Goooooooooaaaaal!!!!!


It was a beautiful weekend here - mid 50's on Saturday (snow in the mountains.....winter the way winter was meant to be). We went to a local park and played soccer. Jake is a great little dribbler. He gets the ball and says "Chase Me!".....laughing hysterically the entire time he is running. Jake also decided the best way to play goalie is to pick up the net and move it whenever Ben comes close to getting the ball in (ya, Ben really appreciated that).

Looks like Jake will be a natural when it comes to taking the end of the year sports pictures. He said "Mommy, get your camera and take a picture of me with my soccer ball."

Batter Up!

Another nice day - Another Park - Another Sport. It was 60 degrees (according to my car) on Sunday. We headed down to a park with our baseball supplies. This is giving me Spring fever for sure!

Ben has GREAT batting form - no really, I'm not just saying that because he's my son -he's really good. OK, so maybe it is because he's my son, but he's a star in my eyes!

Avalanche Game

We took the boys to see the Avs play the Predators. They love, love, love going to hockey games (Erik's rec. hockey games included. Although, they aren't really able to differentiate). This was a running conversation during the game:
Boys: When is Daddy going to go out there and play?
Mommy: Daddy doesn't play this kind of hockey
Boys: Why?
Mommy: Because those players are professionals
Boys: Daddy is prossesnal
Mommy: No, those players are really good
Boys: But Daddy is REALLY good too.
Mommy: Your right, Daddy is really good
Boys: Then why isn't Daddy playing out there?
Mommy: Go ask your Dad


See the man sitting just to the left of Jake's head?.....Jake put his finger on the mans head and exclaimed "look Mommy, he doesn't have very many hair just like Papa!!!!!"
The people sitting behind us gave the boys a foam Avalanche claw. Do Avalanche have claws? hmmmm.

Multitasker

My little Ben Ben is such a busy boy. He was having a full on "war" with Aladdin and Mogely from the Jungle book - this, while riding his bike in the house with his new helmet on. Suddenly, he goes FLYING by me to the bathroom. When a boys gotta go, a boys gotta go. I think this picture is so stinkin' cute - multitasking Ben (it will stay on here until Erik tells me to "take the picture of Ben going potty OFF of the blog")
