Happy Birthday Reid-o

So Reid had his Birthday today at Lifetime Fitness for a Swimming Party and it was GREAT! They swam for an hour and then had pizza and cake and then we opened gifts and hit the road. The kids loved swimming and they closed the pool just for us. But Duke pointed out later...That is why you paid for it. But the cost was not outlandish....not cheap but hey it is a pool party and pizza, staff and facility. He invited a few friends and Devin, Brewster, Partick, and Ethan came and Dale invited Jacob his little buddy and it was a good time. The weather outside was UGLY but the indoor pool felt wonderful and the staff did a good job entertaining the kids.

Yesterday we had a little bit of a scare. Reid fell off the curb....sounds innocent enough and bit the street....or at least tried b/c he bit thru his lip! Lots of blood, and a scared kid we trucked off to the Urgent Care Clinic just to make sure no stitches were needed and the Dr. said we can if you want to minimize scarring but would only need one and it would be cosmetic since no muscle was involved....so instead of torturing him with numbing shots and a stitch we said decided for a character buiding scar that will be on the inside of his mouth. Then headed back home to show it off and run around a little bit more. So all is well.

We have tickets to the Harlem Globetrotters at the end of Jan and I am obsessed with getting gear for it....not real sure why but I want the head bands and jerseys ...yea get a hobby Susan but I am a dork and we have 1st row tickets and I really want to get Dale and Reid on the court! yea I am a DORK I KNOW THIS....so if you have any idea lemme know.
