Let's Play Catch-up!

We have been mighty busy around here the last few days. Let me update you.

Construction:
The footers are finished. We had a stream of deliveries on Thursday starting with 2 truck loads of cement block and ending with a load of concrete mix and a pile of sand. I thought the foundation guys might be here on Friday, but I was incorrect in that assumption... I think they might show tomorrow??

#1 Son:
Friday afternoon was #1 Son's 7th Grade Band Competition. They are a very small but powerful band. They played well and looked great. Unfortunately, they didn't place. #1 Son was disappointed, but I don't think it will make him practice any more or any less. They have another competition at Busch Gardens in May. If they don't place, at least they can leave their sorrows on the roller coaster!!

Saturday brought #1 Son's basketball team one step closer to 1st place. They beat the Gold Shirts in the semi-finals and have the finals next Saturday. #1 Son is a terrific defensive player and did his job well. He protected the basket and got the ball back to his teammates over and over again. The game was exciting! Mr. Bug was so hyped up at one point during the first half, that Little LadyBug suggested he take a trip to the men's room to calm down. I had to laugh! She did have a point...

Today is supposed to be a gorgeous day - 75 and sunny! If I didn't have to ring handbells in church this morning, I'd consider playing hooky just to get outside sooner. Alas, I'll have to do my duty before I can head outside...

Little LadyBug and I are going to paint a ladybug on a large flat rock that I found. We are going to stand it next to the mailbox. If it comes out cute, you'll see a picture... If it doesn't work, we'll put the rock back where we found it...

Have a great day!
