Griffin and Delaney were acting a little funny, you know, when they are up to something but you don't know quite what? Then I heard a big commotion, running through the house, lots of laughing and two sheepish kids who came in to tell that they were sneaking spoonfuls of sugar out of the canister. The funny thing - they each accidentally got a spoonful of flour!!!! Wrong canister!!! LOL!!!!!! PPffhhhttt! Bleeeccchh! Yick! They are still saying their mouths are dry! Got what ya deserved, didn't ya?

Happy 2009!

Ahhh, it's the new year. Here's hoping that 2009 is a good one. I have several resolutions, one of which is to update this darn blog on a regular basis. We'll see, won't we?

Some pictures of Griffin. He had fun this season and I *think* he'll play again next year.

Laney in her first season of softball. She enjoyed playing catcher the most and by the end of the season she was really becoming a good hitter.

Love this cover! It reminds me of the Mark Spitz poster that was hanging on my friend's closet door way back in grade school.

Watch Out Michael Phelps!

We have had such a busy busy summer - baseball and softball early this summer and then the rest of this summer -- swim team! Griffin and Delaney both decided to try it this year and they loved it -- even the everyday a.m. practices.

Delaney swam backstroke mainly, and freestyle a few times at meets and she did super. Some 3rd and 4th place ribbons and a trip to the finals in her age group in backstroke! Yay for her!!! At the awards banquet she got a trophy for "Most Improved" - very proud of herself (it totally surprised me, when I realized they were talking about her!!!).

Griffin swam 4 events at almost every meet and ended the season with 16 1st place ribbons and he swam three events in the Finals, finishing 1st, 4th and 5th! Wow, huh?!? He also got a special trophy at awards night for "110% effort" (another surprise when I again realized they were talking about one of my kids!!). So here's their pics -- I am so proud of them.

And keep an eye out for them in 12 years at the Olympics, they are both planning on being there. We had a great time watching Michael Phelps, perfect timing with their interest in swimming!
