Its time....

With everything there is a window of opportunity.....I think we missed the boat on this one. A few months ago I don't think he would have really cared if we took his bottle away. Today as I was getting him milk, I turned my back, yes I'm a bad mom I let him sit on the counter, I turned back....and he was trying to put the top on the milk jug......Dad was walking in the door and we cracked up. Yeah I think we may have created a milk junkie!!!!!!!
I love to capture pictures of babies sleeping! They are at their sweetest while resting! Anyways just thought I would throw that in.

Convention and Competitions......

I love watching my kids try new things. We spent the day sat amongst good friends and great music. I had Not a clue how London would do at her 1st all day convention, she did great and she loved every minute of it. Kaden was definitely a minority in the classes, but that didn't stop him from doing his best. He is becoming quite the dancer. They rocked the stage that night at competition!!! Every time they perform I get all choked up and they amaze me every time, they improve sooo much with every performance. I love to watch them grow and come out of their shy little shells. Dancing has truly been soo much fun and has been sooo good for all of my kids. We get to share days like these with such good friends and we are blessed to be surrounded by such good people at our studio. London has gone from crying on stage to now, I almost hate to say, but is not afraid to push her way up to the front just to get noticed.

PAYBACK will be SWEET.......

So, I woke up this morning and went to open the windows to let in the rays and this to my surprise is what we found!!!!

So is this a result of having children, or having good friends who think they are children! :) I love you guys, you help me stay young and you constantly keep me laughing.

I love a good prank, now we just have to pin point the sneaky little boogers. You left good clues... BUT beware, we already have a plan so don't be too quick to turn your lights off!!!!!!!

You got us good....the thread was brilliant!!

P.S......Danielle got it much worse than us, thank goodness for second stop tp missions. We know who you are now and payback is SWEET! Game on!

FUN day of FOOTBALL

One of the joys of having two boys playing football and not playing on the same team is that on the days with double headers, you get to spend all day long on the field. I am not complaining I get pure joy and satisfaction out of spending Saturdays on the football field. The few times I have to miss, I have anxiety and tears. When your child loves something with all of their heart, you begin to have the same love.

Here are the Bucc's after their big win!!! They just beat the Undefeated #1 team! Our boys came out of nowhere, and stomp um! They had a blast, and I think they found a bit of confidence. They were hot and tired and got a quick break before they had to play the Giants under the night lights!!!!

Now the JETS did awesome too.....they were so hyped up and excited they were growling at the other team. Kaden scored a touchdown right off the bat and came running to me saying, "Mom I'm big and bad.....I can totally play football!" Kaden has had such a boost of confidence since he started playing football. It has been a blessing for him and Dylan to be on different teams. They had a huge win that day, and just as the sun was setting we got to move our chairs down the field and watch another game.......

Dylan's team was getting ready to play the Giants, and for some reason were nervous!!! The Giants are the craziest, most organized team in the league, there coach is a bit intimidating, but the Bucc's did a great job and only trailed by one touchdown in the end. It was the best game of the season this far.....they realized that the Giants weren't soo tough after all.....or maybe that they are just as good!!!!!

These boys are such good friends and have such a good time together.

Time for TACKLE!

Long Day!!

How therapeutic to have a garden and be able to go out and pick some veggies that you planted and watched grow. Brad doesn't think that way so much especially after today. Moving dirt and heavy bricks all day is defiantly tiresome, ask Matix.....I thinks he's had enough Daddy.....

It's nothing flashy but it was cheep, and that's what I like. Now lets see if I can actually grow something here?

After a long day of labor Brad still has the smile in him. Thanks babe, we love you and all your hard work!!!!
