I Am Back

Yes, you are right, I have been a slacker. We have been a little busy (I know, NO excuses) and this is what has taken the back burner. I have some cute pictures and video to share, but I have to down load them to my computer first (another thing that has taken the back burner). So....I will post them in the next few days.

OUR WEEKEND

Sean had a half day of school on Friday. I picked him up and we went straight over to Aunt Jessie's house. The boys were going to have a sleep over, for the whole weekend:) James, unfortunately is on night shift, so Friday after dropping off the boys I didn't know what to do with myself. James was sleeping and the boys were at Aunt Jessie's. I had to drop some stuff over my fokes house on the way home and they invited me to go out to dinner with them. I was so glad they did. We went to Docs, a local favorite, and had a really nice evening.

On Saturday we had a church Valentine dinner, and it was a ton of fun. James took Saturday night off, so we were able to stay for the whole Valentine dinner and the two of us went to church the next morning.

When Sunday rolled around it was good to get my boys back. It was a beautiful day and the boys wanted to play outside when we got home. James and I wrestled with them on the trampoline and then they climbed trees. They had a blast.

I am using these photo for my project 365.

Dinner Conversation

The conversation at our dinner table is determined by what we are having. If it is something that Sean likes there is not much conversating (more eating going on than talking). IF it is something that he does not like (which is often, he is very picky), he is very chatty because if he is talking he cant eat (that would be rude). Well, last night we had spaghetti (which he doesn't like, shocker), so he was pretty talkative. Normally getting information out of him goes something like this......

Me: asking Sean, how was your day at school?
Sean: Fine!
Me: What did you learn at school today?
Sean: I don't know.
Me: Who did you play with?
Sean: No one.
Me: You didn't play with anyone?
Sean: No, just played by myself.


Which I know is Bologna.


Its all pretty much one word answers, not a talker, unless he is really excited about something or he doesn't like dinner. So back to the dinner conversation..... Sean said "today is Ground Hog day". I said "really", James chimed in "yeah it is, you are right buddy". I said "how did you know that it was Ground Hog day?" Sean said "Mrs. Nuse (his teacher) told me, and if the ground hog comes out and sees his shadow we will have 6 more weeks of Christmas!" He was so excited. Wouldn't you be! Six more weeks of Christmas! I told him "I think that it is 6 more weeks of winter (but what do I know, I didn't even know that it was Ground Hogs day). He replied with an "oh". I didn't mean to burst his bubble, but who could afford six weeks of Christmas. He is such a cutie.
