STRADEGY FOR LOVE

It sounds like a cheesy VH1 reality show, but in reality it is Mace's new tactic for wedging himself in between you and your target (the Legos) to insure more pats on the head. You really would think this dog gets no attention...

THE SECOND WEEK OF AUGUST

is a busy one now...

Back to school...
Such handsome boys!

First Grader! So hard to believe... just so hard...

And a 4th grader...

Harrison started a new school. It's like he's going to middle school early. The plan is to be here for 4th-8th. I'm happy he's so confident and excited. I know it's a good move, but....

Yep... He's happy. We had Sully's play-date birthday party at the end of the week. He only had four friends over so that he could give them cool goodie bags. Our activity was to build bionicles.

The goodie bags had classics like electrical tape, popsicle sticks, and other things normal children just love...

The cake was a groovy Meltdown assaulting the cream cheese volcano...

My baby is 6!

Harrison has started wrapping one of his things for Sully every holiday. This time he got a pocket knife. Sully was pretty excited.

We had a family party at Lolly and Pop-Pop's with Tori & Wart.
Cake Wreck!

We were really hoping that someone would give Sully a baby sister.

Beck saved the cake! Woohoo! Then more gifts... no sister... sigh... maybe next year...

I THINK HE HAS A FUTURE IN MAGNETIX...
