This afternoon after we picked up Matt from work, we went to the driving range on the Eastside or as Hayden calls it "The rabbit driving range" due to the fact that there's hundreds of rabbits that hang out next to the range. Hayden amazes us with his golf skills. He can get some real air on the ball and knows all about setting up the tees at the right height to hit the ball. He always draws a crowd of the local elderly golfers and he's happy to oblige them with a few swings of the club and a smile. We had a great time hitting golf balls and I am reminded once again to cherish this outdoor time before it gets too hot!
On a side note, I have a really cute story from today. I'll start by explaning that Hayden always chooses what box of fruit snacks he wants for his lunches when we go to Target. It's our weekly ritual and we never miss it. He usually chooses Cars or Scooby Doo or whatever boy thing there is at the time. Well, today was a little different. He immediately went over and picked up the Disney Princess box and said he wanted those. I of course didn't have a problem with Princess fruit snacks, he's a big kid and if that's what he wants, fine with me. He put them in the cart and then said, "I picked Princess fruit snacks because then the girls will want to sit with me in the cafeteria. I like when the girls sit with me!" I had to turn away and not laugh at him since he was so serious about it, but I am still chuckling to myself as I write this. He's already working out how to get girls to sit with him. He's smart and we're in serious trouble with him in High School. Do they make a chastity belt for boys, and if so, where can I pre-order one? :)
Tomorrow there is a whole flurry of activity. After we have the soccer game and party, then shop for a car, a friend from when I was in Jr. High school invited us to the Rodeo At The Zoo night, so we plan on going there with a picnic dinner. Look for lots of pictures from our day tomorrow, hopefully some of them will be of our new car!
