A day in the life of..

We had a big weekend this weekend. Saturday morning Tyler had a soccer game and Papa and Lillie came and so did Scott. They didn't win, but near the end of the game it just started pouring! Of course this didn't bother Tyler in the slightest. Kids just love playing in the rain. Saturday afternoon Tyler and me and went to the Gasparilla Children's parade. We met Joe, Carol, Nick and Gina there. Tyler got like 200 beads! He was in heaven. We got really lucky and had a front row spot on the parade route. Tyler was catching beads like nobody's business! he caught a football, candy, coins and even a bag of popcorn. I am not sure what it is about beads, but kids just love them! We stayed and watched fireworks and went home after. Tyler was so pooped he fell asleep on the way home.

Sunday was the big Pinewood Derby race. Mike and Tyler turned the piece of wood they had into a tank. It was really great! (Yes, this is the same wood that Scott butchered!) It ended up being 12th place overall. (Out of 45 cars!) Tyler was pretty happy with that. Considering this was our first Pinewood Derby and we had NO idea what a big deal it is, we did pretty good.
