Just in case you were wondering what Things 2 and 3 were doing during Thing 1's scrimmage....thought I would give you a peek:
#1. Put boundary marker on bubbie's head...

#2. Put boundary marker on own head..
Then declare it a cowboy hat.

#3. Play their own version of football...

#4. Chase each other around Daddy..

Thing 1 had his first scrimmage last week. He was so excited..

Thing 3 is really studying her bubbie in the crazy helment and mouth guard....

Look at that boy...

He's bringing down one of the big boys...

That's some good cake!!

My favorite part is the pinata! Birthday boy gets first whack..

Birthday boy's big brother dealt the final blow...

Cake time!
C. had asked if I would make his cake for his party. So, I did. I knew what was going to happen when D.'s birthday rolled around...
So, I did it again.
I was having the darnest time lighting those candles. It had been sweltering hot all morning without the slightest hint of a breeze, until I pulled out the matches. Then, we had breezes coming from every direction!! I mentioned in the last post about it being so hot the balloons were popping..you can see the gaps in the balloons in the picture!!

Look at that face would ya?

Wonder what he wished for?

Coolin' off with cake....can't beat it!

D. requested a cowboy party this year. So, we had us a rootin', tootin' wild west shootout, with WATER GUNS!!
D. was soooo excited when I told him I found cowboy pistols that were water guns!
They had so much fun running around and squirting each other. It was super hot that day, and the heat was causing all the balloons to pop. So, that just added to the atmosphere...it really sounded like a shootout!!

Yee Haw! It was a birthday weekend around these here parts...

My little cowboy turned 6!!

Fall sports is here for the Walsworths! Thing 1 and 2 decided to try something new this season.
Here's what Thing 1 is trying.
He is the one in white on the right side.

Now he's on the left...

Thing 2 is going to give karate a try.

HI-YA!!!

The boys wanted to bulid a tower all the way to the celing, soooooo....

It took a couple of attempts, but they finally got it....with Daddy's help of course!!

Blocks are way cool..
