Jolly Ole St. Nick

So the boys are now 12 & 13, but never too big for some St. Nick. Although obviously they know who the fat guy is....... ( well maybe not fat, but definately jolly ) they still look forward to it. They give not so subtle hints as to what they would enjoy. So before school they dig into their ( hmmmmmmmmmmm 2-3 ft ) huge stockings that grandpa pete made and find their goodies. They each got a movie they wanted. Ky loved his so much because he can't get enough of Will smith saying A-- H--- in Hancock. Trev got Step Brothers and I am actually going to watch it now with him and Pete. Here are some of our Morning joys. Don't mind Trev's I don't even know what to call it.

Anything to get out

Kyle was punished the other day for leaving his room a TOTAL mess. He had time in the morning before school to get it done, but sometimes ...... :/ his racing little mind gets distracted. Well, that morning happened to be another one of those mornings. I did not check before he left for the bus. I assumed he did at least a fair job. He was so convincing he was going to get right at it before my shower. After my shower I yelled to see how it was going and he said he was working on it.
Then when I walked by to drop off laundry to Trev's room. I did a double take to make sure I was seeing what I thought I was. Yet it still looked exactly the same as when I initially saw it. I mentioned it whne he came home. He gave this look like ( Oh ya!) and knew he was in the wrong. I am sure Trev on the computer or a number of other things took away the importance so he just decided to say I'll do it later. Little did he know that that wasn't going to cut it. You play you pay. Anyway he didn't complain at all and was going to take it with a grain of salt as usual. But....................................as soon as Peter and I talked about just shoveling instead of snowblowing. He said with the plan in sight. "Oh I'll do it "! As he shoveled I took some pics cause he was so damn cute. Although he offered he sure was giving some forced smiles of excitement.

Injured, but not out of touch

So as most of you who follow our family blog know, Trev is hurt. The start of his wrestling career cut short and smashed by a broken nose and collar bone. What the Orthopedic Doc says is a three month or more injury which may or maynot require a fixin. Although we say slight chance we still keep our fingers crossed that it doesn't come into play. As for right now he may be out of his regular wild routine, He does manage to stay in touch with the scene and circle of MANY friends. He sits sometimes at night texting 3 & 4 people at a time. We haven't gotten our bill this month but I can only imagine the nuber of texts. He says he is trying to beat Kyles at 1200 or so. We shall see.................Oh and Yes we do have unlimited. ( thank god)
