It’s just too funny!!! I will now share this letter with you all to enjoy and laugh :)

I think that this is seriously so funny! I hope that this brought a smile to your day :) Because it surely did to mine! My plan is to write a letter back to him as if I don’t know that this isn’t from Michael. This should be fun :)

Be Positive

I gotta admit. There is NOTHING more nerve racking than the walk from my house to the mail box. NOTHING at all. Well..a week ago today I got my first letter so my assumption was that today would be another letter day. Unfortunately today is not that day. I was extremely disappointed..I walked home carrying a stack of coupons, crying and all that went through my head was “I don’t want these coupons. I just want to throw them in the garbage.” Haha. Kind of funny when I look back on it now… Oh hey… I just realized that yeah sure I didn’t get anything today, but now I’m just looking very VERY forward to tomorrow. I always tell Mike to be positive and to not get discouraged. Why am I not taking my own advice? That’s not cool. I was planning on this post just being about me complaining and venting. So I guess I like this post a lot better.

NEW GOAL: KEEP POSITIVE
