Things that make me happy (and sad)...

Luke decided yesterday that he was going to throw a "basketball game".

He wanted to have a "10 on 10" game and got right to work on his fabulous invitations.

He totally got this idea from pinterest...

After informing him that he doesn't know 20 people

he decided on a "3 on 3" game.

After doing 5 handwritten invitations, he refused to include 

the day and the time-his little paw was way too tired.

We delivered them all yesterday and had us some serious basketball action 

this afternoon in the backyard.

It was a success, especially at half-time when I did a dance

 and then served them Pace popsicles 

(do not even try them! the red ones are tiger's blood! so good!).

I have to capture a picture of Maddie more often now.

We are on a countdown to out of nest.

It makes me laugh that she will never be normal in a picture.

Actually, I guess this is her normal...

It makes me sad that I only have a few more weeks of her 

sitting on the couch pretending to do homework, 

while all the while

tweeting,

facebooking,

online shopping,

texting...

Thanks for the beautiful pics Maddie.

You only have yourself to blame.
