Apparently we like feeding birds lately.
Justin found these huge pine cones on a walk with Owen & Drew yesterday.
So 2 things of peanut butter and lots of bird seed later...we have some lovely tree decor.

Soccer Legs
Monday - Justin game
Tuesday - Justin game/Owen practice
Wednesday - Justin game
Thursday - Owen practice
Friday - What? No soccer?
Saturday - Owen game
Owen to Justin: I saw your butt-head in your soccer game.
I thought Justin's soccer season was done, but...play-offs! They lost tonight so now it's officially over. I'm not happy they lost but I'm happy to not have another crazy soccer week like this one.

Owen, Bartholomew, and Sal
One of my favorite gifts for newborn Owen was the book of his same name (that I didn't know existed) from Justin's aunt Jeane Ann.
She continued the book tradition for Drew & Sally.
But for Drew we couldn't find a book whose main character had his same name. So he got one of Jeane Ann's favorites...Bartholomew and the Oobleck. We like the book and really like that we don't have a son named Bartholomew. Now if I could get a batch of oobleck to turn out! Shouldn't be that hard with 2 ingredients.
I extra love Sally's book...I had never read this one either. I love that the girl goes by Sal and I really love the illustrations (and pretty much all of Robert McCloskey's).
But back to Drew...does anyone know of any children's book that has a main character named Drew? Or even a supporting character? Nancy Drew doesn't count.

Picture of the Week
Goes to Justin!
Doesn't it give you the impression that Owen helped the Golden Sharks to their first victory?
He got the "best team player" acknowledgement at the end of the game...as in he let the rest of the team do the work :)
Had fun, though!
This week...
Justin was gone Mon-Fri doing Arabic interpreting at Fort Erwin in Barstow.
I stayed up too late.
Ate too much.
Went through old pictures and found this:
Do you know what this means???
That this little puffer could be what started Owen's little obsession (see here) and we had no idea!
I don't think we even knew this was a puffer at the time.
A life changing discovery.
Oh and Sally is now in nursery! Weird that Sally and Drew are in there together. Drew is so over nursery. He's been in there forever. Sally did awesome. Yay!

A Girl
Culture for the Week
Compare and Contrast
9/3
You would think we forced Owen to play soccer by these pictures.
But he asked out of the blue when it was time to play again.
And after we signed him up he asked almost daily
when his coach was going to call about the 1st practice.
1st practice came and this is what we got.
Then this morning he woke up saying how much fun soccer was.
Hmmm....
I'll just let him think he had fun and not show him these pictures.
Justin had a good soccer season w/his Marine DLI team.
His pictures above are from the final game.
They scored a goal at literally the last second.
