Saturday Afternoon

JD spent the morning with Dad while I went to my workshop again. We had some fun this afternoon after I got home. We went to El Gallo and had some mexican food. Here JD is enjoying his chips while he waits for his food.

Dad needed new work boots so while we were there JD and Dad modeled some hats. What a handsome pair they make.

On to the mall! JD was sad when all the Christmas decorations came down BUT since lawn mowers took their place things are looking up. We always have to ride a few red ones before we can shop.

The Clapper

I went to the Law Related Education workshop today and had a GREAT time! They always give out lots of fun freebies. Today I got these red white and blue star clappers. JD played with them all afternoon singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star the whole time!

Sweet Georgia Brown

We took JD to see the Harlem Globetrotters. Here he is trying cotton candy for the FIRST time. He made a face like it was a pickle and then refused the second bite. How strange!!! The boy didn't want to eat sugar!!

JD enjoyed the game and laughed out loud when he got splashed with water. YES, our seats were on row 2 and when they did the water stunts they were right in front of us. Aunt Pat got him a basketball but once he got his hands on it he wouldn't put it down. He even tried to bring it to bed with him. That's where I put my foot down. We regularly sleep with a Thomas train but I really didn't want to share the bed with a basketball.

Sam's Pizza

Since George isn't home I decided JD and I would have a gourmet dinner. Here he is enjoying his Sam's pizza. He thinks whenever we go into Sam's we should eat pizza regardless of what time of the day it is. YUM - nutritious and delicious!

When the Cat's Away . . .

. . . the mice play. In this case, at Chick-fil-A. Since Dad has gone to Mexico AGAIN this week JD and I had chicken for dinner and played in the playground. JD loves it and it tires him out for the evening. The only problem is getting him to leave. He would play for hours if I let him.

There's a House in our House

Santa brought this tent to JD for Christmas. Yesterday while I was busy at mock trial Dad sat it up in our living room. JD calls it his house and has taken a nap and watched movies in the house. Anybody want to come visit us? We have your guest room set up in the living room.

Cut - AND - Mock Trial

This is one of JD's favorite activities. He likes to cut. Just give the child a pair of scissors and a magazine and he is happy for hours. OK, well maybe not HOURS. He is happy for quite a while though. He is getting quite good at it. He knows how to hold the scissors and works with them pretty well. Maybe he can grow up to be a surgeon?????

I know the title of my blog is Fun with JD, but today I had some fun with the mock trial team. Here are the little darlings. They are a fabulous, fun, smart goup of kids. They had the best time posing for some action shots in the courtroom before our trial started. Unfortunately we were eliminated from the contest in the semi-finals. DARN!!
