tuesday afternoons

 

they are a blast!
and exhausting...

i basically start packing our water bottles and lunches as rebekah is doing her homework right when she gets home from school {and answer approx. 1 million questions and listen to 3000 very important stories} :-)

we run by the HT {harris teeter} on the way and pick up subs...freshly made and heated up for us!...3 6 inch subs feeds us all for $6 {in addition to a pound of strawberries straight out of the container and a 1/2 empty bag of Stacy's pita chips}

pat has softball games every tuesday night...so he's out of the picture :-)

joshua has practice from 4:45-5:45 and rebekah has practice from 6-7. all on the same field.
so, we set up camp and enjoy the afternoon together!
so far the weather has been great so the "plan" has worked great {except for the 45 minutes when we get home and everyone is TIRED and filthy and has to get bathed and put to bed...NOT the best part of the day...}
once the weather changes, i'm sure our plan will change, but it's been fun so far!

i love this little guy.
he goes with the flow of this crazy family SO easily.
and i just love this picture...

from his beautiful eyes
to his dirty, snotty little face

to his pudgy, filthy! arms and fingers gulping down my water {no matter HOW many water bottles i bring, we ALWAYS run out!}
