Posts

I've had every intention of doing a lot of posts.... but with a cold and no Internet almost all week that hasn't happened. And now it's Friday night, not going to happen. I told Tim today "i haven't had Internet for 4 days!" He asked "how are you feeling? are you okay?" very facetiously. I informed him that it's been hard and I've developed a nervous tick.... I then proceeded to "tick" for him. He laughed. So that sums up my week, that and I'm worn out from pushing a bazillion pounds of food storage and one small child through Macey's. Tim wouldn't be happy to know how much more I bought cuz he doesn't want to have to move it in the next year when we FINALLY get a house. Oh well right now I think it's better than savings! Besides isn't that what the Elder's  are for?
Mindy Tagged me so I'll have to do that soon, hope I don't forget.

Play Ball

We went to the bzzz game oh forever ago but i haven't posted about it yet. So here we go. It was so much fun!!! the kids loved it and there was more to do than just watch the game. They had a train ride and a park to play it. plus we had food vouchers so we got a LOT of treats and that was super fun. The BEST fries MMMMM good.
Here's the kiddies on the little train ride.
What cute smiles I could just eat them!

What kid doesn't LOVE characters?
oh wait I know a few.... but my kids love 'em especially Porter he wouldn't leave the poor "B" alone!

One of many more pics

Porter eating some peanuts, the boys just loved their bag of nuts to crack open and eat, who knew it could be so much fun. I didn't I just think it's a mess! oh dear there's the no fun mom in me again.

And the BEST part of the night if you ask Mr. T was captured in this next photo.

Tucker kept asking Tim alllllll the time leading up to the game. So dad do you think I'm going to get to catch a ball? UH what are the odds right? And the seats we were in were not ideal for catching a ball. But Tuck kept his mitt on ALL night ready to catch. He was antsy any time we weren't in our seats, he might miss a chance. Anyway he did not catch a ball..... but they were having kid safety that night and at the end they let all the kids run around the bases. So we waited in line FOREVER (it was either that or wait in traffic, a no brainer) So as we walked onto the field for our turn to run Tucker noticed a ball down in the pit area where the players wait. "And said hey dad look there's a ball" just as he said this a ball boy or bat boy or whatever they call them was walking by. He picked up the ball and threw it to Tucker. OH MY could you make a 7 yr old any happier than that? He was smiling from ear to ear!!!!!! He got his beloved ball from the game.

run, run, run
He was so fast I BARELY got this pic.
oh our little shorty, he will catch up someday. I think and hope.
And we got to see the "B" again. We wanted to pass this part up but Tuck NEEDED his ball signed. Bumble.

Dinosaur

RARRRRR
Isn't he scary!!! He is sooo excited about his new costume, not that he knows anything about Halloween. He's just happy to have a new dinosaur/dragon/butterfly costume. He called it a dinosaur butterfly since it had wings, that sure got a laugh out of me!!! They are on sale right now at Navy!!!

Last day of Summer

Okay so I'm such a blog slacker!!! We had such a fun time on the last day of summer I had to go back and post this. Hopefully with more summer belated posts to come!

We decided we HAD to do something out of the norm and fun so we went mini golfng. SO MUCH FUN!!!!! Tim and I finally realized that if we went first we could really play a real game and then let the kids do what they did behind us. It was almost like a date, almost...... besides the few mishaps or adventures that children bring along with them.
Here's a pic of all the kiddies. Tiger Woods they are NOT!!! Although Tuck really does try to play right, it's so fun to watch him.

Here's on of our little Pro. If you click on the pic to enlarge it and zoom in you'll see his tongue sticking out in pure concentration. Just like his mom, and both g'pa's. He also had a ball go in the water, and for once it was NOT becuase he was messing around. If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it. it bounced through a house and out of it and splashed right on it.


Now this is a good story!!! There was a tunnel that you played through and there were also little peep holes into the hollow inside of the tunnel. Well as any good 3-yr old would do Porter threw his golf ball in through one of the holes!!! And then proceeded to cry when he realized it was gone. Well fortunately or unfortunately (depending on the moment and who you ask) Tim picked up Porter and put him right through the hole. He screamed!!!!! Tim told him daddy's got ya go get your ball. Well I ran to the other hole to see if I could capture the moment and it worked!!! YEAH!!! He ran back to daddy soooo fast after getting his ball. Needless to say he was a bit more careful with it after that.

Here is the tunnel with Abbey striking a pose. She was constantly requesting photo shoots!!!
