that is what this one does when i go to take his picture.

that suck-in -your-cheeks-look-away-quickly maneuver.

that should answer the question...

why isn't charlie on the blog more?

because of...

that!

mom, mom come quick!

i am thinking someone has broken into the car.

maybe a family of deer on the golf course.

from the amount of excitement in their voices,

i knew i should brace myself.

sam rushed out in his socks.

middle was amazed at the frost on the grass.

charlie scraped a message into the icy windshield.

that is about as close as these florida boys will get to frozen precipitation this year.

i didn't mind the excitement...

just wish i could have finished my cup of coffee before i spilled it.

not forgotten

DSC_0020
middle was anxious to get to church tonight.

mr. bruce always has a klondike bar for a birthday treat.

last year he didn't get one.

if mr. bruce had realized he had forgotten...

he probably would have given him two.

middle was all about the treat...

not so much about the birthday serenade.

he recovered quickly to blow out his trick candle again and again and demolish the much anticipated delicacy.

bag boy

i don't like fill in the blank.

his new game.

a way to be finished eating so he can play with his brothers.

things that he loves to eat...

i don't like them.

after refusing to eat his green beans at dinner.

he cleans up his plate.

walks to the counter and proceeds to eat them out of the bag.

yeah, i can tell he really hates them.
