Jr’s Football Debut

Michelle — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 11:28:53 +0000

Just in case you’re not a fan of the Colts on Facebook, you don’t follow me or @bgkahuna on Twitter and we don’t know each other on Facebook, here’s the link that made my night last night!!

On the video page there’s a link that says “share” and it says I’ve shared it successfully on WordPress, but I sure can’t see where it’s been shared.

So here’s the link– http://www.colts.com/sub.cfm?page=video&content=98c2c079-79b2-458c-839e-f2c49b5232ba

The boy now sits, riveted, saying “And-roo, football, again!” over and over as the video plays. He’s the boy in the still photo at the beginning of the video (looks similar to the one above) and he’s running toward the end zone around the :50 second mark (in the #44 Dallas Clark jersey). You know it’s him by his crazy hair!

Day 8 of NaBloPoMo is done! Phew!

Weekend Wrap Up

It’s hard to believe this weekend was only 2 days long. I suppose it’s because it really was a 2.5 day weekend, what with our senior citizen date on Friday (which was great, btw…if you like the SATC2 characters, go see it, it’s big fun) and all. After our date, we picked up the kids and attempted to family swim at the gym. Unfortunately, there was a sunscreen incident, and MaM spent the entire time rinsing her eyes out and wailing. After about 30 minutes, we called it quits.

Saturday involved footballs, motorcycles, and WNBA basketball.

BgK won tix at 4pm for the 7pm tip-off. When he told MaM they were going, she said, "Yeah! I get cotton candy!"

Sunday was slightly calmer….Church, the pet store, playground play & cookout with friends, then MaM’s first night of Vacation Bible School.

What she gleaned from tonight?

“God is EVERYWHERE.”

She’s exactly right.

How was your weekend?

Day 6 of NaBloPoMo? In the bag…

We started our visit at the indoor play area, where there was a pioneer kitchen, a play farm (complete with a cow to milk), a general store and a giant train table. I think they would have stayed there forever if there wasn’t the promise of real live animals out in the barns. We saw animals, MAM petted said animals, Jr. roared at all of them. We rode the Tram (very exciting! It’s like a train, Mama, but it’s on the road!), and each time we saw the map, MAM stopped and found where we were, and where we were going. She retraced our entire route, each time she saw a map.

We played in a 19th century school house, walked through a covered bridge, saw a carpenter making the cross-bar of a window frame and played with the wood shavings. We smelled drying herbs, and saw the world’s largest hot air balloon.

We are here. And here is gooood.

Montessori Schmontessori, MAM sat right down with her primer and slate!
