Junior makes his pitching debut

John struck out his very first batter the first time he ever took the mound in a game. We are proud of him!

Our Billy

Please continue to keep Bill Sebastian, his wife Kelly, his beautiful children Alex, Kassie, Connor, and Colby and all of his friends in your prayers. Our Bill was an incredible man, husband, father, and friend. Mere words cannot begin to define his life. We were so blessed to have him in our lives. He always said all things were possible through Jesus Christ. I know with all my heart he is in heaven , our guardian angel, watching over us and waiting for us to join him one day.

Some of our Handy Work

Did I mention that I recruited two Steelers fans to help me out with this prank?

Are you Ready for some FOOTBALL?

Benny is dressed out and ready for the Steelers game. We spent the evening planning a prank on our friends, Joe and Sandy. They are big Steelers fans so we just had to deck out their house and cars in Jaguar fashion for the game tonight. Benny was ready to rumble!

Pool Tournament

The children challenged their grandmother's to a game of pool. Each grandmother took home a win!

Happy Birthday Nana

We had nana over for dinner for her Birthday. Elizabeth made the cake all by herself, carefully reading the directions on the back of the box.

It is a wrap

Benjamin got into a fight with the bandaids and lost! Actually, he said he was pretending to be a mummy.

Nap Time

Do you think Ben is really sleeping?

Jaguar Fan!

One Happy Jaguar Fan!

Jr was so excited to be going to the game with his dad. He loves sports especially football and baseball. He may have a future career as an analyst!

Progress Reports are in!

We are so proud of all of our children! Brooks has 4 A's and 2 B's ! Elizabeth had all A's! John Had 5 A's and one B ( only one point from an A!) Benjamin is doing just fine too!

Professional cheerleader in the making!

She has not stopped cheering since the game last night!

Brooks' marching band keeps the crowd cheering!

Brooks did fantastic last night at the football game. Their show was great. Unfortunately the pictures from the half time show did not turn out. I will have the camera on a different setting next time. We sure are proud of him!

Plain old worn out!

Can you Spell TROUBLE?

TROUBLE- BENJAMIN AND JEB

Can you find Robin, Kelly, and Sandy in this sea of serious scrapbookers?

There we are!

Off to Pre-School

The boys start their last year of pre-school. They are growing up way too fast.

This photo is a tradition!

Benny holds up a note reminding everyone that Jesus loves them.

Back in Business!

E was so Happy that I came by and ate lunch with her today.

My boys

It is the last day of summer break for these two. We decided to spend it out by the pool.

Jr loves the cubs

Jr wears his authentic cubs baseball cap as he watches them play. His dad said his father use to wear one too during the games. It touched our heart that he did this on his own.

Dynamic Duo

The boys enjoyed time together as their siblings went off to school. Here they are sharing popcorn and a movie.

Off they go!

Aunt Sandy will be taking the children to school each day and bringing them home too. They have a great routine set up for breakfast and homework in her room. It should be a wonderful year!

Jr is still sleepy on his first day of fourth grade!

Note he has socks on too tired to find his shoes!

Ready for the first day of first grade!

The Princess

E had to have a pedicure and a manicure before school started!

Build A Bear

E really enjoyed her Build a Bear reward that she received for having a great report card last school year. We thought we would do it the day before school started so she would have incentive for a repeat performance.

Brooks' Back To School Bash

Brooks had a back to school party with his friends on Saturday. He has a nice group of peers and we were happy to have them over.

The pool Shark

Brooks is really good at pool and thrilled that we were able to get one.

OPHS Marching Band Season Begins!

We were all really impressed with the marching band program at the High School. They blew us away. Brooks is going to be very busy with his music and we are all very proud of him. Come check them out at a football game this season.

Big John was so inspired he tried on the tuba and wants to march in the band. But we all know he marches to his own drum!

E enjoying the performance

Meet your Teacher Day!

E meets her teacher whose name is also Elizabeth! She really likes her and is looking forward to this school year.

E is choosing to buy lunch the first day of school.

The boys are looking forward to going to real school too- but it will be another year for them.

Hanging out in the cubbies.

Jr meets his 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Acosta. We were excited to see that there were only 13 kids in his class and he knew most of them!

Jr find his seat with Ben's help.

Jr met up with his friend Zach. They are in the same classroom again this year and even get to sit right next to each other!

Hank is Home- Prayers are Answered

We had a scare Tuesday night. Hank got out of the fence somehow and was gone for more than 12 hours. Jr was devastated- he cried and cried. I told him all he could do was pray. Daddy searched for more than two hours. Prayers were answered when a good Samaritan called our vet, luckily he had his tag on! After she rescued him from the streets, we went to her house and brought him back home.

Goodbye Summer Vacation
