Sweat Lodge

daddy — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 01:54:29 +0000

The girls went out to dinner with some friends so us boys had a boys night. Legos, video games, wrestling and of course sweating.

After we got Evan to bed Jon and I headed out to the porch (aka sweat lodge since the heat index was 105 today) to work on his Lego ship.

You can’t really see it in the picture but it was very hot and we were sweaty and light headed from all the fun.

At one point Jon said he wanted to see his bed so I told him to get his pj’s on and by the time I made it up stairs he was asleep.

We only have about 75 more steps to go and we are done.

Snakes

I ran across this video the other day and thought the kids would get a kick out of it.

The largest dead snake ever found, over 50 feet. from Steven on Vimeo.

So of course I had to video their reactions.

Here is Jon’s.

And here is Lily’s.

Soccer Boy

Jon starts soccer practice on March 4th so we went out this evening and got him some new shoes, shorts and socks/shin guards. He was pretty excited to try it all on. He was probably even more excited to not be wearing Lily’s old soccer stuff. Lily got some new shoes and shorts for the spring soccer season as well, pictures of her are coming soon.

Super Heroes

The kids decided to play super heroes this morning.

Olympic Viewing

We have been trying to introduce the kids to the concept of the Olympics, they didn’t really get it at first but really liked the snow boarding. In fact they liked it so much they have to get their equipment ready everytime we watch.

A visit from the police

daddy — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 01:47:08 +0000

The other day while at Walmart Jen picked up a new toy for the kids, she then proceeded to send me a text message that said she should not be allowed to take the kids to Walmart. The toy she bought was a police car rider, why we needed another rider is a story for another day.

Here are the boys in the new rider.

And here is a shot of the whole thing, which you can see is actually pretty cool.

So today Jen sends me a text message that reads, the police were just at our house, yikes I think. I text her back and ask if Evan dialed 911, since he loves to grab anything with buttons and start pushing them. Nope, she says.

As it turns out the whole thing was even more innocent than that. Jen was outside with Evan and Jon playing with the rider, it was cold so she left Jon out to take Evan inside. She gets inside and as soon as she turns around she sees Jon talking to a guy in a car, then the emergency lights start to flash. Her heart dropped as she thought that Jon was in the road and the lights were for him. Before she can get outside the local sheriff’s cruiser drives off.

Jon was just having a chat with the nice officer who was admiring his car. Jon said, he asked me if I had lights and sirens? To which he said yes and turned them on. Then the officer showed Jon his lights.

I am sure that pretty much made Jon’s day and gave mommy a couple of gray hairs.
