Fall FUN!!

We have had lots of fun this season. The weather has been so awesome. The most fun we had was our Bonfire and First Ever Cornhole Tournament. We had trophies and everything. There are pictures of the winners, Tim and Mitch one first!! We are going to have the whole sha-bang next year. It will probably be the end of September or beginning of October again. We had so much fun!! I am already looking forward to next year's. I am listing some of the things we have done and posting some pictures. Unfortunately, I don't have pictures of all the fun things. My battery was out for the train ride. Gosh darn it!!


Notice all the "boys" around the fire!!

Mitch and I have really been enjoying the boys. They are so enjoyable and it is getting more fun as they get older to do neat stuff with them. They are also becoming great buddies and really play great together.

The things kids say ...

Two recent conversations I have had with my children (separately) are worth noting here. WARNING one is definitely not G rating and I am not sure where Joey gets his material

Setting: At the computer, Sammy showing or telling me something
Me: Sammy you are so smart.

Sam: I know. I am the second smartest kid in my class.

M: Really, well who is the smartest.

S: Alexis. (Sounding a little upset)

M: Well, Sammy, that's okay.

S: I was thinking I was going to be the smartest kid in my class and then along came Alexis!!!

Setting: In the garage helping Joey out of my car.
Joey: I gotta front wedgie.

Me: A front wedgie?

Joey: You know? When your underwear gets stuck to your balls?

Me: No, Joey, I really don't.

Taking Joey to see his "Superheros"

About two weeks ago I took Joey to the Children's Museum. He had his own class about concoctions then we went to see the superhero exhibit. He thought it was so cool since everyday he is a different superhero. That day he was Green Lantern (see the costume). He was excited to see the Batmobile, he calls it the Batman Vehicle, but was a little disappointed he didn't get to "drive" it. We had a super day and I was glad to be able to have some "Joey" time.
