Drooling over shoes

Every now and then I find something really cool that I just drool over. No I don't "need" these but man!

Reed's quotes 6

At Ci Ci's Pizza, Reed's wants a brownie. I tell him he can go by himself if he wants to go get it, just get a clean plate, don't touch the food with your hands, use the TONGS. Reed thinks a minute, then says, "Mom, you really want me to use my TONGUE! (Says this as he's sticking his tongue between his teeth like he's trying to figure out how to do it.)

Ah, ha ha ha ha. In my family we would say "You broke your pole?" (What we always say when someone misunderstands what you said.)

Visiting grandparents, fun pics

Old fashioned summer fun:

We had to get new tires on the van. It had one good tire and 3 really bad ones. We decided to make a swing out of the one good one. Here are a few pics of our new toy.

Reed's quotes 5

You might be a Nascar fan: We're driving down the road going to see some of the Karen at Wherry Housing Community and decided to pray for them. The kids asked me to pray. As soon as I said Amen, Reed started singing the National Anthem. (That's how they do it at the races. The National Anthem always comes after the prayer.) It cracked me up.

The kids were playing upstairs. Cate came down and said they had been exercising and they were sweaty. Reed came down and said, "Mommy, my heart is beeping."

Reed's quotes:

Mommy, apples are juicy because they have apple juice in them. And grapes are juicy because they have grape juice in them.

Small Fry Tri

We started the morning off by going to the Small Fry Triathlon. It was really cute and the kids had fun. We actually ran it twice. It was kind of short. The kids got trophies and they both thought they won. Reed kept saying, "that's my first win in Tennessee." He's so funny.

Another Milestone!
