My little man is officially a cub scout. I don't care if he ever wears a patch, he looks so darn cute in the uniform that I can't stand it. He's looking forward to his first hike and earning some patches. I think he was made for this uniform....
and a black and white
Love it!!!
Let's see if I can get this to work today - yes-Yesterday was Logan's field day at his preschool. There were lots of fun things to do...moon bounce, parachutes, games, snow cones and one of the best face painters I have ever seen. I will let the pictures speak for themselves................................
BEFORE
AFTER
Check out those spidey senses. Fun was had by all!!!
So Logan and I have this ritual and it goes a little something like this:
Logan: "I love you!"
Me: "I love you more."
Logan: "I love you like Speed Racer."
Me: "I love you to the moon and back."
Usually it stops right there and that is the end of it...Mommy wins. Well the other night we went through our ritual as usual. I got to my part where I say, "I love you to the moon and back," and he said,
Logan: "I love you to the moon and front!" He then said,"I got you Mommy!" and proceeded to laugh hysterically. It was priceless......and so is this face.................................
Logan wins!!!
So yesterday I made an impulse purchase. I was at my favorite flower place, Tower Farms and I saw the most beautiful peony plants. They immediately got my attention and I just couldn't walk away without making a purchase. They weren't something I needed or was planning to get, however when I saw them they immediately brought me back to my Grandmother's house. She had a long line of peony plants against one of the fences in her backyard and I used to love to look at them. We would always walk around her yard looking at flowers or her prized tomato plants or even doing yard work together. The peonies were always covered in ants though. However, I learned while at the farm that ants are a necessity for successful peony plants because they eat the sap that surround a peony bud and keep it sealed, therefore freeing them to bloom (who would of thunk it?). Anyway the plants were a total impulse buy only purchased because they reminded me of my very special Grandma who passed away a few years ago. The pictures don't even do it justice but here they are............
Hope you like them Grandma!!!
I am only a few weeks behind wishing all a happy new year..sorry. The little free time I have on the computer lately I have been spending on Facebook. As a result I have been able to reconnect with a lot of people I haven't talked to in many, many years: people I went to high school with, college and all my friends in the "after- life" (meaning after kids). It's amazing how easy it has become to find and communicate with people. My favorite part is the old pictures people have sent back from my elementary and middle school years. It takes me back like it was yesterday.
Let us not forget though in this age of advanced technology, good old fashioned face-to-face time. It is important to actually interact with real people.
I can't end without sharing some pictures. Here are a few faves.........................
You might recognize these from our Christmas card (2008). I need to get these blown up and framed.
Priceless expressions!!!
I have been a little lax in my blogging since before the holiday. You know how it is, all that work and build up before the holiday and then boom......over in a flash. Bob and I got each other a digital video camera for Christmas. I will have to figure out how to get it on my blog. That would be neat, especially for those of you that don't see us that often. I will work on it.
Christmas was awesome. All three kids were completely excited and loved every last minute of it, until it was over of course. Some of the presents Santa gave out were........
a desk for Jeremy
light sabers for all three boys (watch out)
a Cool School computer for Lucas
a drum set and guitar
a tabletop ice hockey table
good old lite brite
Star wars and Kung Fu Panda characters
soccer nets for outside
M&M's in the stockings
etc.
Attached are a few of my favorites from the day
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
They were married on Sunday, October 26, 2008. It was a beautiful day (after many days in a row of torrential down pours). Bob was dashing as the best man. Looking at him that day still makes my heart skip a beat. Logan was the ring barer. We were all so proud of him. He did exactly as he was supposed to, posed for all the pictures they asked of him and danced the night away. In fact all three of the boys danced the night away. At times they were all fighting over who was going to dance with Mommy.
They had a photo booth at the wedding, so cool! It took two sets of strips, one to keep and one to put in an album for Tom & Penni. Very cool!
I wasn't able to get too many shots because I had to entertain all three kids while Daddy performed his duties, but here are some of the best:
He's so patient in letting me shoot til my heart's content.
Lucas exploring the beautiful grounds.
Bob, Jeremy & Logan
The highlight for Jeremy & Logan was the ride in the golf cart during the reception!!! What fun!! Congrats to Tom and Penni, who are at this very minute enjoying their honeymoon!!!
