IHeartFaces ~ We ♥ Sports in Action & Pets!


Another awesome week over at IHeartFaces this week, where we are exploring the wonderful world of action shots during this week's theme of Sports in Action! And it's also another week of Anything Goes with Pets, which is always a crowd pleaser for sure.

Now The Boy has yet to participate in any "organized" sport so-to-speak. The extent of our sports have been of the front and backyard variety. He's a medalist in jumping, both indoor and outdoor. He's a master of the bike-with-training-wheels. He soars to new speeds on the Razor. And he can kick a ball from our yard to Kolby's old yard. Recently the love of baseball came along and we've taken to hitting both off the tee and from a pitch. All geared up and ready to go, we were deeply saddened to find Little League Baseball is nothing but a bunch of punks, changing the rules with a new age cut-off making us ineligible to play this year by a mere 38 days.

But never fret! We have Sports In Action of the football variety. Donned for safety in our Cars helmet, wearing our blue cape so you know we're for the winning team and keeping with the camo so you never see us coming, we are stealth with our left-handed cannon
And not to miss out when Anything Goes? I give you a Pet for an afternoon - I'm fairly certain the love for this one wasn't even great enough he got a name after he jumped on The Boy one good time!
There are a ton of other wonderful entries over at IHeartFaces so be sure to check them all out!

Hey Y'all!

Long time no blog and the masses (all three of you) are getting antsy from the comments of um when are you going to update again and I thought one blog was going to make it easier to post I keep hearing when I see you.

I hear you. I am listening. I had good intentions last week. And this weekend. And Sunday night. B-b-b-but our family spare time? Has been spent together! Because Netflix is our friend!

David & I have been wrapped up in the lives of these guys

And I won't hesitate to tell you how partial I am to Cool Breeze there on the left (ahem). Awesome show - where have you been all our TV watching nights?! Except much like the fate of Hector, one of the main characters we have come to love as we've watched these episodes, CBS has KILLED THE SHOW. This has led us to say things like Poor Hector and CBS You Suck. And now we are looking for yet another show to feed our Netflix addiction as we near the last of the current Unit episodes. Suggestions welcome. Although maybe you don't want to suggest as it just keeps me from blogging. Ahem.

Even The Boy has found a Netflix love

Bolt has earned a spot right up there with Cars as one of the Greatest Movies Ever Made in his mind. We've watched it upteen million times and The Boy deemed it okay to just keep Bolt Forever. Thankfully BigMama & Papa scored The Boy his own personal copy and Netflix will have their copy returned sometime in the next day or so depending on the speed of the post office, thus not having to wait forever.

We don't spend every waking moment watching television. We did build this super awesome spy tent on The Boy's bottom bunk Saturday

And then he thought it such a fabulous place to hang that he fell asleep there Saturday night and spent the night in his "tent"

And speaking of tents and such we are gearing up for a Camping Trip this week! Everyone is getting very excited for our vacation - I'm just hoping the heat isn't too unbearable, the rain stays far away, and the ants - oh those pesky stinkin ants - stay far, far away from us this year - wish us luck ~ and I'll be sure to take tons of photos & give you a full recap after. Now if we can just fast-forward through the rest of this work-week so we can actually get to our vacation . . .

Again many apologies to our few "fans" - only one more Unit DVD to go so we should be around more often now! That is, until we find another show to catch up on . . .

Happy Monday!
