Davin's First!

I can't believe my little baby turned one! Didn't I just have him the other day???? We had a Winnie the Pooh birthday for him only because my awesome friend Shauna and her sister Nicki could make a cute Pooh cake! If only I were that talented. I think they spent most the day on it. He loved eating cake and stuck his finger in the frosting as soon as it was put in front of him. He also had a great time opening presents. He loved pulling out the tissue paper and he is really enjoying his presents now. He will actually dig into the toy box.

Dason starts football!

Dason started another season with the EAGLES mighty might team. He is just finishing up his all week practices and is now going to 3 a week (thank goodness). He is doing very well this year. He is the team winner of King of the Board. This could have something to do with the fact that he is the biggest player on the team. He is so excited that he is finally the best at something. He was low on the totem pole for a very long time. He will be having games soon but we are pretty sure he won't be playing in them because he has to weigh 94 pounds with his equipment on and as of last practice he weighed 102. He is still working on it and he is eating VERY healthy right now. He hasn't had any sweets/soda/junk food for 3 weeks now.

Camping with the Turley Family!

24th of July Reunion Fun!

St. Johns Parade

As per tradition, we always have to hit the parade in St. Johns so Todd can catch up with all his friends. Usually Dason is satisified because he can get lots of candy. This year he got lots but he couldn't eat any because he is on his "football diet." He did get to be sprayed by the fire truck at the end and get totally drenched. Davin just wandered around eating whatever he could get his hands on.
