Fun Times

Wednesday night after work...

This week we headed out on a little adventure.  We went to Hershey for the circus.  We had a really great time.  Daddy packed us a cooler of goodies...then came and picked up mommy after work and we headed up.  The boys did great and really behaved quite well.  We left at intermission...which was just about perfect.  He got home around 10...and everybody was snoring shortly thereafter...including me.

Thursday morning....we headed to Target...

Yes, I let Sawyer loose in the toy aisle!  HA!  The forecast was for hot, humid, in the 90's...so we headed out to get soda, socks, and freezer pops.  (A little rhyme there)  I told the boys we could stop in the tool aisle if they listened.  They did.  We headed home and got out the pool and sprinkler.   (Sorry, no pictures to share, the boys went au natural!)

Show off Sunday

We're nearing the end of Sunday School...so the boys had what I call Show Off Sunday. 

They started by singing some of the songs they learned.  Each Sunday they start off in a large group singing Bible songs.  They did a great job!

Next up Jackson's group recited the Golden Rule.  Note:  Do you see how tall Jackson is?  He towers over the others. 

He also did a great job.  We could hear him loud and clear...and he had an enormous smile on his face. :)

Connor's group was next.  They recited two Bible verses and the Lord's prayer.  Nice job, buddy.

Family Fun Fair

Friday night (May 21) we spent the evening at Connor's school for the Family Fun Fair.  Let me tell you, it was so fun!  The boys were super eager to go and loved every moment.  Jackson did not disappoint.  From the moment we got there, he wanted to ride the rides and play the games.  So fun.

We stood in line for the Money Grab...Connor waited with us...then bailed, he was scared..and told me Jackson would be scared too...Oh, contrare.  Jackson was ALL ABOUT IT!

One problem, he grabbed a lot of stuff...then dropped it all. 

Oh well, they gave us a free bowling ticket anyway.

Not to be outdone...Sawyer joined in too.

Check out those eyes :)

This was a favorite for all the boys.    The Play-tona speedway.  We thought we lost Sawyer for a few moments.   Connor came out in a matter of moments...

Jackson  followed seconds later...

Sawyer...well...Sawyer took his own sweet time.  I was actually concerned...and tried to peak inside to check on him...TAH DAH!

Next up, The Bounce House.  The boys waited in line for about thirty minutes to get on this.   All for 2 and a half minutes of bouncing bliss.

the boys did not stop smiling!

We closed the place down.  It was such a great evening.  We chatted with friends and walked around...

This was Sawyer poking his head into the bounce house...he tested the waters a few times before joining in full throttle!

Love the tongue hanging out...the true sign of a good time!

YEAH!

Soccer Picture 2010

Take two...too bad the shadows killed us

So, I mentioned in another post about Jackson's soccer time crush.  See the little girl in the pink here.  Cute, right.  Well, Jackson certainly thought so.  One night at soccer Jackson followed her the entire time.  She didn't seem to mind at all. As a matter of  fact, she seemed to welcome it.  I was trying to watch Connor play soccer and watch Jackson and Sawyer play.  Well, at one point, Jackson pulled my arm until I would come and meet "this gerl".  Her name is Maggie and she told me her mom was Amanda.  (It took me two weeks, but I eventually figured out who she was.)  Jackson was smitten.  He followed her around like a puppy dog.  He was so sad when we had to leave.  Oh, my dear...your first crush?

Here are a few more i-phone pics.  While connor was a school last week, the boys and I spent the morning outside.  It was a bit chilly, but we had a great time and enjoyed a snack under the tree before heading inside.  The boys loved their little lawn chairs.  Just their size.
