Goodbye 2010

As I sit here just hours away from the begining of a new year I can only wonder what is in store for the Wothers Family.

The boys have grown so much lately. Sometimes I just want to cuddle them and hold them forever. They are doing wonderful in school. They are even letting their teachers separate them for small parts of their day. Anyone who knows them knows that this is a BIG step for Joshua and Jared. Christmas was amazing. Watching them open presents and get so excited each and every time we saw Santa (another big step for them) was one of the best feelings out there.

Happy New Year from the Wothers Family

School

Summer has come to an end and School has started. Today marks the first day of fall and I can say if you look outside our window it sure does look like fall at our house. The leaves are EVERYWHERE. We can now play outside again without sweating and we love it.
The boys went back to school this week. They seemed to warm up nicely to their new teachers, classroom and even some new friends. They are going 2 days a week this year. I now have 6 hours kid free every week. What did I do with myself this past week, I tagged and tagged and tagged some more. My MOM's clothing sale is coming up soon and I swear that I will be done tagging and things will be separated in time for pre-sales the week of.

August

August is Birthday month for me. This year was a special year as I entered into my 30's. Dave planned a party with the help of his family and mine. I knew about a party but that was all. The details were a surprise. The boys had Sports Camp on Friday (my birthday) so Dave and I took them. While there I received texted messages from my sister Shelby telling me where she and my other sister Courtney were along their journey from NY to PA to help me celebrate my birthday. After camp we came home only to see that my Dad's truck was in my driveway not my sisters car. Dave said surprise, my dad was suppose to be a a training for the State but everyone LIED to me. It was a good lie and I loved having my Dad here for my special day and also for my party. We had a party on Saturday with my family and some of my closest friends. Thank you all for coming out to help me celebrate entering my 30's.

Joshua and Jared could not wait to help Mommy blow out the candles on her cake. Of course Grammy could not just buy a 3 and a 0. No she put 30 candles on my cake. Thanks Mom.





4 days and counting until we return to NY, this time for a wedding and a 1st Birthday party.

July

The Wothers family has not gone anywhere for vacation but we sure have been busy. Aunt Shelby graduated the end of June so we went to spend her special day with her. Then we went back up to be with her for her party. The boys are pretty good on long car rides as long as we have their favorite movies on hand.

1st Trip to the Beach

Dave finally had a day off. We decided to take a day trip to the beach. Now let me set the stage for you. The boys got a sandbox for their birthday. They were so excited, they got toys and buckets, sifters and shovels. Everything needed to play in a sandbox. This is how they play in their sandbox everyday, on the outside while sitting on a blanket.

I knew that the boys would probably sit on a blanket in order to play in the sand and that was ok with me. What I did not expect was the pure hatered for sand. They would walk from the blanket to the water with no problems but sitting in their chairs with sand on their feet was totally not ok with them. Jared spent most of the day sitting in his chair or on the blanket with his feet in the air. He was happy but did not like the sand.

Joshua was a little more daring. He did play in the sand (while sitting on a blanket) and was not so concerned about the sand being on his feet.All in all I think we had an ok day. Not the best but it sure could have gone worse.

They were much happier on the way home.

We will try it again.
