Another Goshorn Athlete

The time has come...it is now Brooke's turn to become a Goshorn Athlete. She is as big as some 1st Graders so it is long overdue - had to wait on the dumb "age requirements."


















Here she is at her 1st practice for soccer.

She gets to play with a lot of her friends like Maureen

and Caroline.

This is going to be fun!

More Birthday Fun

Shout Out to our favorite 4 Year Old Boy - Cade Austin! We had a great time celebrating his birthday at a "Cade's Favorite Things" Party last week - that included cake, friends, sports and Power Rangers. He had it all covered!

Family Fun

A few weeks ago we celebrated cousin Graham's birthday by decorating pottery at a cute shop in Madeira. The kids had a ball and love their items. We had a great day celebrating with one of our favorite boys.














Hard at work.

Happy Cousins and Uncle Skip

Our Little Lover

Remember this post? He is at it again...

I saw Harlie's Mom today. I guess Will informed Harlie last week that he was going to marry her.
And she also confessed to her mom that Will tells her she is pretty - every day.

When asked this evening, Will said "Yeah. I told her she is pretty. She is!"
When asked about the proposal?
Biggest grin ever, with a little red cheeks and a sharp "I did not say that!"

Love my lover!

On To Something Else...

Basketball is not quite over and we are now into Baseball - one of my personal favorites. I used to pace and get so nervous for Jon and Jayson's games...I am now doing that for my own boys.

Here is one of my boys














Here is part of the team lined up for the Opening Day Parade - rainy and chilly as usual.

First game - Jack had a stand up triple and Will was up next and hit a great ball to the outfield. On a wing and a prayer the kid caught it - and Jack forgot to tag up before heading for home. So the umpire - Dad - had to call both Goshorn boys out. Not happy.

Will got on base the next time he was up and as he rounded third, heading for home, stiff armed the third baseman - guess he forgot baseball is not a contact sport. We had to have a talk about that.

I have a feeling this is going to be a great baseball season. GO REDS!

I Think What The Situation Needs....

Is Some Imagination!

We have been listening to the Imagination Movers CDs for years in our car - Andy and I actually like them too! (and Andy has the hots for their friend Nina on the show).

Angela found Groupon Deals to get tix to the show last week in Cincy and I decided to be "Fun Mom" and take all the kids with the Markarians. I surprised them after school and told them we were on our way - they were so shocked!

All the kids had a blast. Ang and I felt old. Oh well...fun was had by all!

And....I can't post pics cause I erased them already since I already printed. But I assure you - the pics of the kids dancing in the aisle is hilarious!

Classic

Tonight, Will picked a book from Andy's bookshelf for bed - some thick book about the history of Ulysses S. Grant. We asked Will to pronounce his name...and he got it right!

Then Jack said - "Hmmm....I thought his name was 'Useless.'"

Classic.
