Flag Football

The other day the kids were out back playing. I was doing dishes in the kitchen, watching them out the window, and was continually going outside to explain to the boys that Alleeda does NOT like to be tackled. I kept hearing the same answer over and over..."but mom that is how your supposed to play football"...that is when I remembered the bag of Flag Football equiptment in the garage, from our days in YM and YW with church, as soon as Kevin got home from work and dinner was over, we tought them how we are going to be playing football at our house when Alleeda wants to play. They had so much fun. It ended up being a game of who can get the most flags off of anyone...ball or no ball. We had a lot of fun...simple pleasures! If you play football with our family a quick warning...Matthew still LOVES to tackle...ball or no ball.

Still unpacking

I should be unpacking more boxes, so I can get the car in the garage...or finishing unpacking my room, as there are half opened boxes of clothes everywhere, but since Kevin hooked up the computer this morning, I have been sitting here for over an hour, checking out all that I have missed. As I was blog surfing I realized, while looking at my sisters blog, that it has been 4 weeks since I last wrote. Man where does the time go? The kids are growing so fast, Alleeda is 4, Matthew just grew a few more inches, Daniel is loving school and Jonathan was 19lbs 9 oz at his 4 month check up (Such a BIG boy). Kevin started his own company two weeks ago, and I am still trying to unpack (ha, ha) the never ending job...with 4 small kids and life happening. It is SO good to be back home. It is so nice to have family so close! So much to talk about and lots of pictures! So I will make a point to sit down tommorow and put in a new post...until then goodnight!
