Not a dull moment..

Well I thought we had seen just about all the exciting wildlife that we would around here until tonight. These little cuties were just across the street in our neighbors front yard. Two little baby raccoons. They were so cute. I was trying to get close for pics and Mike was worried the momma would coming running out of nowhere and attack me. We never saw the momma. The babies played a little and then just kinda wandered away and walked into the woods. How cute!




Me and my sis took the boys to Incredible Pizza today. The last playday before school starts tomorrow. I had four free pizza buffet tickets and four $10 game cards I won at an auction. Also a special was running that if you wore your superhero costume they would add $10 to your game card. So we took our batman outfit. I told the girl the boys just didn't want to put it on. We only had one costume but she gave both boys the $10!! Sweet!! So the boys got to play with a free $60 worth of game cards! We used just about all of it up too!!  B loved the motorcycle game. He must of played about 6 or 8 games straight and then raced D and won!

Aunt Jen got to be the gas pedal pusher since B's feet couldn't press the gas and drive at the same time.


The boys had a blast!!

Well.......another interesting thing happened today. NOTE TO SELF and all others out there that this might apply to!! Make sure to set the lock controls on your dish or direct tv!! B rented three movies today without us knowing!!!!!! yep!!!! We have been working on teaching the boys how to run the remote controls. So that they can turn on the tv and then turn to the couple of channels that their cartoons come on. Well Dish has recently added a new feature at the bottom of the guide to rent movies with the push of a button. Well considering the boys only know the guide, channel and select buttons....well he must of somehow pushed the key to rent and then tried to get out of the screen by pushing select! I came into the room after showering and noticed the tv wasn't on the cartoons anymore. He was now in the other room with D. When I pushed the guide to see what it was...not a kid friendly movie at all....it said "rented" next to it. HUH?? So I immediately went into the movie selector and realized he had rented 3 movies! So Mike quickly got on the phone to call and cancel them. Well, don't you know, PPV movies are non refundable! Of course not! But thankfully the guy did give us 3 free movie rentals to help out. Gee thanks....we already have netflix! But oh well, two of the movies might be worth watching and we get to pick three more. Needless to say we now have all movie rentals channels and video on demand channels locked with a password! Lesson learned, thanks to our super smart almost 5 yr old! ha...suprised he didn't find a Spongebob movie to rent!! LOL!!

Well tomorrow is the first day of school!! eekk!! I am very excited but nervous too! We will be up and outta here early with my tissues and camera ready!

Well toodles for tonight! First day of school post coming soon!
