Update: St. Jude’s Trike-A-Thon

Parker and Carson are both taking part in their preschool’s trike-a-thon for St. Jude.  If you would like to sponsor them just click the links below.  It’s a one time donation, not a per lap deal.  So don’t worry about it being multiplied.  Thanks in advance to all who help out.  St. Jude thanks you!

[The Trike-a-Thon is over, thanks to all who gave]

UPDATE:

Parker and Carson both raised $125.00. That’s each of them, so $250.00 total!!  Not bad!  Thanks to all who gave!

Pumpkin Patch

Kayce and I took a day off last week to go with Parker on his preschool class field trip to the pumpkin patch.  This is always one of my favorite times of the year, we all have fun and I get some great pictures.  Here are some of the best of the 450 that I took.  I shot a ton of closeups of the different gourds they had and they turned out really well.  I won’t put those up here becuase I think I can sell them to a stock photo site I’m on.  Thanks.

Pre-“School Days”…

Well, the boys have been in preschool all week.  This is the first time either of them have been in a regular daycare (even though they don’t like to call it daycare anymore).  It’s always been either Mommy or Nina watching them, so this is a big change for them.  Parker is doing great.  He has a real shy side that comes out in public.  Today for instance, is his class’ turn to swim.  We got to school and I saw everyone else already had their swimsuits on, so I asked him if he wanted to change…  Perfectly reasonable to me.  He looked scowled at me, and in his most hateful/offended/embarrassed/lips- pursed voice said, “No, I’m not going to”. Woah!  Sorry, I brought it up.  Well, maybe its just being 4, who knows.  Carson, has been crying every morning when I drop him off, but by the time I take Parker to his room, he is fine.  We had a note come home with the boys with two pieces of construction paper, asking for us to make a picture collage for the boys.  Well, we don’t have any pictures printed out, and I didn’t want to have to run to Walgreen’s to pick them up, then cut them out, and glue them on the paper… So, being me, I went alittle overboard and used a puzzle piece vector I had made a year or so ago to create the collages below.  Enjoy.
