Heart

Joey was raising money for the American Heart Association, he was in a jump rope a-thon. He called his grandparents and got money from a few friends. He ended up with $92. I thought this was a nice amount. I never ever would have imagined that it was the most for a kid to raise at Sherwood Elementary school. Tomorrow Channel 3 news will come to his school to interview Mrs. Patterson and she will present Joey with a special award. He is super excited.

The funny part is when he called his Grandpa Turner, he ask Joey how much money he should send. Joey told him that he should send $3000. So imagine, how much time he would have gotten on tv with a donation like that.

This house has been sick

For the last 2-3 weeks someone in this house has been sick. It started with Joey got him on his antibiotic, then I got it and finally Luke.

I think we are all on the mend. Hopefully this week we can do some fun stuff instead of just laying around the house feeling bad.

Still one of my favoritesf

This is still one of my favorite pictures of Luke. He never cried at all. He seemed to enjoy himself the whole day. I think he was 8 weeks old in this picture.

Mardi Gras

Yesterday was the Pensacola Mardi Gras parade. It was like always a very exciting special day for the whole family. We were lucky enough to have my friend Mary and her daughter Sophia and Bruce there to watch with us. The boys had a ton of fun.

The boys found a good place to watch.

Sometimes you need a break from a parade to run and play.

Luke kissing on Sophia.

Even the trees got some beads.

The whole family, Luke refuses to wear beads.

No Snow on the snow day

That is right we had not one single flake at our house. There are 2 disappointed boys at my house.

No School tomorrow

Tomorrow is officially cancelled for the threat of snow. We might get 1-3 inches of snow at our house tomorrow, so they cancelled school. I will be amazed if I see the white stuff. Joey is hopeful that he can make a snowman.

Buzz Lightyear

Luke has fallen in love with Buzz Lightyear. He plays with Buzz Lightyear all day long. In the last few days he has decided we should call him Buzz.

This is the Buzz Lightyear shirt he suckered me into buying him.

Cuddling with his Buzz

Weekend

In addition to going to the game we spent the night in Daphne and then went to the USS Alabama and then to the Explorium to see the Dinosaurs.

The men in front of the USS Alabama.

This is the sub that is there. It was really cool.

Luke was all about shooting the bad guys.

The men with a T-rex

The boys thought this was super funny. Especially Joey, he made the fart noise a lot.

The two science freaks.

Luke loved this triceratops.

The boys and myself with the T-Rex

Senior Bowl

We headed to the Senior Bowl on Saturday. It was a pretty neat thing to experience. Of course, it was cold and windy. We only stayed till half time, but it was worth it. We will have to go back another time.

They were announcing the teams.

#78 is our friend Mike Johnson

Trying to keep warm.

Luke watched very little of the game, he socialized, played and ate.
