Golf, teachers and fat.

Great quotes from Florida:

Wes was happy to have the window seat on our flight down and I sat between him and Connor. As we were approaching Fort Myers for landing we were checking out the Gulf of Mexico. Wes was showing me the "big pond" as I corrected him and told him it was the Gulf. He proceeded to tell me that no one could hit a golf ball across that course.

While visiting the beach in Cape Coral we were enjoying a walk along the pier. As we were returning I spotted a school of fairly large fish. I pointed this out to the boys and told Wes..."see the school of fish?" He wanted to know which one was the teacher.

While also at the beach there were several older women wearing two piece bathing suits they had no business wearing. My favorite was a woman in her late 50's who seemed to think that she was all that and a bag of chips. Chris even commented as she was walking around with her bikini top undone, I sure hope that doesn't come down! Unfortunatley she walked by us while we were sitting on the pier. Connor took one look at her, points at her and says "What's that?" She fortunately had a small purse in her hand and I told him it was a purse. She stopped to show herself off and said "boys sure start looking at the ladies much younger these days!" I wanted to gag, she was so nasty. Obviously even Connor thought that she was weird. He didn't look at anyone else at the beach as ask, "What's that?" I wanted to tell him that she was a fat old lady dressed inappropriately and "that" was wrinkled fat!

Anyway...those were just a few tidbits I wanted to remember before I forgot. I'll post more of our trip when we return. The boys were so good coming down on our flight and have been good here as well. So far we are having a great vacation.

So busy

We have been so busy around here. I see it has been weeks since I've made a post, shame on me. I've finally nearly over a sinus infection and the boys are healthy again. We had a nice Valentine's Day, Purdue beat IU and Chris and I went to see Delirium by Cir De Sole (or however you spell it).

We are packed and ready to head to Florida tomorrow. Every single one of us can not wait for a week of sun, relaxing and vacation time. Wes can't wait to show Daddy his new moves in the pool and I just want some sun. Till we return. Adios!

Stupid Germs

Yuck. I am now sick with the stupid germs that have been in our house. My throat was sore yesterday but last night and today it is raw. My head is killing me, I can't breathe and my ears hurt. Such fun. Thank you very much Wes! Why is it that when our children get sick we can hardly keep them parked but when I'm sick all I want to do is lay around? Unfortunately, the lay around option doesn't work well for the boys. Wish me luck today!

Yeah Dad!

The best news of the day and the best news for a while is that my Dad had his annual angiogram to check his fixed AVM and the results were very positive. They showed no change, which is exactly what we wanted! That is such great news and I think my mom is finally starting to breathe again. I know I was holding my breath today until I got the news. Yeah for Dad and thanks to the great doctors at Henry Ford Hospital!

In other news...it's cold. Yeah, we know, we know. But I had forgotten what true cold felt like. It's been a while since I remember feeling what 0 degrees felt like. And, thank you very much, I'd rather not feel it again for a while. But, it's still cold and will remain that way for a while. Therefore, the count down to Florida is on. 15 days until we go to Florida!

Wes has a cold, Connor is fighting off the cold and I am coming down with the cold. Wes missed school yesterday but was very much up to going today. I figure that if he can run around the house and terrorize his little brother than he is up to going to school.

That's about it for now. Still no new bowling team mate. Tami and I are liking it just being us and we are trying to see how long we can get away with that! Purdue won their b-ball game last night. We might go to a hockey game tomorrow night...and that's about it!

400 Series

I bolwed a 423 series today, really. I was on fire today! Everyone watching me kept asking what I was doing different...I finally decided I was putting a little more strength into my last two step and the ball was hitting the lane faster. Whatever it was...I'll take a 423 series. Now I get a cool pin!!! Maybe not worth the stiffness in my left knee, but...Yeah me!
