Pod Squad

Football season number three. Won a lot of games, lost a few. Playoffs are this week so cross your fingers. It's their last chance at the championship, last season of flag football at Barry. Sad kinda, but mostly exciting. Good luck guys!

Halloween 2010

Our Halloween started out on a Thursday morning. Briley had a little party with some friends while Bryant was at school. This first picture I put on here because I'm pretty sure my mom has a picture of me at this age in a similar costume and pose. It was really humid that morning so the camera lens kept fogging up.

My little Angelina Ballerina

Bryant had a school party on Friday, where I got to leave him from 8:30 am till 3 pm. Felt like a long time, but they brought in a petting zoo and some bouncy houses. He had a blast. He went as Iron Man and I didn't get any pictures. What was I thinking?

When Paul and I were trying to think of what to be, out of our old costumes box, Briley wanted to try on a few herself. This is her as Elvis.

And her as a cowgirl! Giant hat for a tiny girl!!

When it came time to carve pumpkins, her mood changed. She didn't want to get dirty and threw a fit. She then would only watch from inside the house.

How cute!!!

I ended up wearing part of Paul's cow print suit and the giant hat. He ended up being a Scottish Basketball player. Wore his kilt and socks and then just his basketball get up. Finally here is my Bryant as Iron Man. He loved it!

I was in charge of the trunk-or-treat again this year. We had our second annual chili cook-off and a bunch of fun games inside, and then the trunks for trick-or-treating outside. Paul stayed and passed out candy while I walked the kids around. Had some creative trunks this year. We had a prize winner (below) and Bryant insisted on sitting in ours and helping with his vampire teeth in. Thought it would be scarier.

The next day Briley wanted to try them out too. It was good Halloween this year, but sure took it out of us.

Visitors/Vacation

Mike and Justine Young came out to Orlando for a conference and we were able to drive up and play for a few days. We met up with them at Cocoa Beach and then the next day went to Downtown Disney. Just so you know I had just gotten off bed rest so Paul had to Wheel me around, just in case you were wondering. Had a great time with them and here are the pictures.

Eye surgery at church

Paul has had this white bump growing right next to his eye since I've known him I think. Our friend Ryan who is in opthamology residency, brought supplies to church one Sunday and set up a surgical area in the mothers lounge to remove it. There it is.

Can't leave this out

While on the beach playing football with some friends, Paul hears a warning yelled out from behind him. "Watch out!" the voice screams. To see what is happening, my happy husband turns around (with a big grin on his face) only to take a major hit to the mouth by a Frisbee. I was busy talking with the girls, when out of the corner of my eye, I see Paul spitting out blood. To my horror it wasn't only blood coming out of his mouth, but chunks of tooth. Yup! Chunks of tooth. I immediately assume the worst. First thought in my head, How much is this going to cost, ( we had just taken a few other blows to the wallet as well) second thought, oh that's my husband. Maybe I should go see if he's ok. After stewing about it for about 30 min, which felt like 4 hours, our friend who is a dentist doing a oral surgery residency, took Paul to a store and bought him a little do it yourself dental kit. It held well enough to take the pain away for the night, till we could get to a Dentist the next day. A friend of a friend has a dental practice near by and took Paul in. Still hurt the wallet, but not as bad as it could have.

Before

After (Not bad)

Haslem

While Briley and I slept one Saturday afternoon, Paul took Bryant to a meet and greet with Udonis Haslem of the Miami heat. This was just before his arrest for having drugs in his car. hmmmm!!!!

Petting zoo

We attempted one day to go to a near by petting zoo. Well Miami doesn't always cooperate in the afternoons and it rained om us right as we got there. Poor piggies and goats. We didn't get to pet anything cause who wants to pet a muddy, wet stinky pig....well with the exception of Briley, so we just waited a bit and headed home. Oh well, better luck next time.

This one goes out to Dr. Fawson

Orthodics lab

Paul was on a Physical Therapy rotation at the hospital when they did their pumpkin carving contest.

Looks handsome all scrubbed out!

I'm very proud of the hard work he has put into his school work, but glad it looks like a little bit of fun considering the work load.
