Like father?

May 28, 2008

This boy can eat! We grilled out on my day off last week. Lunch outside has kinda become a family tradition. Our house backs up to a copse of trees that is nice and breezy, very relaxing and, evidently, full of snakes. (More on that later!) I grilled some burgers and dogs. We were finishing up lunch and Grady had not eaten very much of his food, which is very unlike him. He noticed a burger still sitting on the plate for Rene that she had not eaten yet. After a little prompting on his part, we decided to give it to him and see what he could do with the thing. Result:

That boy can pack away a burger. He gave up after half, but what an effort! It was one of those moments every father lives for…our first hamburger. I was quite proud!

Tee-Ball Surprise

May 20, 2008

We just finished our T-ball season on Saturday. Garrett surprised us all by turning around and crushing the ball as a lefty the last couple of games. Who knew?  Notice the concentration and, of course, the tongue.
