Introducing the newest member of our family- "OMO!"

Megan told us of a spot that she had seen turtles when she goes for walks. Curtis and Johnny, (AND ERIK) were SO excited and we left on our mission right away! You can tell I've been with Erik for a long time. (16 years since we started dating!) He told me to get a net, and a racquetball racket to catch the turtles! Only Dr. Erik would think to grab a RACKET???!!!! Here we are walking down the path to our "Pot of Gold!" (Megan said that this picture alone was worth the trip with our family!)

Here Curtis is carrying our turtle/frog tank. This truly captures Curtis with a "Bit of the Devil" in him! Notice the jersey....the neighbors gave it to the boys and are trying to brainwash them! Disgusting I tell you!

Here Andrew is chilling out watching his bro's!

The boys looked and looked and looked....but the turtles must have gone away for the night!

Curtis did find this beautiful goose decoy that Erik told him NOT to pick up! Listens well, doesn't he! Anyways, at the end of the hunt, we ran into two brothers who live across the path from the marsh. They had caught turtles earlier in the day, and gave Curtis and Johnny one!
That night we came home and discovered some ticks on us. I had two and Erik had one. So, we stripped the boys down and checked them, and then started showers. Johnny slipped on the tile, and cracked open his head and "Co-Pay Katie" was at it again! Had to go to the ER to get his head glued closed! Its always something!
On another note, last night Curtis was busy coloring on the driveway. He and the girl next door, were playing. They came from behind our house and said, "We went to the Mayors House!" They walked to the culd-a-sac behind us, and knocked on the Mayor's door. Curtis told him his address and said he drew a picture for him! He's probably wondering where this kid's mom is! I tell you, Curtis is going to give me a run for my money before he leaves this house someday!
