Nothing
I really don’t have much to say, but I thought it was time for an update. Ummmmm…. The softball team is 9-0. Most of the games have been shutouts/blowouts, but we had a couple of close calls. In both we pulled in out in the bottom of the last (7th once, 8th once) inning. It’s […]
Signature Moves
Telephone call to my parents in NY today: Jake: (enthusiastic) Hello!!! Me: Hi Buddy! Jake: Hi Say-wah! Me: What are you doing? Jake: Oh…. just practicing my Signature Moves. He’s not quite right. In other news… I’m about to embark on the the first full week of students in 2005. I’m just completely unmotivated this […]
Home Sweet Home
We are in NY. We travelled home last night and got here around 2 am. It was one of the longer seeming trips we’ve taken. Partly because it was rainy most of the way and we left at 3:30 pm and Lucy was restless for the whole trip. We are in Buffalo, right now, hanging […]
Flowers
Jake and my mom are gone. But, they left behind some beautiful landscaping (including this flower box in our front “yard”)… Back to a nice quiet life — for two weeks, and then school starts again. 13 days, to be exact. Not that I’m counting.
Cavalry Has Arrived
My Mom got here last night to get Jake. She’s staying until Monday morning, and at that time, will pack up the Boy Wonder and head back to NY and our life will resume as normal…
Like Riding a Bike
We bought Jake a bike (with money that my mom gave me) and after much frustration and anger, he is now able to ride a “two-wheeler”. [the evidence] In other news, we traveled to Raleigh last night to see the infamous SarahPowers. We had a delightful meal at “Buffalo Brothers Pizza and Wing Company” — […]
Bubba
Day one is complete. Yesterday we: Went grocery shopping for kid compliant food Went swimming (twice) Went to Toys ‘R Us for a stupid Teen Titans toy Went to Arigato (Japanese Steakhouse) with Derek’s parents. And we got these Bubba Teeth.
Boy Wonder
We’re back from NY. We brought Jake (the self-proclaimed “Boy Wonder”) with us. This is a picture of him while we were in NY. We saw Spiderman 2 (great movie, by the way), and he was all about some Spidey for the rest of the trip. He wore this costume approximately 60% of the time […]
Batavia, NY and Jake Paine
