I Love My Boys!!!!!

I have to share some funny things my boys have done lately. First of all, Max (9) comes storming into the house the other day. He was out playing football. He blurts out "Mom, where is my journal?" I said "It's under the cupboard, Why?" "Well I'm going to write in it that I officially hate *& # %@ !" Name will remain anonymous.  We got a huge kick out of that!!!!!

Zack (7) told us that he never wants to say the word Massachusettes, because he is afraid he will accidentally say the "S-Word"

Both of them hate to lose!  ( I wonder where they get that from Steve?)  So we have tears or a fight breaking out after each game of basketball, football, Playstation, etc.  And I thought girls were dramatic!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Here's to you Dad - Happy Birthday! I love you!

Happy Valentine's Day

One of my favorite treats!!! Anyway. . . . To my favorite Valentine . . . . Steven! I love you
To my favorite little Valentines. . . . Ashley, Meagan, Emily, Max, and Zack! I love you too!
My 6 favorite people on the whole planet! I am so lucky to have you all forever!

Zack's 1st Stitches

Zack was hurt in his flag football game yesterday, and had to get 5 stitches! He is VERY proud of them and doesn't want to keep the Band-Aid on any more. Thanks to Uncle David for stitching him up at 8:30 in the morning. It was a true miracle that he was home and able to help us!
