Back in business

What happens when your monitor breaks and you can't get on your computer for a week. You go crazy!! Our monitor went out and we waited for a new and finally that great UPS man dropped one off on our porch. A plus to have an almost totally blind husband is when he orders your new monitor, he goes BIG!!!!! He got it all hooked up and we are now back in business. (Thanks Johnson dad) No Thursday thought this week due to my down time just some family catch up. Our cheerleader graduated from kindergarten!! Mr. Football leaves 3rd grade today and Wild Man became a tank. (he has hovered around the 15-20% zone for wieght but at his 18 month he hit the 55% zone.) We are excited for summer and have some wild ideas for some summer fun! Stay posted for that. What kind of entertainment have we been enjoying you may be asking, well I will tell you: We went and saw Disney's Up and WE LOVED IT!! Totally a go see. The most exciting thing is what has been happening on our street. Monday, the ice cream man was making his rounds and either had a heart attack or a seizure and fell out of his van landing on his head. There he lay knocked out and blood running from his head. 2 fire trucks, 1 ambulance and 3 police cars later he left for the hospital unsure of who he was or what he was doing. Being smack dab in front of our house we had front row seats and it was exciting. On wednesday our next door nieghbor (the middle school age girl) decided to light her garage on fire and there was plenty of gasoline for the party. We again got to see the fire truck, the ambulance and 4 police cars. Luckily the fire only stayed in the garage and the house is okay. So to all kids out there DON'T PLAY WITH MATCHES!!!! It was a good lesson for my children. Wild Man LOVES the lights and sirens and he stood staring out the front window clapping and screaming and waving. He loved the show! Then on Wednesday we watched the sherrif's surround a house with rifles pointed at the front door, the door opens and some guy came out with his hand up. (Note: this thank goodness was not on my street it was in the neighborhood above mine) What excitement huh!?!?!? It has been pretty quiet since Wednesday, kind of boring!! HaHa. Just kidding. Our cheerleader and I went on a field trip to the zoo on Monday and we had a great time! No baseball games this week, to much rain and our cheerleader performs on Saturday and then we are done for the summer. I will try to post some photos soon of some of our fun.

  1. What an exciting time you guys are having! I hope the ice cream man was okay. That's too bad about your neighbors house, luckily it didn't make it to your house!! I can't believe she was playing around with matches. She should have known better. Glad to see you have your computer back!

  3. Ahh, the good old neighborhood -- miss it! Just glad the fire trucks weren't there for us this year! :) I love reading your blog - we are doing great in Indy; lots of rain too, more than 25 inches so far this year - yeah, it rains a lot! Kids are out of school and I'm working a little bit, which is a good thing most days. Miss ya!
