Nate had an AWESOME game today. He tends to be a hot and cold player....some days he is really into the game & some days he is not so much (he can tend to be more like a spectator on the field). Today is one of those days when he was in the zone & played his heart out! He scored two goals! Great job Nate!

Josh decided today that he is going to start a rock collection. After Nate's game we headed out to the Rock Shop to find some pavers for the front of our house. While there, the boys were allowed to pick out a special rock from a bucket of shiny colored rocks....Josh fell in love with rocks & has decided to start a collection!

As far as our pavers....we sort of got a great deal! I say sort of because we decided to look through the stock of discontinued bricks to see if we could find something that will work. Well, we did & were offered the bricks we wanted at $2/sq which his less than half price. We only need a 200 ft2 of pavers...which was a little less than half of what was left. After some discussion, the guy agreed to sell us the entire pile for just over $1/sq ft. So we got an awesome deal but ended up with more than twice the bricks we originally came in for. We bought the extra because there will be enough to pave the area between our house and patio...someday....for now we will focus on the front of the house.
