The "BIG SNOW" of 2008

Well, here is the sights of today. This has literally closed our city. Lots of cities actually! It has cancelled our plans and predicted our day.




I love summer

As I slowly awake
The sunshine, through my eyelids, it starts to seep
Oh wait, that's NOT a mower
It's a damned SNOW BLOWER!
I'm going back to sleep

They never flinched. Not even when I had to scrub with the wash cloth to get them off!! ha ha






Oh...and just so you know...Eric's arm band goes all the way around!! YEAH!! WOOOOO!!! He's the man!!! YEAH!

Don't tell them you saw it here!!









They are so loving, and cuddly and sweet sometimes! And rugged and strong and manly ALL the other times!!!!

Christmas all wrapped up in one neat little blog



I love this picture, it looks like an old one. Almost Christmas Story-ish huh? It was this year, downtown. Santa flies into Wooster and lands on the roof of the fancy shmancy art store and the firemen put the ladder truck up to get him down. What? That's not the usual arrival?? You're kidding me!!

Anyhow, the people dressed as pineapple roaming the streets giving out balloons keeps the "good old fashioned Christmas traditions" alive...wait...huh?
























This one was taken this week actually!! They had a snow day, then a 60 degree day and today...ICE STORM! Woot, Ohio
Awww, I love this picture. We did a darn good job on that gingerbread house. Such a good job that no one was allowed to eat it, so it got hard, and after Christmas was over..was thrown away. Yeah, I'm proud. (The icing wasn't very tasty anyhow)























Brendan's head can be seen JUST above the row of snowmen...yeah, he blends in..lol
His class made about a hundred and a half sock snowmen and took them to the Akron Children's hospital to pass out. He was so hyped. They were so cute....and so were the snowmen *wink*




For some reason, this is one of the only pictures I got of them opening presents this year. Eric was ESTATIC to see he was given a Star Wars ship. Aww, there's Aunt Ruth in the front of the picture. I wish I got to see her and Kitty more often. (Hi Kitty!!)


OMG!! I think I reached maximum blog space!! That's a first!

up next..T ball


Eric played T ball. Coach Chico is great with the kids. All 500 of them. No, no, there weren't that many, but boy it seemed like it! I think baseball might be Eric's sport. Which is sort of funny since he started off such a clumsy kid!! lol, awww, my baby....

(don't roll your eyes! he really is my baby and vows to stay my baby!!)

more sports post


Baseball picture of Brendan..this isn't on here already is it? Well, it doesn't matter. I'm on such a roll, I'm not turning back now!

Baseball was a great time for Brendan. He finally got to do something alone (without little brother) I'm having a hard time letting them do things seperately. I know they SHOULD, don't preach to me (no really I appreciate the advice) but I am so afraid one will be jealous/mad/envious/emotionally distraught...sigh...ok. I just don't know what/when is best to let them go on their own. Heck, I still haven't let Katie go!! and she's 18 now you know!!

Baseball Theresa...baseball...ok. I love sports, I love summertime. This was an awesome chance to sit in the sun and cheer my big guy on.

He was so good at it too! (I know, you are trying to act shocked) Good Job Brendan! Good job. :-)

bball boys


Here is big brother giving little bro tips.

Brendan and Eric both loved playing basketball this year. Eric didn't mind that he couldn't throw as high as the (lowered) hoops and that during the last game, which was kids against the parents, I lifted him up to the hoop several times.

I can't wait to take them to a professional game....I'm so glad they are into sports
