SURFS UP...

Back to Dania Beach we went... I guess this is one of our favorites and pretty close to us... about 20 minutes away. Colby was very excited to go since Calvin bought him a boogie board and Rylee a kick board. Colby even got wax to go on his board! I was like... WAX!!?? thinking the wax would make it slick like car wax, but this wax makes the board sticky, so you don't slide off of it. Thank goodness the cashier told him, because we have NO clue when it comes to surfing!

Two little MONKEYS ....

Mindy has been bugging me to update, but we haven't done much this week/weekend. Especially since Calvin has been in TX visiting his Mom in the hospital. Get well SOON Wanda!! We went on a bike ride today and went to the park.... that's about the extent of our weekend. Here ya go ....

I got my baby back... if only for a little while....

Country Isles Elementary

Here are some pics of the kids' school. All the hallways are outside... I guess the best way to explain it would be saying it's a Motel and not a Hotel... the playground is full of white sand...nice bonus when they take off their shoes.

What the heck is a cafetorium?? I have never heard of that before.... thought that was pretty funny!

Kindergarten Nursery Rhyme Show ...

Oh BOY!! We need some creative ideas please. Colby has to dress up as Humpty Dumpty for a school program and do a song and dance... (yeah right!). Any ideas on how to make this costume would be greatly appreciated! The program is on October 31st. I'll be sure and take my video camera and post it for everyone!

Wipin' out WIPE OUT ...

Not sure what happened, but he wiped out pretty good on the wet blacktop road. Now we know why we have 'play clothes' and 'school clothes'. This is now a play shirt, even bleach won't get that black stuff out! I'm sure this will be the first of many 'wipe outs'! Just one little scrape under his chin, but he sure didn't want to go home.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGGIE!!!!

WoW!! Maggie is 12 years old today! I can't believe it! She has been such an awesome dog! Still going strong and healthy and not crabby yet. She's never bit or snapped at anyone (although the kids have deserved it a few times)....

We sang happy birthday to her and gave her a special treat ..."Frosty Paws"...if you've never bought them for your dog, you should try it! They LOVE it! It's an ice cream treat just for dogs :)

DON'T LET IT GET AWAY!!!

Not much going on w/ us this weekend. Calvin and the kids decided to go get some 'minners' as he calls them and go fishing. The kids are really good at casting and reeling in! :) Calvin caught 2 fish, but the kids wanted to reel it in. Colby is still a little freaked out about it, but will touch and play w/ the minnows.
