It's Thursday

I couldn't think of anything else flashier to call the title :) So I went with the obvious...It's Thursdaaayyyy...sounds flashy right?

We've had a pretty busy week and I've got pictures to share. WARNING: non of these pictures have been "fixed". Sorry, I'd rather get to updating, in bed (with laptop), and then to sleep. I have a lot of wine labels to work on for my dad and I need to get to cracking...

So...here's what's up :)

In my last post, I mentioned going to MOMS Night Out, these following pictures lead up to that evening. I thought Paul might want to smile with his darling wife, but nope...he dreads having his picture taken. Lovely right, not even a pretend half, non-teeth smile to show he cares....hmphh.

Big wee one and I were just about to start taking some self-portraits when Little wee one ran over and actually wanted in the pictures. Shocked? I am! These are some of the cuter ones that came out. Sorry the girls look all scruffy, but it was right before bed time :) Little wee one is actually smiling, even though she's not looking at the camera. :) And my head looks big and round...definitely not a nice angle for me! You have to do the silly face shot. Or two...this one is tongue themed.Big wee one left and Little wee one still wanted to take pictures. I was thrilled!Here we are at MOMS night out. Those two are some funny gals :)What is she laughing that hard about?? Can you guess?? I bet you could never guess, because why would you think anything bad if you know a bunch of moms are hanging out playing "dirty bingo"?? Some lucky lady went home with a packet of "Cock" soup...that's right! Cock flavored soup. I'll just let that sing in. I seem to entertain those around me, and this was no exception. One mom pulled out her dirty bingo gift from last year! This mom is now pregnant...wonder if she pulled out this "fireman's outfit"...lol, just kidding. I'm pretty sure she didn't pull it out, and I'm also pretty sure they make these "nice" outfits for ladies the size of toothpicks. This is me doing my "fat guy in a little coat" impersonation. My undies remind me of wonder woman...hehehe.
This is what I left with. Horrible picture of me, but I thought the bottle looked like it was on fire. And since it looks like its on fire, it goes with the fire outfit from above...ha!We've had spurts of nice days and when that happens we head to the park. Big wee one got her face painted at school, hence the cool pink semi-rubbed off tattoo on her forehead.Little wee one is still a little weary of the park equipment. She goes very slowly and says, "I not scared, I not scared. I can do it." Cutie.She decided to ditch the big kid stuff and head to the dinosaur.This was the clan that we went to the park with. Out of my 6-pack girlfriends, there are only 4 boys out of 16 kids! There is always a lot of high pitched squealing going on.If no one is around she'll go down the slide, but if people are around...forgetta bout it.These girls were going insane with the squealing on this tire swing. It was pretty cute! Oh, wait...I see a boy on there, but I do remember him asking very quickly to get off...hehe.CHEEESSEEEE!

Wednesday night was lax night. The guys had a game at home, and though it had rained all day, it wasn't that cold out. It was actually pretty humid, so I layered the girls in their pj's and then sweats on top and we headed to the game. They did awesome (the girls and the team), but were completely soaked when we left! The bleachers had little puddles and were just wet, but they had fun and didn't complain once about being wet.When I was pulling up to the stadium, my stomach got a little excited. This view completely reminds me of high school. The excitment for the Friday night game! The lights, the smell of the concession stand food, the drums from the band, the stadium filled with people. I don't care if you were in the band, worked the gate, played football, cheered, sat in the stadium, hung out under the bleachers, danced in the dance line...whatever it was, if you went to high school and went to Friday night football games (especially in TX) you know that excited feeling I'm talking about...and these big lights so reminded me of that!Here's Coach Flohr prep talking a player. I didn't get very good pictures because my battery started dying, my lense started to fog up and the light and dark mode couldn't quite mesh into happy harmony. Hence blur.He looks so handsome out there, all serious like!
It looks like he's sweet talking the ref right here. The wee ones enjoying the game. Little wee one is really starting to spurt up, she's in the pink jacket. Doesn't she look tall?? Her legs are starting to get long as well...taking after her sister and her grandma.Apparently, when it's really humid and muggy out Little wee one gets little ringlets and it is so stinking cute!! I kept asking her if I could take her picture and she kept telling me no, which isn't a big surprise, but it would have been cute to have her looking at me with a smile and her ringlets.More ringlets :)In a very rare moment, Paul and I are both home at 8:00 pm and are both ready for bed. Have a great night!

We can smell spring...

