We got a great package yesterday from Nana and Papa. Inside was these two hit sticks, great fun for the two of us.

Have you ever tried to do something and then your wife calls to tell you all the things you forgot? Yeah, that was our morning. As I am driving my son to school this morning I thought we had everything covered and didn’t even have to worry about waking up mom. Was I ever wrong! Half way to school she calls to let me know I forgot a snack, he was supposed to wear his school shirt, and he didn’t have a drink for lunch. Sooo, needless to say we had to turn around and go back home. As I took him in to school 15 minutes late, I heard him tell his teacher, “My dad was running late!” He is three, we didn’t rehearse excuses on the way to school, he came up with this on his own. What do you say to that?

Last weekend we went to a FREE Pumpkin Patch. It was huge!!! Face painting, bounce houses, hay rides and a so called train ride! Our family had fun together and enjoyed spending the time with our friends!

My son and I played baseball this morning. We were practicing his swing. Keep in mind he is only 3 so he is doing really well. But after about 10 minutes, he was asking for the bubbles. That either says something about my coaching skilz or his attention span.

Mom’s bring a football home for later. We will see how that goes!

Well the afternoon started with a 2 and 1/2 hour traffic jam. But all in all the night ended with some good memories:

• My 3 Year old having to pee in a cup in the car because of traffic
• Youngest son (4 months) crying in the car (not fun)
• Hiking to a very crowded park to see the balloons and pushing a stroller up a huge hill
• Josiah’s first johnny on spot visit (he really tried to aim but peed all over the seat! The bad news, no toilet paper to do a courtesy wipe.)
• Meeting new friends!!!!
• 1st time seeing hot air balloons at night
• Fireworks were ok but short!

Good Night with the Family!!!

We are getting ready to go to the Plano Balloon Festival! It should be a fun afternoon with the Family! I will post pics later!!!
