5-31-08 Misc Pics...

Here are just a few pictures from the last month that I really like. The video is of Ronan saying "tickle." Every time we tickle him we say "tickle, tickle, tickle" and he started copying us...

5-25-08 Pool Time...

We took the kids the pool the other day. Here are a few photos...

5-19-08 Knee Surgery...

On 5-19-08 I had surgery on my left knee. It was originally thought that I tore my meniscus, but it turned out to be a ligament tear, and knee cap and cartilage damage. I should be back to full health and fitness in 4-6 weeks. It's still sore, but I'm walking on it fine.

5-17-08 Swimming At The Lake...

Regan had a classmate who had a birthday party at the local lake. Here are a few pics of the boys swimming...

5-16-08 Bowling...

We made a deal with Regan to help him continue his good behavior at school. If he was good at school from Monday thru Friday, he would get a reward. For that weeks reward, we went bowling...

5-11-08 Mother's Day...

We love our Mom so much. Here are a few pictures from Mother's Day. Sarah asked me to make cupcakes, so enjoy the photos.

5-6-08 We Got Sod...

Roughly two weeks after we leveled out backyard we decided to complete the transformation and lay down sod. The pictures tell the story and so you can see we rented a tiller and loosened all the dirt. After tilling, we raked up all the weeds and rocks before laying the final product.

As most of you know, Georgia has been under water restrictions for over a year now. We are only allowed to water during specific times and on specific days of the week. They also permit a 30 day window for new grass to be watered every day. Luckily we have also received a lot of rain. It's looking pretty good and now the boys aren't tracking mud/dirt on the carpet.

4-30-08 Bath Time...

Here are just a few cute pics we took when they boys were taking a batch.

4-28-08 Rhys Discovers Fire Ants...

Rhys is a curious boy, as most are, but his curiousity is the same that killed the cat. Back on April 28th he discovered a fire ant hill and desided to step on the massive mound. It was a good thing he was wearing jeans and shoes because he was covered in seconds with well over one hundred ants biting his pants. When he tried to wipe them off with his hands he was bit. He had roughly 20+ bites on his arms alone. I had to pull his pants, shoes, and socks off him in the yard. In that short time I was bit 10-15 times. He has now learned his leason and keeps his distance, but he still wants to see each ant hill.

4-22-08 Zoo Trip

Sorry this has been soooo long in the making. To be honest, I've been lazy. Here are several updates to bring you up to speed....mainly just pics with a few explanations.

Back on April 22nd we took the boys to the zoo on a day Regan had off from school. These are a few pictures we took.