We know it's right around the corner, but we certainly aren't feeling any warmth. We wake up in the morning and see the bright shining sun, but then pull out our winter coats...will it ever warm up? I mean, we didn't get any snow this year, anything that amounted to FUN, so atleast we could have the warmth back...right?!!
Needless to say, at Paul's first lax game, we FROZE! Big wee one had to have Teej warm up her hands, because the mom (of the year!) didn't bring gloves. You want to know why...because the darn sun is so deceiving! I know its cold outside, but I think to myself, "the sun is shining, it'll be warmer then I think". WRONG! When we were leaving the game BWO fell on the track, onto her cold hands, and I'm pretty sure my brother in Guam heard her screaming. I feel ya sister, and that is the exact reason why we are home and not at the game this evening. It's freaking cold out! **Update: we won tonight against Harrisburg Academy 13-5, and it was cold and it started to rain as they were leaving...I'm glad I'm home and my nails are painted, along with my toenails...just making sure everything is ready for when it does warm up**
Here are the pics from the game:
Action shot. I love pictures like this with people flying in the air.
Coach Flohr watching the face off (I'm assuming, he could be watching the birds fly for all I know).

This Davis, he's the second goalie to Dan the Man...he's a sophomore this year (I believe) which makes Coach Flohr very happy :)This is "Biscuit"...I asked his twin sister why they called him that (Paul gave him the name) and she said it's because he's "fluffy" lol...seriously!? He was pretty intense at this game, good action coming from him.Big wee one does a lot of this through the games and so does Little wee one, but she doesn't let me take pictures of her :-) I bought these "special" pens from the dollar spot in Target, HUGE HIT!

GOAL! This is the goalie from above's brother...I think. It's hard to remember everyone, but he's a good one to watch :-)Half-time...this wasn't a good game. We got our butts handed to us, so I'm pretty sure, the guys were not looking forward to the half-time "talk".Did I mention that a lot of the guy's gave themselves mohawks...it's pretty gnarly, I wonder how long they will keep them. BWO hanging out with Grandma, watching the game. Really, I think she was throwing away a lot of trash and hanging with Grandma. She decided after half-time that she was on clean up duty. Whatever keeps her busy.Another action shot from "Biscuit". He literally leaped/flipped over the top of this guy...insane! This is what the coaches like to do after the game. Thanks to Grandma & Grandad who came in for the weekend, for buying all those delicious crabs! You know they were enjoyed by all...pretty much until about 3 am! Makes for an early morning the next day, but luckily the girls let us sleep until about 9 am! Aren't they so sweet :-)

Teej is Coach Schellhorn's main squeeze and has been my game sidekick, but unfortunately, she won't be able to make too many more games, since they are during the week :( We'll miss ya Teej!Speaking of sweet little girls...they've been into laying in bed and watching movies together. It's so cute!! And they aren't arguing, just hanging out.

The color on this picture is totally funky, but she's SMILING! So I had to add it :)

She's up to no good! Doesn't she look like she caused some trouble?

I can't believe that she's 4 now! I'm still trippin' on that one. Seems like just yesterday she was born and we were living outside Philly...crazy how time flies and life changes!

I wouldn't change anything :) Life is busy but good...thanks for checking us out!

Scrimmage Pics

The lax team has had scrimmages the past two Saturday's. We went to the first scrimmage, and it looked a lot like this:
Big wee one hanging on the fence, and shortly after Little wee one figured out that she can do it too!
Paul's squat pose...we will see this a lot through out the year.

Face-offs...not so sure the Trojans won many of them, but that's what scrimmages are for, to work out the kinks.#18 is a senior this year, he'll be missed! But for now, he's working out the defense strategy.This image CRACKED me up! Literally every where you looked there were scores of refs running around. They were teaching the new refs, so they literally followed and chased the "seasoned" refs. It was semi-annoying because you couldn't see much action with all the black and white in the way. Guess you have to learn.
Big wee one made a new friend and was playing all afternoon with her. When I turned around to check on her at one point, this is what I saw. And this is what I thought, "OUCH! How do her legs do that?"
An action shot.Running. (Interesting stuff right!?)
Little wee one had a rough afternoon. She fell through the steps of the bleachers, and was fine, but then got hungry, wanted to play by herself, but with her big sister. She also wanted to wander...here, she walked all the way down to the other side and just sat down. I think she was playing with a sticker book.
Because I didn't realize how long we were going to be there, the girls ate all their snacks and then literally became wild animals, wanting to eat more and more and MORE! This is all I had left in my purse, a packet of dry brown sugar oatmeal. They ate it, and LOVED it! It was also a HUGE mess! Good idea for the moment, bad idea for the mess!Paul's first real game of the season is this Saturday. Grandma & Grandad are coming in and hopefully I can find my camera before then :-) Have a great start to your week.
