5 Rivers

Best buds for life!

Myles
Connor

Yesterday while Kevin's parents were visiting from Virginia, we took them to a little Wildlife Museum on the Bay. It's called 5 Rivers because it's at a point where 5 rivers come together in Mobile Bay. The boys had a great time looking at the delta and seeing some wildlife!

Myles at 5 Rivers

Here is Myles at the 5 Rivers Museum. I didn't get as many pictures of him as I did Connor. He doesn't like me taking so many pictures of him!

Please don't get me

Mr. Alligator

I wish I was at Yellowstone!
I didn't want to get too close!

Connor at 5 Rivers

Here are the pictures of Connor from our visit to the 5 Rivers Museum. He had so much fun because he loves all animals!

Krispy Kreme

Here are the boys at Krispy Kreme this morning. They thought it was so neat to see the donuts being made. They kept calling it a factory! They ate lots of sugar & drank chocolate milk before their games!

Connor's game

Connor's team managed to pull out a 1-0 win this morning. While Connor did not make any goals, he was close several times. And, just like last week, all of my action pictures of him shows off his nice tongue sticking out!

Faster, faster

Another great day today. And, what beautiful weather we had too! Myles played one quarter defense & one quarter mid-fielder. He loves playing mid-field! He's really good at defense, but he really loves to play mid-fielder. Here are some of the pics from today.

Show & Tell

Connor had show & tell this morning at school. All week I've been asking him what he wanted to take & all he would say was Star Wars men. So this morning I told him that today was the day & for him to get his men. Well he then decided that he would take his snake! He kept hissing like a snake so there's no telling what he did in front of his classmates!

Wii R Stoked!

Finally after months of looking we finally found the boys BIG Christmas present, a Wii. I found it at Toys R Us today at 1:15 p.m. I've been telling everyone that I'm sure the employees at Toys R Us are thrilled that I found one because I've been calling for days & going over there on my 15 minute morning and afternoon breaks (having my office next door has been quite handy!) The hard part now will be not playing it! I told Kevin that maybe we could play with each other after the boys go to bed, but he didn't fall for that!

He shoots and he scores....3 Goals!

What a game today for the Rockets. The boys came out ready to play. I saw boys because only 4 of the kids showed up today and they were all boys! That meant Connor had to play the entire game and he really came out of his shell! And, he scored 3 goals today. We were so excited for him! For some reason a few of my pictures were blurry, but I posted them anyway since one was my favorite. After Connor scored his first goal, he ran across the field like the pros do!!! It was really cute. Also, after looking at our pictures, we've noticed how his tongue comes out when he's really concentrating and playing hard!

I'm all ready Mommy

On my way to another goal!

High fives from everyone

Boy, I need a rest

Great kick

Tunnel time

Go Blue Bombers!

The Bombers had another great game, but I'm sad to say that today's game did not go our way. The boys and girls had so much fun playing, and that's what counts. Myles did great. He was all over the field. I don't have many pictures of his game because it started raining the quarter that he was playing!

Pre-game prayer

Nice block

Right in the mix of things

Going after the ball

What's that? A satsuma!

That's right. Believe it or not our satsuma tree has finally produced it's first satsuma! We haven't told the boys for fear that they will pick it off! Now if we can only get the orange and banana tree to produce, we'll be in the business!

New adventure

Yesterday was a big day for Myles. It was the first time he rode his bike to Moo Moo's house all by himself! Connor & I drove the van behind him to make sure he got there okay. He was so excited & couldn't believe that he was riding by himself. He kept turning around & smiling at me & Connor the entire ride!

On my way to Moo Moo's

Looking back at us!

Finally arriving at Moo Moo's house

Ted's costume style skating party

We spent another afternoon at the skating rink today celebrating Ted's 7th birthday. The invitation read that Ted wanted everyone to wear a costume so Myles went as Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars and Connor went as Spiderman. They were so cute & so excited about going. They both had a great time there. Connor really came out of his shell today and skated the entire time! He was so cute. Myles put some good wear on his Healys. He was excited about getting to wear them since so many stores have banned them and he can't wear them to school!
