Kindergarten Champs!


Basketball season has come to a close. It was a lot of fun. I think every boy improved from the first game to the last. Gavin enjoyed being their coach and I think the boys had fun too!  Landon LOVES basketball, during the season their wasn't a day that went by that he wasn't outside shooting at least a couple baskets. He and his dad worked really hard to improve his game, and I watched it work! He is a super little basketball player, but an even better little boy! Landon, I love you more than you can even imagine.  


What a good bunch of boys! Aren't they all so dang cute!? 


The Undefeated Jazz! 

We had a party at Parker's home after the last game, the boys thought they were pretty cool to be able to go swimming in the hot tub with their basketball shorts on! Notice Bo and Pres, they were the "Asst. Coaches" so they had to swim too! It was a great night. 

YUMMY Coconut Milk! ;o)

It seems like every time we have been to Lin's lately Preston has wanted to buy a coconut. He saw a cartoon on TV where they stuck a straw in the coconut and drank the milk, he thought it would be really tasty.  I finally caved and bought one just so I wouldn't have to hear about how yummy coconut milk was. We waited until his Dad got home to drill a hole in it then we poured a little into a cup, to his surprise it didn't taste the best! He spit it right back out. Then he wanted to save some so Landon could taste it when he got home from school... He didn't like it either. :)  I am glad we won't have to be buying these anymore, they are probably my least favorite fruit! 


Dr. Seuss Day

Preston had Dr. Seuss Day at Preschool. He loved wearing his hat. I think the pink kool-aid mustache helps add to the ensemble! Landon had Dr. Seuss Day at Kindergarten also, but I forgot to take a picture. I know, I have been slacking lately! :)

The Joys of Pet Day!

Last Thursday was an eventful day... it was Bring Your Pet to School Day! Oh the Fun! ;o) 


In the morning we give Nick a bath in the hose outside, well you know we have no lawn so the minute I got him wet he ran and rolled in the dirt, this was the beginning of a long day! We did get him bathed and brushed and ready for school. So, off to school we go with Nick in the back of the Yukon. We arrive at school, I unload 3 kids, 1 stroller and 1 dog! As we are walking up to the school, Nick is peeing on every pole they have.. gross! Then all the kindergartners go and sit down by the playground, all the animals wait outside the fence for their turn. As we are waiting for our turn, some of the animals were kind of nervous sniffing and barking at each other. One dog got loose and ran all over the place! There was a puppy and he was sniffing Nick, I could tell Nick was getting a little nervous, but I didn't think much of it. Next thing you know... he PEE'S all over my foot!!!!! YUCK! I was dying, and I couldn't do anything about the URINE all over my foot and sandal, because I had a baby in a stroller, a preschooler playing on the playground, a Kindergartner waiting for his turn to show off his pet and a dog on a leash!  Needless to say it was dry by the time I had got home to changed my pants, and wash my foot!

 I don't know what to do with the sandals, I don't think they can get wet, I think they might be going in the trash! Oh the JOYS of Pet Day! I think if Preston has to do this next year, I will go buy a Goldfish, put it in a baggie and have that be his pet for Pet Day, then I'll take it to the farm and let it live in the cows troth! Think that plan will work!?

Holes!


There is only ONE thing good about having no yard... a really big sandbox for little boys to play in! I am not sure where they are trying to get to (China, maybe?) but they sure have dug and dug and dug!  

Basketball!

Landon is playing in the Jr NBA basketball league, and loving it! Gavin is the coach and Landon looks forward to each game. On game day, our morning always starts with Landon asking "what time is my game?!" The, "What time is my game?" continues all day until it starts! He loves to play basketball, there is no doubt about it! :) 

Pretty good looking shot, if you ask me! Ya, I know.. I am just the Mother! 

DDD Defense! 

Lovin' the Game!
