Evan turns 13

This is not Evan, it is a raccoon I saw one morning while drinking coffee.  He was taking a bath before heading in his hole to bed.

This is not Evan either.  Dania and I planted the most beautiful hyrandgeas I have ever seen.  One was a purple/blue while the other was a vibrant pink.

 

 

 

Here is the birthday boy, he is now taller than his mother. Nate took these pictures and the lighting and comp was so bad I had to post them in sepia.

Evan wanted a small sleepover with 2 of his friends, pizza and an ice cream cake.  One of his friends who had one broken arm already, fell off the tree swing and broke his other arm.  I spent several hours in the ER with said child.  It was so sad and I felt terrible.  I think he managed to still enjoy his birthday, although I never asked. Happy Birthday dear Evan, this one was a birthday we shall not soon forget.  

Motorcross main event Atlanta

Motorcross is big in our house and every year we make the trek to Atlanta when the main event hits the Georgia Dome.  Dania and I have opted out the last two years, and it has become a father/son thing for many of our friends as well. This year they headed down with the O, W, H families and had a great day, while Dania and I ate, cleaned the house, and watched a strictly girl princess movie.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Revenge of the teeth

The month of April has us going to see the dentist 10 times. 

Our family has had perfect teeth until now, although Dania had a cavity when she first came home, so I can't really claim perfection.   For starters, I am almost 42 and have NEVER had a cavity, I even still have my wisdom teeth and crowding has not been an issue yet.  I now have a nice big cavity in an upper moler that needs to be filled, and I am feeling quite chicken about having it filled.

Evan has 3 cavities to be filled in 2 appointments this week.

Luke has no cavities but has to get skin removed from in between his two front teeth, and they told me in another year or so he will have to have braces.

Dania is the only one that has a single appt. since she came back looking good.

Austin is scheduled next week for upper braces.

We are going to be spending a lot of moola since we have no dental isurance.  On the bright side I am able to completely keep up with my school reading and pleasure reading while I sit in waiting rooms around town.
