Pink Fuzzy Slippers!

Two Boys Goofin' Around

Once Owen decided to share the gear, they had a blast playing like they were daddy. Worked well to amuse them while Brian washed the car.

"I need that mask, too!"

Fire Fighter Owen

Owen got a kick out of playing with Brian's helmet while he washed the car this weekend.

So much for order restored

One morning off of preschool and this is what can be accomplished. Oh, and yeah, I caved on the TV ban, too.

Is it Friday, yet?

This week, though it was a short one, feels sooooo long!

I thought that I simplifying my life by signing the kids up only for swimming and Scouts this session. I neglected to consider that swimming is three nights a week! Tonight is the first meet of the session - it's a backstroke meet, which is Jared's specialty stroke.

Another year older

Yikes! Another birthday? What's happening?

Yes, I had another birthday yesterday. It ended up being a nice day. I got the kids off to school and went into the office (second time in 2009). Holly had suggested lunch, so we headed over to the restaurant FKA Tres Amigos. I got my favorite, beef & cheese enchiladas. Yummy.

It was a little eerie walking into the restaurant at noon and finding it was dead silent. Everyone was watching the Inaurural events on TV.

After work and picking the kids up from school/swim, we all headed up to Brighton for dinner. I gave the kids a few choices and they picked IHOP. Not MY first choice, but with a 4 1/2 and 7 1/2 year old, it worked. I had peach cobbler pancakes - highly recommended.

On the new president...whatever, thanks a lot, America. Happy Birthday to me.
