Hodge Podge

It's been a while.....I will be the first to admit that I've been addicted to the Olympics. I stay up late every night watching the fun unfold. It may be the thrill of the sport, the love of competition that runs deep in my Snyder blood that I haven't tapped into for quite some time, or the joy of watching someone fulfill their dreams after so much work. I don't know but I love it. Therefore blogging has taken a back seat. I'm just going to throw some random updates and pictures together for this post.


This is a typical FHE. Let me explain...the boys get assignments for FHE, one of them being singing time. I believe Luke came up with this keeper - everyone wrestles dad and whoever pins him on his back gets to pick the song we sing. This usually goes til everyone has done it. Are you really surprised that our family of four boys figured out a way to involve wrestling into FHE? No better way to invite the spirit but with a little family wrestle mania. They love it, and I mean all of them (including Jared).

The boys had a 5 day weekend break from school so we blew up the air mattress and stuck it in the playroom and let them sleep on it all weekend while watching movies. I remember loving to sleep somewhere different when I was little. I think they thought it was cool. I snuck in later to get a pic when they were sleeping.

This pic I had to take because it reminded me of a pic I took 4 years ago when Rees and Luke were about the same ages. Sometimes I feel like my life is a big deja vu.

Over some of the break the boys did some art/wood projects they had. They worked hard and it was a good break from TV and legos. I didn't take a final picture of all of them, maybe later.
