Week 17 of 52 in 2018

Jackson:   It was a very hectic Thursday for me (lots of time in the car at multiple fields) but giving Jackson and opportunity to see his cousin, Michael, play one of his last games for Fallston was TOTALLY worth it. He was cheering Michael and the cougars on.

Connor:  I had volunteered to help with the book fair on Friday night and the boys had no choice but to hang out. They spent a good bit of time on their kindles but Connor was super happy to find his pals, Chase and Jackson Lee. Seeing his friendships grow puts a smile on my face too!

Week 16 of 52 in 2018

Jackson: Jackson's new lax bag arrived and he packed it up and was ready to go for his 1st lax game.  He was so happy to get a bag that would carry everything.  Having it hang on the stick had to have been heavy. 

Connor:  It was opening day for baseball and our #6 finally got his chance to play catcher. He was super excited for the opportunity and did a good job.  We are looking forward to a great year for our Giant.

Week 15 of 52 in 2018

Jackson: Neither of the boys ever want to go to stroke clinic.  We get it. It's cold outside, there's been snow on the ground and it's been raining BUT both of them have a huge smile on their face when it's done.

Connor:  On Tuesday's, Connor gets to be the supportive brother and join us at Meadowwood Park for Jackson's lacrosse practice.  He's not happy about having to attend especially when it's cold but once it's over, he's happy to help carry the boys' (Aidon too) lax equipment.  He gets a break on Thursday and I get to watch Connor practice as we are sharing days with the Vuolo's.

Week 14 of 52 in 2018

Jackson and Connor: We have reached the time of the year where we will be spending multiple nights a week at a field.  Thankfully, the sun is shining this week.

Week 13 of 52 in 2018

Jackson and Connor: It was a shortened school week and we took advantage of the day off and headed to the zoo.  It's not the same as when they were little but their observations and questions are so much better.  We still spend a lot of time observing the penguins and ALWAYS send pics of the flamingos to Michael.  This time, the boys were in the shot.
