Birthday Boy

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEVI!

Levi is 3 years old today! We had cake and presents this past Saturday when Grammie came down to visit. Of the things he got he was most excited about the card and the $$. He loves all of the cards he has gotten and insists on carrying them around with him everywhere.
It's going to be a great year!

O, captain, our captain...please defend our goal


(For best effects turn up your speaker volume and pause the music player which is playing on the right hand column of this screen ~ near the bottom)

Eric was the captain of the team for this particular day. It happened to be his third game. I promise you he is doing much better! I have a feeling that this is what I looked like when I played softball in high school. I may not have actually looked like that but I can assure you I remember feeling like that! He certainly is entertaining to watch!! Notice Grammie with David, Levi and Skippy in the background...he was giving them a great show. Thanks for coming Grammie!

So... we did done got us a canoe!


And not just any canoe but one with a super awesome camo paint job! ***can you hear the sarcasm?

Of course we had to try it out right away so we took it down to the swamp that's by our house. "Camo Canoe" blended right in with all of the green stuff floating in the water.

Even the crocodile was amazed at our ability to sneak up on him!

You just never know what you will find in the waters of the Eastern Shore. All in all it was a fun family trek. David was not super excited about it but he lived. I'm looking forward to canoeing in some cleaner and deeper water next time.

First Game!

Ah...the excitement of the first game!

I'm sorry did I say excitement? I meant chaos...pardon me!

Doesn't he look like the "real deal"? You'd never know he didn't even move while he was "playing"

Just kidding. He was only paralyzed for about 5 minutes while he figured out what was going on. After we told him to just chase the ball he did much better! Could those jerseys be any uglier? I am not kidding when I tell you they are the exact color of a highlighter. The ref called it green but he was trying to be nice! Anyway, we beat the other team (Eric's old school) 4-1. Thank goodness for Andrew and Daniel!!

Who's sad?



























Well, the pool came down. I lost the battle of the green when we went away for 5 days so I figured it was time to pack it up. I thought the boys would be sad but I was mistaken. Eric said "wow, thank you so much for taking the pool down, mom. Now we have a whole new place to dig!" Apparently I am the only one who is sad about the pool being gone. Maybe now we can spread out the mountain of dirt!!

Sprinkles

Clearly I need to find a less obvious hiding spot for the SPINKLES!

Shorebirds Baseball

Dad took the "big boys" to a Shorebirds baseball game last night


After the game the kids were allowed to run around the bases. I have no idea who won the game but I heard all about running around the bases and how expensive the food was!
I can hear you thinking "well what did you do with your quiet evening, Tery" to which I will reply...I still had Levi! Actually, Levi and I headed out to Home Depot to buy paint because it was on sale this week and I am buggin' to finally paint the nasty walls in this house. But first I got a phone call so we didn't leave until after 6pm. We were half way to the store when Levi announced he had to "POOP". That child has to poop everytime we are at a store no matter what time of day it is. Sooooooooooo, we spent 20 minutes in the bathroom at Home Depot. By the time we finally got to the paint station the sweet young man there said "Ma'am they will be closing the last register in 2 minutes." And then they turned off the lights. Who knew Home Depot closed at 7:00 on a Sunday. So basically with my quiet-er evening I spent 35 minutes in the car to drive Levi to Home Depot just to do his business and drive home. You're jealous of how much fun I had last night...I know you are!!
