This is the picture of a tired little girl.
Its sort of been the norm lately. We have pushed Reese so hard with one thing and then another and she puts up with a relatively hectic schedule with ease....but she can't hide the tired in this shot.
After last weeks four days of fun, this weekend was a two day blink of an eye. We went to Nora's for a cookout / luau and broke out the cornhole boards for their inaugural competition. I still have a little touching up here and there on one of the boards but all in all they performed amazingly. Now...I did not perform well but Nicole's boyfriend Michael is like the Tiger Woods of cornhole...nothing derogatory meant by that...and WHUPPED our tails throwing the bags. Very impressive Michael. You should become professional.
Donna and Shirley took some throws at the boards and did pretty well...You don't just walk up and start owning someones cornhole....it takes time and patience. (so many different ways for that to go....I'll leave it up to you guys to form your own outcomes.)
Reese pretty well had an acre to run around on and needed to be right in the middle of the cornhole "court" most of the time. She's a social butterfly and wanted to get the scoop on Daddy's new boards.
Nicole was awesome with Reese for a little while. Not that Nicole started doing anything wrong....Reese just got tired of sitting in one place....check out the red cheeks. She takes after her Daddy, always hot.
After chow, Nora decided we should play some games which means everyone participates no matter how embarrassing the game may be. This one had a spoon on a string and you had to snake the spoon through your clothes and hand it to the next person. I was at the end of the line and ended up with a sweaty spoon. (not really but it was hot outside so I'm just guessing.)
We spent today at home chilling and waiting for the sun to show up. We went to the pool for about an hour and when we got ready to leave....the sun came out. But sun or no sun, Reese did great. She loved getting thrown around a little and just had a great time. I think we are going to use the pool alot this year which is A-ok with me. Especially since it just wears Reese out...she fell asleep in about two minutes tonight.
Mom and Dad came down for a bit so we hung around and Dad tried out some cornholing action. So far they seem to be a hit and I want to make another set just for shiggles. And that, is sort of it. Back to the grind on Monday...oh joy. Hope everyone has a great week.
