Miles Today: 3.0
Miles This Year: 1484
Goal for the year: 1000 (so there...in your face!)

We did it--we made it through the week.  Dub and Roo both had wonderful days at school today and for that--we got to PARTY!!  3 year-old style!

We set up the killer little fort (circa 1986).  Dub actually lined up their 2 sleeping bags and made an indoor Slippin' Slide that went into the fort.  Nice moves!!

here I go.....!!

he truly was so excited he was shaking!

THey watched a little tv from inside the fort...

best seat in the house!!
But, eventually settled into their easy chairs!


And...look what Big Mama left for the kiddos.  My mother has some crazy infatuation with Krystal Burgers and she thinks they are more valuable then Olympic Gold Medals.  Therefore, they should be passed out, like medals, for awesomeness!! 
Yes--she buys 24 at a time and puts them in her freezer so she can enjoy them whenever her cravings attack.

Everyone was in bed by 7:45 - Awesome!  Hey--Can I get a Krytal Burger over here?!?!  Whoot Whoot!

Miles Today: 4.0
Miles This Year: 1488
Goal for the year: 1000 (so there...in your face!)


This weekend, Montgomery hosted the 2nd Annual Dragon Boat Race!  I did it last year and it was really cool.  However, we could not seem to get our team together again this year.  We had so much fun last year, I just couldn't get into it this year.  I never signed up for a team.

There were over 70 teams this year and 12,000,000 spectators, just a guesstimate.  Good for the city!  I love it when we do stuff like this!  It makes me very proud to say I am from Montgomery, Alabama!  

HOWEVER, instead of being active and social and all that good stuff, Benny and I packed up the kids, loaded up the car, and we went to the lake with some good friends!  
(More or less...this was our weekend in pictures)
the Chefs...hard at work!!
Here's Roo playing peek-a-boo with her new little buddy, Rivers!  These were taken about 30 minutes after Roo was stung by 4 hornets (she got in a nest).  The guys at the house were amazed by her speedy recovery and high pain threshold.  I reminded them that she is a girl!!  We all have high pain thresholds.   



All the buddies on the boat for a booze cruise...


Roo loved to drive the boat!

Dub and C'man are checking things out!

I'm the King of the World!!


umm....who's in charge here?

A very nice weekend!!  Thanks to Morgan and Kelly and especially Wylie and Hillary!  
We had a blast.

On the very long, 30 minute drive back to reality/Montgomery, we discussed ourdinner options.  It was quickly settled...chinese take out!  Perfect ending to our wonderful weekend.  



Questions for today...

Do your kids play with any toys that popular when you were young?

Do your kids actually play with any toys that were yours when you were young??

Anyone else get a last minute trip invite this weekend?

The Booze Cruise...Redneck or Remarkable??
