Preschool field trip to Texas Roadhouse

The Preschool crew and a few more. Porter wanted to wear his cowboy hat to this. I told him that cowboys wear Levis. And looky here, Porter is wearing Levis! YEA!!!

They shaped dough and then they cooked it for them to eat.

Porter was punching in orders.

My buddy

They got to take a tour of the kitchen.

They gave each kid lunch (mac and cheese), bread and honey butter; silly bands; and a free meal to come back.

Basketball Camp

Porter and his Buddies, (Nash and Korbin) got to do Basketball camp for 3 days. He loved it.

After the camp was over they would always go and play on this at the rec center.

Max (still in his pajamas) playing on the rock wall.

Just another broken bowl that Porter accidentally dropped. I took a picture this to just remind me of how many things have broken lately. When Porter breaks things (on accident of course), he always says, "It's OK mom, It was an accident." The saddest one lately was the Christmas candy jar. Not that it broke necessarily, but because Porter was SO excited to get it out. I told him what it was for and that we could get some candy and put it in the jar. Well he took the jar, got his left over Halloween candy; put the candy in the jar; and then put the jar on the counter. A couple days later I hear a BIG Crash in the kitchen. I jumped out of bed to see what happened. He had woke up and went right for the candy in the morning. Well, he just slid it right off the counter and onto the ground. (Poor little jar and Poor little Porter). His candy jar was gone.


THIS...hmm this is my phone. WAS my phone...until the dog got to it. No phone calls for at least a week or more until I got a new phone. It also happened the weekend Barry was out of town with the scouts. So I had no phone at all. Moral of the story...DON'T GET DOGS!

Porter and Max

This is Max's favorite spot to be. He climes right up there and will play. Lately he takes the drum stick and smacks it against the bricks.

Porter got a sled for the snow. Well there is no snow right now and so this is what works best. He pulls Max around the house in it and Max just loves it!

Max's chariot.

I am surprised Max didn't fall out on this trip. Porter got Max laughing.

Porter making Max Laugh. Porter loves to make Max laugh. He also likes to tease his brother a lot too.

Porter made a hut. He made it two levels. The bottom level was for his "work stuff" and the top level was were he "slept and ate."

Max looks huge here. They love taking a bath together. The other day Porter thought Max should be a fish. He shoved Max's head down in the water so he could be a fish. Very creative, however, Max I believe would rather be an air breathing animal. After he came up he was choking on the water that was forced down his nose and mouth. I think he would be better at being a dog and not a fish for a while.
