Fishkill Fantasy Baseball Weekend

Can you believe it is that time of year again? That's right...fantasy baseball draft occurred this past weekend. There are always two things you can guarantee, 1-discussions of players, strategy and trash talk 2- continued talk of players and strategy after the draft.

Thank goodness that Jenn, Luka and Aidan also get dragged along for the weekend. After all four boys managed to take a nap, we met at the playground for some fun.

I would consider my risk taker to be Garrett but Connor is very observant. He watched an older child go head first down the slide so away he went too.
Of course I dragged Nana to the park with me. It works to my favor that my blue eyed boys can basically make all their grandparents do anything. As you can see, my boys are used to lots of tender loving care.
Connor was so excited to see Aidan. Since Aidan is the same age as Garrett, Connor views him just like his brother. So he was extremely eager to give him hugs and to make sure he was okay.

How do you define the word priceless...to me it is the picture below. (keep in mind that is Aidan not Garrett with Connor)
It is hard to keep the Buneta boys still to take a picture. I was absolutely thrilled when I took this action shot. On the move but in sync.

The playground was fun but I think I learned more than anyone. How do you keep an eye on four kids at one time...you don't. There was three of us and it was almost impossible. It is like when you start a game of tag and everyone disperses into different directions...that is what it is like bringing the boys to the park.
We had such a great time in Fishkill even though Connor and Garrett had some early mornings. Garrett thought 4am and 5am were the perfect time to wake up...thank goodness he did manage to fall asleep until 6am. :) One of my favorite moments was taking Garrett out to the street and letting him kick a soccer ball down the road. He ran and ran and ran. He kicked the ball into a neighbors yard so he could meet the new neighbors kids and then he ran up to another neighbors house and knocked on the door. The funniest part of the encounter is that the neighbor's house he chose was the same house Brian used to visit when he was a child. Quite coincidental.
Where are all the pictures of Aunt Ellen, Uncle Kevin and Grandpa? Great question! I never think to take the camera out while we are in the house. A very dopey move on my part.
