kite flying

So at school last week Brandon made a kite. He kept running around the house trying to make it fly....So we bought a kite at the dollar store and this is Brandon and Daddy having fun.


Can you tell he likes "Cars"? Really loves "Tow Mater"...grin

Brandon and Kaitlyn playing

Brandon's friend Kaitlyn came over Wednesday to play with him. She is almost a year older than Brandon but they get along great together. Brandon and "En" playing. He can't say Kaitlyn so he calls her "En" I think it's supposed to be "Lyn" but doesn't pronounce the "L"
Brandon's favorite color is pink because it's Kaitlyns favorite color. Here they are playing with the Lincoln Logs that Brandon got for Christmas from Santa. They both love to pose for the camera it just cracks me up.

ta da.... Here is Brandon's house

Family visiting

Rich's sister, Donna and her husband Joe came to visit us last Nov (I'm still working on my scrap book) so I thought I would post their visit on my blog. Brandon had a blast playing with his Aunt Donna. Here we are at the Indian Museum. Afterwards we went to the Air and Space Museum where they had the American History items on display (the American History Museum is closed until sometime this summer while they renovate the building, so while it's closed they moved some of the more popular items to the air and space museum).

Ice Skating

On Saturday Brandon had his first skating lesson. He loved it! Here is a couple of pictures of his lesson. The teacher is explaining to the kids how to get up when they fall down.

One foot up, put the hands down and stand up.

He's up and has a yellow square the teacher asked him to get.

Here he is at the end, I think we have a hockey player in our family.

Brandons Art

Today I decided to post Brandon's pictures. These are all the pictures that he has made at home, the library, church or at school. Here he has a tree, canoe, a tepee with "moke" he couldn't say smoke and I couldn't figure out what he was saying until my friend Elise said "smoke". lol
I love "Brandon's love bug" and there is a picture
of Brandon on the rocket ship. How cute is that. The yellow one under Pres Washington is a robot with a dog and the one with a house is his family. I just think he is so talented.

horse back riding.

Okay, so I'm still working on my scrap book (I'm on Nov) and I came across these and decided to post them. Last Nov we were invited to Secret Passage Ranch in VA. We had a wonderful time. I don't have any pictures of Rich because once he got on the horse we didn't see him again until it was time to eat, lol. This is Brandon and I in the buggy. I have an extra blanket wrapped around Brandon because it is so cold. BRRRRR



They finally convinced me to get on a horse with Brandon so here we are. Brandon loves horses by the way. He is not afraid to try anything new. He may be a little skeptical at first but then he dives right in.



We went back about a month later with my cousins. Once we go there we had a blast. They set off a cannon that had been used in the Civil War. We rode horses (Brandon was in the buggy with the owners) and Rich was....well I don't know where Rich was because once he got on the horse I didn't see him again until it was dinner time. lol

Normie

I'm trying to decided what to post about today....Saturday I was shocked when I saw that 22 people had checked out my blog. I guess because I talked about the White House. Wow! I have dots all over the map.

I could talk about parking at a local hospital grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr it took me an hour to find a place to park my car. All I had to do was get my blood drawn (twice) and get a shot in my behind....grrrrrrrrrr

I could talk about our new car. Our little blue car was costing us too much money so we bought a new car. Brandon calls this one "Daddys black car".

I could talk about my cat. His name is Norman (Norman Bates from the movie Psycho). Here are a couple of pictures of him doing what he does best....nothing!
