Our weekend

We had a busy weekend. Andrew participated in a basketball tourney in Balaton on Sat. We all took naps from the fun and exciting tourney and colds that Zachary and I have. We then ordered pizza, taco of course, and celebrated birthdays for Linda and Andrew. Andrew had learned how to decorate cakes a week earlier so that was their cake. It was so delicious! They all played wii while I sat back and caught up on magazines and of course the Wabasso Standard! Can't miss that! Even Grandpa Lloyd was caught "getting into" bowling. He was down on one knee and everything! I forgot to ask him no Sunday if he was a little sore.

Andrew did great at the tourney. The team placed 2ND. They lost one game against Milroy by 2 or 3 points. Bummer! During the 2ND game, the score was St Anne's up by 1 point with like 4 seconds to go and the other team had the ball. After a time out, Andrew was sent to the opponents basket to guard that player. They threw the ball to that player and Andrew blocked the shot and they both bobble the ball and St Anne's won the game by 1 point! Everyone was so excited!! Andrew was really pumped and proud. Tom Franta come up to Jeff and I and said how proud he was of Andrew and that he "hopes Andrew will remember that moment forever. He saved the game. They had set him up and knew he could do it." After the game, Andrew came up to Jeff and stated that he had fouled him because he had scratched him (the other player). Leave it to Andrew to think of that! Andrew is pretty cautious out there on the court so by the last game, Karl and Tom had him pretty pumped up! Tom told all the players that they all needed to have at least 1 foul! Andrew got to play the whole game and made 2 baskets and got 3 fouls. Everyone was wondering what he ate at lunch! I don't think he had a foul all year! That was the last games of the season. When we got home, Andrew ate 2 huge turkey and cheese sandwiches and napped also. He NEVER naps during the day!! Sunday we had Wabasso fun days and Basketball wrap up for St Anne's. This is were St Anne's plays Wabasso Public. It was fun to watch all the kids from both programs play together. Sunday evening was spent Jeff and I helping Andrew get his Science Fair Project and report together. I can't believe he is old enough for this. Getting ready for Jr High is what he keeps saying. He is very excited for Jr High.

Birthday Continued....

I posted to early. As I say, "never a dull moment." Jeff and I let the boys stay up later last night because they didn't have school today. So, after watching WALL-E and then Survivor we got the boys ready for bed and up the stairs. Jeff, Zach and I were up ahead with Andrew and Michael following. As I'm putting clean sheets on the bed (after finally getting them washed), Jeff is holding Zach as he fell asleep on me watching TV, we hear Andrew start wailing as he is walking up the stairs. Michael commes running in by me as I ask him the infamous question, "What did you do?" "Nothing, I only touched his shoulder like this (holds out 1 finger and pokes). I go in to check on Andrew with Jeff following me into the bathroom only to find Andrew leaning over the sink with blood gooshing from his nose and splattering all over the sink while crying uncontrollably! Wow! I'm thinking, "what the hell just happened - it's his birthday". Jeff gets the 2ND story from Michael and I get Andrew's story among the sobs. "He punched me in the nose!" I tell you....... It finally ended with both of them getting "punished (to be determined in the morning per Jeff) for not telling the truth about what happened, and exaggerating, pulling pranks on each other at 11pm at night and ordering them to stay away from each other!

So what did happen???? Andrew pulled Michael's leg back down the stairs, Michael turned to "bop" Andrew and accidentally popped him in the nose, they both stretch the truth??? Only God Knows For Sure!
