Fireman's Competition

Marshall got the opportunity to participate in the Fireman's Competition at school on Friday. Of course, he thoroughly enjoyed it and laughed the entire time he was doing the obstacle course. The firemen did an excellent job assisting Marshall through the course, as did his teacher, Mrs. McClain. She even did the hammering part of the course for him, and did a good job!! Marshall's favorite part of the obstacle course was, by far,the spraying of the water hose. He had to pick the hose up and run to a marked off spot and spray three sections out of a board. He did awesome!!!! It was so much fun to watch him and all of his classmates participate in this event.

Busy at Work!!

Working hard on mom's research paper!

Fun Friday Night

Mark and I got an offer to go out on Friday night and spend some time together, which is rare around our house. Danielle and Justin offered to watch the kids so that we could get out and go eat dinner and see a movie. Mark and I went to eat at our favorite restaurant Shoguns in Little Rock. After our dinner, we went to a movie, thanks to Danielle and saw Last House on the Left. It was great to get out and enjoy some time not talking about therapy schedules or doctor's appointments. It was also great to know that our kids probably weren't missing us one bit the entire time we were gone, and looking at the pictures, it doesn't seem like they did. Justin and Marshall jammed out on the drums, while Jordan and Danielle laid in the living room floor to talk about boys. I think we all had a good night! Thanks again guys, it was great!!!

Marshall trying on glasses

Well, I took Marshall to try on glasses this week and he wasn't as cooperative as J was. He was okay with looking at them, but when we had to put them on, he didn't like that as much. The first thing he wanted to do was pull them off. So, I got a few pictures of him trying some on. They definitely make him look like an old kid! I guess he is though, since he is turning EIGHT this year.

New Glasses for J

Jordan got new glasses and this is video of her trying them on for the first time.

Down at the River

So, since Jordan and I were back and she was beginning to feel better, we decided to go and visit Neenaw and Pa because they haven't seen the kids in a while. Of course, Marshall was off at soon as he hit the floor and Neenaw grabbed Jordan as soon as we walked in the door. Neenaw thought that Marshall would like to play with some toys, but all he wanted to do was scoot all around the house. He is very easily entertained. He had lots of fun, he even took a drink to Pa while he rocked Jordan. He knows what his great grandpa likes.

Pa, Marshall, Neenaw and Jordan

Crazy Boys!!
