Kindergarten Reunion

-


So, these are Beech Buddies that Will misses so much.  Two weeks ago, I got a text message inviting Will to Gage's birthday party.  The other attendees were all in Will's Kingergarten class at Beech. The party started at Firehouse, moved to Crumbl Cookie, and ended at All Air Xtreme. 

When we arrived at Firehouse, Collin hurried over to Will, wrapped his arms around him and said "Will! I miss you!" Will hugged him back and told him that he missed him too. It was so sweet.  I learned that all four boys are at different schools this year.  Needless to say, they were very excited to see one another, as each is pretty lonely without the others.  







While Will was out partying, Finn, Sam and I went to Moss Wright Park to complete the boys weekend workout.  They were instructed to run 28 minutes - which they did.  Finn can run much faster than me and Sam.  





I just want to take a minute to brag on Sam Begley.  He has worked so hard this summer and during the start of the Cross County season.  He can now run the full two miles without stopping.  He also ran the full 28 minutes on our Saturday IWO without stopping.  It is hard for him, but he is learning that he can do hard things. 



As for the rest of the day, Michael and Will accompanied me to the Republican Women's Breakfast that morning. It was a rainy stormy day, so we spent a quiet night at home and made tacos.

Ghouls at Grassmere

Yesterday we took the boys to Ghouls at Grassmere.  Day started out pretty traumatic for Sam.  He wanted to go out and play.  He started to notice that there were several little worms on the porch.  He was terrified that the worms were going to get him so he sat in the porch swing with me for almost an hour.  Finn spent his time finding worms and then stepping on them.  Michael doesn't like for Finn to kill worms because they aren't hurting anything.  I reminded Finn of this fact and told him not to kill any more worms.  After a few minutes I start to hear more crunching.  I decide to take a different approach.  I told Finn, "Finn - the momma worm is going to be so sad because you killed the baby."  He looks at me and said, "don't worry mom - I'm gonna kill the momma too."  So much for the guilt trip. After a nap, it was time to start getting ready for the Zoo.  We started with the tights.  I bought Finn little girl...

The Fourth of July

Well the Begley clan had a pretty big Fourth of July celebration. Finn and I started the day by making a quick run to Wal-Mart to pick up some oatmeal. Then we got ready for our day with with Emily, Zac, Coop, Hank, Nana and Papa. We all met over at Em's house for a little playing, a little swimming and a lot of eating. When we first got there we all sat upstairs and watched the boys play in Cooper's playroom. Finn was absolutely amazed at all the toys. Then we decided to go to the pool. After getting the boy lathered up, we all loaded in the back of Zac's truck like the Clampetts and headed to the pool. With respect to those who would rather not be seen in a bathing suit on the blog, I have omitted the swimming pictures. We didn't get to swim too terribly long because it started looking like it was going to storm so we were only out for an hour. Once we got back home we had dinner. Greg made the best ribs I have ever put in my mouth. To end the evening Finn an...

High Ankle Sprain

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.
