They're going to be GREAT husbands someday!

Someday in the FAR future! On Tuesdays, the little boys stay at Grandma and Grandpa's now that my class has started and love to have dinner there. There's a usual rotation including subs, McDonald's and "pasghetti". Grandma is brave enough to let them "help" during the making of their favorite! I'm sure just out of range of the camera lens is the broom waiting to be called into battle...

Check that backswing!

Parker and I played 9 holes today and as we got to the 7th tee box, Parker said "Uh oh!" and motioned towards the trees. Yup, paparazzi lurking with camera in hand. OK, technically it was Gary (Kurt's dad), but there was a camera present, nonetheless! He is sweet enough to let us use the golf cart practically anytime we ask, so what are ya gonna do?! =)
This tee shot was not my best of the day, so I'm awfully happy that no frames were wasted on it! Parker did step up and ask Grandpa where he was for #6--I had a great tee shot on that hole!!

Summer's last blast--probably

At the pool anyway! With school starting on Tuesday, Sunday will be the last day of swimming at the public pool. However, the forecast sounds less than promising that we'll be able to tolerate the water IF they even open the doors! So we made it up there this afternoon and the boys wanted to go again tonight--with Mom's camera along for the ride. They sure have browned up since our first trip, which seems like only about 2 weeks ago =(

Bribery Payoff

Bribery only works if you follow through, so after our foray into 1st grade we had to head over to the promised dinner. The boys just say spaghetti and ice cream and that translates into China Buffet. Paxton sat so sweetly while I took his picture. And then there's Beckett. First Paxton and Kurt had to "convince" him to look at the camera and then the entertainment portion of the night began...

First Grade Meet and Greet

Tonight at Paxton's school we had the opportunity to go in before school starts next week to find his classroom, put supplies away and meet his new teacher. He was a little hesitant at first, but Kurt bribed him with dinner of spaghetti and ice cream (we are not beneath bribery, I admit it). Once he hit the classroom though, he warmed right up and found his seat and happily unloaded his backpack. Then he explored a bit got comfortable with his surroundings. Here's hoping all goes as well on Tuesday!!

Wordless Wednesday....

Glad it's not a house...

Wow, Wizard of Oz anyone? Last night I had stopped taking pictures for eBay listings, but Beckett decided it was too tempting to NOT play in that corner. When he pulled off a tag of a new item (MAJOR no-no, right eBayer's?), he got in trouble. That made him sad so he covered himself with a pillow and in about 45 seconds he was asleep. No, I didn't leave him there =)
