The kids an I FINALLY got a chance to go visit our friends the Eyre's in Austin. It has been almost 8 months since they moved away from Hinckley and we MISS them! Bowling, Wii, orange crush floats...what could be better! I know margaritas and staying up late and chatting with my good friend. They have a lovely new house and I couldn't be happier for Laura because she finally she has a dishwasher!
Cute huh? Those are my fabulous patent leather shoes by the way! But not to worry- he walks around in all of our shoes!! Mine are just the most fashionable!
Sophia is much braver than both of her parents! She touched a snake at our trip to the Audubon Center. Not me! Yuck I hate snakes!
The girls are so excited to get outside and ride bikes! However we miss our friends Ellie and Sam to ride around with! And Mom misses Laura to chat with while we watch the maddness!
It's a good thing that kids are washable. And I've learned finally with number 3- let them get all dirty, then throw them into the bath. Two year olds are attracted to mud- boy or girl, they love it. Since I like to plant things myself, I can hardly deny them of getting dirty. What's the old saying? To keep your mind clean you need to get your hands dirty!
Joey officially turned 5 today. We had to celebrate last night due to our crazy life. But I don't think she cared! You'll notice in the black and white photo-Carson is trying to get at her cake. This photo is shot right before the girls yelled at baby brother because he was sticking his finger in the cake. Typical at our house!
Oh Lord have mercy I am an official "Hockey Mom"! Hockey tournament in Moose Lake this past weekend. Two looooooong days! Good thing I like a good hockey game. And if you think this laid back, soft spoken Mommy is quiet in the stands, then you'd be wrong! Sophia scored two goals- not bad for her rookie year! She is competitive big time! I'm thinking she gets that from Daddy! Too bad Joey inherited my "oblivious" gene! She had fun anyway chasing the puck! My girls were troopers and played their hearts out at every game! I was so proud of them. Hockey is over now- next year Sophia will be on a different team, so there will be even MORE hockey for me!
