Welcome to my crazy life! As a mommy to 3 adorable boys my days are full of adventure and fun. I am realizing that time goes by so quickly and I don't want to forget all the cute things that the boys say and do. I hope that this blog will serve as a journal to record all those precious moments...

Broccoli!


We had another great weekend.  We went up to Nova to celebrate my Dad's 60th birthday (a little early).  All my siblings, their spouses, and Mom and Dad went to a yummy french restaurant in Alexandria.  We had a great time and enjoyed having an adult night out!
While we were enjoying our dinner, Eric was babysitting Logan (who was surprisingly very good for him) and the boys went with Miranda and their Grandma to see bull riding.  They had a great time!

After Colin's church class, Dennis did a quick trip to the grocery store.  Earlier in the day Evan said he wanted broccoli.  So, when Dennis told him "I have a surprise for you that I got at the grocery store", Evan came running and said "BROCCOLI"!  Dennis took it out of the bag and showed him and Evan's eyes got big and he nodded his head!  He has always loved broccoli.  Last year for his birthday we told him we would make whatever he wanted for his birthday and his choice was broccoli!

When Colin was younger he used to make what we would call "squirrel stashes".  For example, you would lift a pillow off the couch and there would be 10 balls under it.  Or, he would put all his cars in a pile under the dining room table.  When he wasn't doing that he was lining up every car he owned or every person in a line all around the house.  It was borderline OCD.  Well, looks like he hasn't lost his desire to group things together and line them up.  Today, while Dennis was watching football and Logan and I were napping, the boys lined up all their action figures!!!!
