Daddy Daycare

The BCC Montessori School was closed on Friday, unfortunately, due to an air conditioning repair. Since I had to work, Terry took the kids to work with him...the first of many days spent in the gym with Daddy I'm sure. Friday also happened to be the day that the team took their pictures for their basketball program for the upcoming season. Little will the BCC Titan fans know what was going on behind the scenes when Terry took his headshot for the program. (I especially like the suit jacket/basketball shorts fashion statement that my husband is making. He's so fashion forward.) Go Titans!

Basketball Stars

I do believe our own Olivia Janae Parks might just be the next Candace Parker. Here is a video of Olivia at work this morning. She scores, grabs the loose ball, stares down TJ and then scores again. 20 months folks...mark my words. I'm pretty sure we'll be sending this video to Pat Summitt.

To his credit, TJ has similar skills...unfortunately, he was a little camera shy this morning.

Way Too Long

It's been way too long since I've posted. Here are some random pictures from this week...Enjoy!!

Weekend in DeBary

Well, the Parks (minus Terry), just returned from a weekend at my parents. We had a great weekend! My parents got to spend quality time with their 'grands' and I got some rest and an opportunity to watch football with some friends:) I also got to visit my old neighborhood where I/my parents lived when I was in high school and throughout college. It was so surreal to see that 3 houses down were houses still under water from Tropical Storm Fay a few weeks ago. Pics are below. Crazy.

Fay, Fay Go Away!!!!!!!

It's been quite a week of firsts...

TJ said his first sentence 2 days ago. He grabbed some bananas that were on our kitchen table and asked "What is this?". I believe my mouth is still open in complete shock. Of course he hasn't said it since...

TJ and Olivia are experiencing their first tropical storm, Tropical Storm Fay. (Thankfully they are not experiencing their first hurricane!) They have been home from school for 2 days now and we are just finding out that school is closed tomorrow as well. Thankfully, when they are off Terry is also off because they follow the same schedule as BCC. The kids seem fine...they are just getting some extra playtime in the house...TJ took a loooong nap this morning and they both have enjoyed running around the house in their raincoats. Anyway, Fay came yesterday and has stalled over Brevard County...it has been raining for 1.5 days straight and it doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon. To tell you the truth, it hasn't been that bad - just extra rainy and windy. No thunder or lightning...no damage or flooding around our house...and we haven't lost any power. It's been a good first tropical storm for the kids! I just wish it would leave already!!!!

Here are some pics of TJ and Olivia (in her raincoat), of some palm trees blowing in the wind in front of the townhomes across the street from our house, and of the grassy area (which is now a lake) across the street from our house.

Love...part 2

...here's the video to go with the pictures:)

Love

My babies were so cute last night! They were hugging and kissing each other and holding hands:) I have some video but I've got to edit it so I can upload it...it's apparently too big of a file...so, for now, pictures will have to do. (Oh, and excuse Olivia's shirt...apparently it's a magnet for spaghetti sauce!)
