r.i.p. little frog

I really do have the hand of death when it comes to marine life. One of out little frogs died sometime this morning. Rest in peace little frog.

jumping bullfrogs

We went to the Pioneer Celebration at Willow Park this year. We walked around and looked at the booths. We went and watched the candy cannon (it wasn't as cool as it sounds). And we got ourselves two miniature frogs!

Now we need to name them...

griffin family reunion

My dad's side of the family decided to have another reunion. This time last year I was pregnant and it was Joe and mine's anniversary.

This year we blew some bubbles.
Drank some soda.
And got a little wet.

wonderful wizard of hogwarts

I've been waiting for this day every since I bought my tickets two weeks ago. Joe and I even went to the theatres an hour early! Sadly, I was disappointed. The movie is similar to the book, but as it lets you know in the credits, it was based on the novel. Based. I guess that means you get a lot of artistic liberties. *sigh* I enjoyed the book much, much, much more than the movie. I hope that the seventh/eighth movies will be able to run more along with the books than this one did.

biting the bullet

We had so much fun playing the Wii at the Sparrow's that we went and bought our own! We bought it used, but it came with four games, extra controllers, and the Wii Fit sensor board. This is our Christmas present, but I can't complain; Christmas in July! Ask me how I'm doing in December when Christmas really comes around.

wii believe

Joe and I went over to the Sparrow's house today for a little BBQ. Afterward, they let us play their Wii and I love it! We got weighed and scanned on the Wii fit and then played a round of bowling. Both Joe and I now want a Wii. So, if anyone out there wants an old school XBOX with 2 controllers and games have we got a deal for you!

The Sparrow's have a little rambunctious little girl. She liked having Corban around as long as he wasn't touching or getting to close to her toys. Liz later told us that Zilla will dominate someone who doesn't fight back. Poor Corban. Who knew that he needed to learn street smarts at such a young age!

Thanks Sparrows for a great afternoon!

gravity

Why do babies love watching things fall? Recently, Corban will push and chase anything around the house. This invariably leads to the stairs where he pushes/throws said thing off the stairs and watch it fall down. He then will lean over to see if he can reach the object. Scares me to death.
