Confident

Mom and I were very excited to find this binder in B's backpack yesterday!

It told us all about every kid in B's class.

We learned what they like and what their favorite color is.

All of the girls like rainbows and ponies and princesses.  Yeesh!

And of course they like all things purple and red and girly.

B's buddy Aiden likes dogs and trucks and boy stuff.

Most of the boys liked Blue or Green.

Another masculine boy.

Pretty flowers...  man

See what I mean?

Then we got to the "Vs" and B's page.  He likes Fish??

Oh man!  We both burst out laughing here! Can you believe my tough, rowdy, no nonsense beefy little brother likes PINK?! 

Well he's comfortable in his own skin I guess.  We love you B, you crazy kid!

Friday Funday!

While Mom and Cole were at the Eye Dr. Jonah's Mommy took the two of us to the Children's Museum!

Of course, I loved the trains.

We pretended to be monkeys.

Here we are in deep discussion about Angry Birds over lunch.

Then we pretended to be a Mommy (me) and Daddy (Jonah) Dinosaur and we "betected" our eggs!

We spent a little time building and a LOT of time 'stroying!

then we finished with a quick trip to the moon. We are best buddies and can't get enough of each other. Thank you Jonah Mommy SO much for an awesome day!

Oh, and about 20 minutes after I arrived at home, Mom says it got very quiet. This is where she found me. I sure am a lucky kid!

Annual Trek to Dr. Plager's Office

"I guess I'll pick....   that one!"

Coley got out of school early today to go see Dr. Plager. As usual, he was quite entertaining while they ran the tests!

And of course we stopped in to see our dear Lana. Cole's eyes improved a teensy tiny little bit so he picked out a few new styles. Stay tuned for photos with new specs (these are not them).

Scenes From the Ballpark

As you know, I've spent many many hours of my life at the ballpark. I've gotten REALLY good at yelling "heeey batta batta batta batta, hey batta SWING!"  On Wednesday the game wasn't so bad because we got to play Hayden's team again which meant I got to flirt with Hayden's Mommy and play with my best buddy Austin!

These two may play for opposite teams, but they'll always be there for each other. Austin and I really love our brothers.

And we learned that Bugga and Ota really love their peanuts!  One of the best parts of the ball game!

I like being rowdy on the bleachers. Esp. when it gives Mom a near heart attack.

And we all love cheering for the boy in the red helmet.  Thanks for coming down Grandma, Ota and Bugga!

Well Loved

As you know, our Grandma kinda sorta loves us to bits and pieces.  Well, we love her too!  She, Bugga and Ota drove 6 hours to watch me play 4 hours of baseball on Sunday.  That is love!

I had one of the best games of the season!  Three great hits, a couple of outs and a really solid performance by my whole team.  I think they were good luck!

Also, I'm officially back into it :)  Whew! 

When we got home, Bugga tried to run off on Daddy's mower.

I guess you're never too old for a joyride.

Go Bugga Go!!

Then it was inside for a special cake for a very special lady.

I went around the room letting everyone know exactly how old they were. I never forget!

Oh and we sang and gave her presents and hugs and kisses and did all we could do to ensure she knows we treasure her.

We are Grandma's Boys through and through.

Thanks so much for coming down to see us and making our day Grandma!  We hope you know just how much we love you because we surely know how much you love us! 

Color Us Rad - Again!

Mom's work was nice enough to sponsor another team of runners for the Color Me Rad Special Olympics run this year!  Once again, we three stole the show :)

Jonah's Mommy came bright and early with us.  We love her!

And this year, Mr. Todd came!  I think he may have had more fun than anyone else because he bought about a zillion bags of powder and couldn't dump them on people fast enough :) 

He brought Seylor too!  Cole ditched us about a mile in and hung out with these two cool dudes instead.

Oh and Mr. Rocky and Mrs. Noelle came!  We got to have dinner with them Thursday night and douse them in color all morning Saturday.  They are definitely new favorites.

Mr. Todd spared NOBODY.  Even his deal Mom got covered from head to toe!

There was a lot more color this year.  We loved it!

Another Mommy fave!  Hayden was at his Dad's house, but we got to have his Mom anyway!  Next year, we could use your help Hay and Aut!

Ah... and our besties!  The girls, Julie and Grandma Pat!  Kent and Daddy walked together talking about Palladium and whatever stocks or stamps or guns they liked...  These girls spent the run getting nice and colorful like us! 

Here we are before the race even started.  Notice B was much more into the dirtiness this year.  His head was stained blue for church that night.

Here's a little more than half our team.  We had a great crew and an absolutely fantastic time!  see you all again next year!
