Jets Football

Owen is number 21. He's the one with the long blonde hair hanging out of his helmet.

Carter is number 37 in the huddle. It has been so much fun watching them play this year. I have loved every minute of it. And they were so excited to finally get a win yesterday. Tackle football has been a great experience for them! They are going to be sad when it is over.

My handsome towhead!

What's Wrong with this Photo?

I shouldn't even post this photo, but it is so funny. Just look at that all-American boy smile behind that 12-pack. Between the empty beer cans, the "smokers" (aka cigarette butts) and this empty beer box, my child has had much exposure to things he has never had his hands on before. This lovely box now sits outside our apartment door with a variety of treasures in it, including a piece of a shingle, a couple straws, a plastic cup, some sticks and some rocks. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Apartment living is an adventure.

The Orchard

Lewis had a ball at the Center Grove Apple Orchard with his preschool class. His favorite parts were the corn pool and the jumping pillow.

The Urinal

Pretty sure I'll be the only gal in town with one of these in the bathroom. I guess my husband heard me complain one too many times about cleaning up around the boys' toilet.

Maid Service

He doesn't always make messes. Tonight he cleaned my kitchen sink in his Kung Fu Panda skivvies.

House Update and Another Look Back in Time

It's starting to look like a house!! Hard to imagine what it's going to be like to live in there, but we are all excited about it. I'm SUPER-excited for a mudroom, which by the way, will be larger than my current kitchen. :) A blast from the past - Zorro, Spiderman and our friends' daughter Casey hanging out in the sand in front of our Northwood Circle house. And there's a good-looking guy working in the background.

House Update - Framing

The Trusses
View from Northeast corner of dining room. The big hole in the wall is the front door. The hole in the floor will be stairs.


View from kitchen looking into the living room. The space between the two windows will have a real wood-burning fireplace.

Northwest corner. The boys are climbing into the masterbath.

Garage. Two cars wide and on the east side, two cars deep.
