oh, and a Norman Rockwell weekend it was...

nanna and papa came into town Friday night. Spent the night, then They took Ryles to her recital rehearsal ( since they would not be able to see the actual recital) while i took I-man to his soccer match. Ian had 9 shots on goal (honest!) but either had the goalie save or missed the goal all together. He seems to have mastered the "get the ball, and go like mad toward the other teams goal..." concept. Still doesnt like to mix it up too much with the other players.

After the rehearsal and soccer match, I went with the twins to Greenville Pickens speedway ( see pix below).that was realy fun. Ryles actually watched without headphones for a while, while I-man demanded he have them on before we even got out of the Explorer.

Then Yesterday was Ryles big day. Aunt Ellen was in town, and we went to the recital My mother and bother were ther, as well as Brandy and AJ. mucho thanks to them showing up to sit through the 2 and a half hour dance tour de force. And then we went to eat at Monterays or whatever that place is called where we had the mexican version of the Mad About You waitress, or Fifi from friends.... then it was back home...

i really like my life...2 good kids...some pretty slick friends...pretty wife...Nascar tracks close by.... decent college football, above average pro baseball, above average pro football teams to root for...the good ole USA...sigh...
