Hollywood Brothers

Today is "hollywood day" at school for the boys. I'm not really sure what they wanted them to dress up as, so I interpreted it the way I wanted. The only pair of Hollywood brothers I could come up with (that I could make t-shirts to resemble) were Charlie Sheen and Emelio Estevez! Emelio is known for his role in the movie "The Mighty Ducks" so I fashioned a semi-replica jersey from the movie and ironed "Estevez" on the back of his shirt. Reed has no idea who he is, he just thinks he's wearing a hockey jersey! And, we all know Charlie Sheen's antics lately and his catch-phrase "winning", so Nolan think's he's helping Reed "win" the hockey game. It's too funny...for us anyhow!

Sunday funday

After a long afternoon of swimming at the Fieldstone pool, we had dinner at Nana and Poppa's house. And what better to end the evening than with ice cream!!

On the way home, the boys decided they had to pee so bad they were almost "going to pee themselves!" So, we stopped on the side of road and 75% of the car got out to relieve themselves.

G'day, Mate!

Last Friday I picked the boys up early from school (which they were totally excited about), we went to lunch, stopped by my office to work for a minute, then went to Brookhaven to meet up with a near and dear friend, Anita and her family. She was in town, briefly, from Austrailia and had time to make a quick stop in Atlanta to visit some old friends of hers...and us! Her baby, Romany, turned 1 on the 21st and is so dang cute!

We love visiting with our Aussie mates!

~Mommie, you can go~

Scene: Sitting at a red light this morning on the way to take the boys to school.
Nolan: Mommie, you can go.
Mommie: No, buddy, I have to wait for the light to change from red to green, then I can go.
Nolan and Reed together: No, when the gingerbread man, that means you go.
Mommie: (looking around confused, either looking for a real gingerbread man, a guy in a costume, or a guy with red hair, I finally realized that they think the "walk guy" on the crosswalk is a gingerbread man.)
It's the little things that make you smile :o)

"Cheeks"

On the way home from the pool today, Nolan informed me that he needed to go to the bathroom (#2, real bad). I told him that we were almost home, to hold it, and squeeze his cheeks. This was how he interpreted my directions...hahaha!

What were the twins up to this past weekend?

All 3 boys headed to Athens to pay a visit to Jammy and Grandy and tear A-town up! They saw Cars 2 (again) and then headed to Buffalo's to meet Reed's new girlfriend, Camille (a friend of Bob and Mika). Apparently, he was smitten!

This is the guy that paints his bald head for every UGA game...and he became a "fan" of Reed and Nolan's! They have no idea who he is, but they'll appreciate the signed photo he gave them when they get older.

Of course they got to see BOB!!

Then, they went to Memorial Park where there is a small playground, a lot of space to run and...

BEARS!!! There are also owls, eagles, alligators and other animals Todd sent, but this was such an impressive picture of a beautiful black bear.

Yummy yogurt treat!

The boys got to meet up with the Allen clan (Corrina and Mia) at their house where they played hide-and-go-seek and just ran around the yard...a fun past time for most small kids!

FISH caught a FISH!?!

Nolan looks like he's bringing home supper!

Thank you to Jammy and Grandy for entertaining the boys all weekend and I hope you are getting the rest you deserve!
