The ten TRILLION dollar bridge

A new bridge was built spanning a lake by our house. I can't remember the exact cost, but it was a lot (okay, probably not ten trillion...). Everytime we drive by Mike starts calculating how many people will need to cross the bridge and how much each cross is. It drives him crazy. Well, we decided to take a little hike and actually use the bridge. Now, we only need to cross it 999 more times for it to be worth the tax dollars we are paying for it!

The boys liked watching the ducks dive under water looking for fish.




I vowed never to put my boys in muscle shirts, but it was so cute I couldn't help it. Call me W.T.

Out of order, but here's Austin on the way there. Happy as a clam with a ring pop.



Bridge- ten trillion dollars. Austin enjoying the ducks- priceless

All day at the beach = tired boys

They had a great time today! Despite Mike not wanting to go (thinking it would be too cold), we

stayed at the beach all day. The water was a little chilly, but the day was perfect. Now they are clean and fed, and we are hoping they sleep like logs tonight...

Austin's first "official" haircut

Austin gets a lot of homeade haircuts because he is a wuss. I thought it was time for him to start looking non-homeless, so I took him to a kid's haircutting place. He got to watch a movie, and there were toys everywhere. Any kid's dream right? Not so much...


He was not happy being put in that chair
He did allow them to turn on Toy Story (his favorite), but he was nervous and kept saying "ow"

Fianlly, a little calmer

All over, but still there is a tear
I get a sucker now!

We are kissing T-ball goodbye!

Dear T-Ball,

As much fun as you were this season, you sure took up a lot of our time. We will miss you, but are happy not to be a slave to you! Tyler may still wear his peanut protector around the house; just in case any stray t-balls are flying around. Austin will miss getting suckers at the snack bar and looking at dogs.

Austin is probably laughing at a dog


Luckily, there was a park at the fields
