Yep, he should be hiding his face!

What a dumb ass! Carmello was arrested yesterday morning for DUI on our interstate here! You know that he has plenty of friends and money to take care of transportation issues. Poor decisions like this make me want to put up all of the #15 stuff we have. I've already had to retire the Michael Vick jersey and didn't want to have to do that again. Bummer, it's just sad for the boys.

The Nuggets just made it to the playoffs last night also. We are excited but I don't want to have to hear about this over and over again. I'm hoping it'll probably just blow over since it's his first offense.

The funny stuff about it is that his fiancee refused to come and pick him up from the station so the police officers kindly gave him a ride home and parked his car in the police parking lot for him. Now they are being investigated for going above and beyond the normal procedures for this type of incident. If you ask me, I'm loving his fiancee right now!

Funny things

Just a couple of little funny things for you guys:

“Charlie” is still a huge hit at our house. If you haven’t checked out the youtube video for “Charlie bites finger”, you need to. The boys are constantly mimicking this and they try to use the accent to do it. Too funny! I have to admit I fell into it this weekend also. I wanted to make Aidan laugh during his soccer game. He was exhausted and there weren’t any extra players to give him a break. At half time, I went over to him and told him that there was a “Charlie” on the opposing team; he better watch out for him. Of course I had to use the accent for him to get it. Tristan happens to have a Charlie on his team also so this thing just keeps going and going. I feel sorry for anyone with that name right now.

A couple of nights ago I heard Aidan in the bathroom weighing himself on the scale. When he came out I asked him what he was doing. He told me he was “heavying himself”. I asked again, “What were you doing?” He then says he was “lightening himself”. He couldn’t think of the word “weighing” for the life of him. I never corrected him either.

This weekend’s soccer recap – Aidan won his first game of the season. It helps a lot that Tristan played for his team as a guest. But they both scored a goal which was the highlight! Tristan lost his game, 1st loss of the season for him. He did score the only points for his team though. Not enough of a highlight though, he hates to lose.

Our schedules

Haven't had much to blog about this week. We are getting accustomed to the soccer season and all that comes with it. Here's a sample of what our week consists of:

Monday's - Off, woohoo!!!!!

Tuesday's - Aidan's practice from 4:30 - 6 p.m. (Tristan joins in also)

Wednesday's - Soccer clinic for both of them from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m.

Thursday's - Aidan's practice 4:30-6, Tristan's practice 5-6:30 p.m.

Friday's - Aidan's tutoring 4:30-5:30 p.m. Bible study at 6:30 p.m.

Saturday's - Soccer games at various times, church at 6 p.m.

Sunday's - Pride Soccer Academy for the next 5 weeks, 3 - 4:30 p.m.

Crazy huh? It's a bit much I know, Josh thinks that I've over committed myself. Really though, Wednesday's are optional, I've paid for one month and if we are too tired or they don't enjoy it we can quit after April. Sunday's activity will end in 5 weeks and it's an awesome opportunity for them to possibly get chosen for the "Academy Team". The top 12 players from each age group are chosen to play on the team for a tournament. Exciting!

Anyway, that's what's up with us!

NKOTB

Oh my gosh! Can you believe that they are reuniting, making new music, and going on tour? I was such a huge fan in middle school. While my best friends loved Bon Jovi, I loved New Kids on the Block. I had their t-shirt, jewelry, music, videos, and my room was plastered with pictures of them. My favorites were the guys in the pic on the far right, Jordan and Danny. I think I remember Shelly liked Jonathan, Jordan's brother.

Here's proof:

And here's a pic of the shirt (and some attitude):

I will go ahead and admit that once their new music comes out, I will download it to my mp3 player!

Teenagers

The boys have been exposed to YouTube. I can't believe it! We have a 9th grader watching them this week for their last couple days of Spring Break. I guess she showed them it yesterday and they are hooked. It's all they want to look at on the computer. It even beat out a game I had downloaded.

I have to admit that there is some funny stuff on there though. They are pretty much checking out funny kids and sports stuff. (I made sure of this!) There's one video that I had to watch with them and continued to hear Aidan mimic all night long. If you look - it's about a little boy and his brother Charlie. Charlie bites his finger. If you search for "Charlie bites finger" it will come up. They think it's hilarious!

I was a you tube virgin myself until yesterday. I thought that it might be something that I could get addicted to and God knows I have plenty of things that I'm addicted to and I don't need another.

Beckham fever

Wow, I haven't had a crush in a while but I find myself smiling anytime I see a picture of him. I didn't jump on the Beckham bandwagon when he came to Major League Soccer last year; although we did go to the game in Denver to see him, which he unfortunately didn't attend. Anyway, I think I'm on it now!

I love his smile! It seem so warm and genuine. Posh is one lucky woman!



Tristan is wearing his cleats this season also! My friend Shannon, another mom from the team, is calling him Beckham Jr. Too funny!

I've got a collage of him at work now too. This is bad!
