Go Destroyers!







Last weekend we went to Leesburg outlets and bought some great stuff at the Brooks Brothers outlet at some great prices.  One included a suit for Jonathan.  Well, he wore it on Monday and that day President Bush looked at him and said, "Hey bud!  Nice suit!"  So Jonathan gave him a "good game" swat and they both slapped 5.  Only kidding.  But he did like Jonathan's suit.  Very suave.

Austin is loving his flag football team!  Thought I would post some pics of him as offensive center and defensive noseguard.  

This week he took a class trip to the Stribling Orchard in Markham, VA and picked apples with all his kindergarten classes.  When he brought home his apples, most of them were bruised, with worm holes in them.  But they were special because he picked them.  We peeled them, cut them, and ate them anyway.  In fact we made yummy caramel apples with them.

There was  a bear spotted in Haymarket this last week and one of the spottings was in Piedmont!  The bus stop was all crazy and you would have thought a mad man was on the loose!  Excitement for Haymarket!

Ashley has become such a Mama's girl and I love it.  She cuddles up and says, "Just girls.  Boys stink."  After her Little Gym super beasts gymnastics class, every friday we got to Panera and do lunch together.  We have so much fun!  It reminds me of when my mom and I would do special lunches out.  We still do!

This past week I taught preschool.  I taught Opposites and the 5 senses.  Hard concepts for 2 1/2 year olds.  It was still fun seeing the little munchkins interact.  All boys and just Ash.  In fact, she doesn't have even one girlfriend.  But she doesn't know the difference and she loves all her boyfriends. 

Ta ta for now!  Or TTFN (something my kids say as they take after Tigger on Pooh),

I love Panera at this time of year. Their soups are the best! Sweet little Ashley and all these rough and tumble boys. . .they'll still be knocking on her door when she's 16. Austin looks so dang cute playing ball. I can't wait until our boys are old enough.

How fun for Austin to do football-I need to do that this next year! I often think of Ashley in nursery as she sits so quietly and watches the 20 crazy boys. She's such a cutie. Fun stuff!
