Fantasy Football Draft 2011

We hosted Fantasy Football Draft this year and since it was crazy hot outside we decided to do it at night so the kiddos weren't out in the heat. Here are a few pics...

Bug was confused about why Dad was using her easel. She got it back once we got the projector working :)

Playing baseball in the dining room! I knew there was a reason we don't have a dining room table!

We need a bigger toy room!

Tiny Dancers

Bug started ballet over the summer and really enjoyed it! Last week was the first week of the non-summer schedule and I was a bit concerned about what we signed up for. The class was much more structured and not so cutesy fun. This week however was a hit!! One of Bug's friends, Adalyn, is in the class as well so it is to fun to watch the girls learn ballet together. To say the least, 30min of non-stop entertainment once a week!

I put together a little montage of moments from today's class. Enjoy!

Chuck O. Cheese's

Yep, we know, it's Chuck E. Cheese but for some unknown reason our Ladybug calls it Chuck O. Cheese. We finally took Bug for her first Chuck E. Cheese adventure.

I must say that PBS has hit their target market. We usually have PBS on in the background to catch a few of Bugs favorite shows as we get moving in the morning and the service announcement "This program is brought to you by proud sponsors of the PBS network ... insert Chuck E. Cheese here". This is how Bug found out about Chuck E. Cheese. Thanks WordWorld, Dinosaur Train and Barney!

When we asked Ladybug if she wanted to got to Chuck E. Cheese she asked if Grandpa Frank could come too.
Here we go!!

Starting to figure this out

Our picky eater likes Chuck O. Cheese pizza

Bug so excited she gets all the tickets!! Grandpa Frank trying to keep up with all of Bugs tickets!

PBS must let them use Clifford and Barney

Anybody have any other camera words other than "Cheese", ours has taken a turn for the worst...

A modern spin on the old ride

This was a lot of work for 2 tickets!

After Grandpa Frank and I sat and counted all our tickets we were shown the "Ticket Muncher", times have changed.

Headed home with our slinky and stickers

Like a Duck to Water

We went to visit Aunt Leslie today and Ladybug had the best time!! Aunt Leslie invited us over to see the ducks in her neighborhood pond and not just a few ducks but tons of ducks!!! I have never seen so many little ones!! They were everywhere! Bug had a blast feeding the ducks! Then we spent a good bit at the splash pad Aunt Leslie has right near her house! Our Ladybug made herself right at home!
Taking a tour of the garden

Here they are!


Too Cute!

We saw turtles and catfish too!!


Bug was even brave enough to feed the Mama and Daddy Ducks!


They were hiding in the bushes!

Another family!

Water time!


Her pants got to heavy so we decided to be white trash and run around in the diaper

It's Hot!!


Bug stole Aunt Leslie's hat

Aunt Leslie wanted to play too

Back to the ducks!


Thank You Aunt Leslie for a wonderful day!
