sunflowers and sunshine

TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS EVER. you want to know another thing that is my favorite. playgrounds. i wish i respected my playground at that good ol' leaksville spray a little more. i think i played on it more after i graduated from the fifth grade than i actually did when i attended the dang school. i remember one specific time my senior year it snowed a ton..more than the deep south has seen. me and my closest gal friends treked over to the old elementary school that lives on the same street as my parents house. it was quite funny actually cause we had on snow clothes ya know like..bibs and hats and gloves and rainboots {snow boots just arent cool enoough or pretty} we had to jump a fence cause we were too lazy to walk any further in the snow up to our ankles. im pretty sure egg got stuck on the fence if i remember correctly. and then lou just dove right into the snow in the big field oh it was so funny. good times with those girls i had. but back to summertime..today the little boys, ramadan and daniel had a baseball game..and well i decided since there is a nice little playground at the park we shall sit there and spit sunflowers seeds on the ground and catch some vitamin D. i had one thing to tackle first.. the ipods. you see every child in this newman family that i have grown to love has a dang ipod. and they only use it for one thing..games. they dont understand why i dont have games on mine and that all i have is music..they think thats so weird {honest, they tell me all the time} so i couldnt recall if any of the kids had gone outside today while we were at home, so i told the boys to give me their ipods so they could play..well obviously "playing" is torture cause they both whined like little girls. 5 minutes later they were having a jolly ol' time on the playground. then they got bored of the playground after 13 minutes of playing and started asking for their ipods..no way jose. i gave them permission to roll in the grass {with african hair this is basically the stupidest thing to do} i gave them permission to wrestle. and i was finding some laughs in making eva run to every tree in that park. sometimes i think of her as a puppet..is that bad? i feel like thats bad {sorry cherish, i didnt mean that} then us girls harmony,faith,eva..we lounged in the grass and talked about girl things..actually we were spitting sunflower seeds at each other and eva kept farting and then she started to eat grass which actually wasnt that surprising at all. then it was finally time for the boys game to start after an hour of relaxing at the playground. 

i dont know what it is about little league baseball but it melts my heart. i dont know if its how the helmets   are way to big for their heads..or the way they practically spin around when they swing at the ball. or maybe its the way their little midget legs try to get to first base. but you can guarantee that if i have myself little misters when i get to that age of reproducing..they will be enrolled into some dang little league baseball. and plus what girl doesnt like baseball pants..ya feel me?

now please enjoy my telephones pictures of our adventure.

 when i like daniel best..when hes asleep

after i took his ipod..his five minute drama queen session

the glorious playground 

rolling rolling rolling

UFC?

of course the black girl won the race

evatard took second like a champ

they then drank all my dang fiji water..nobody understands the term "swig"

i think what started this whole escapade was me telling her that my 

cat use to eat grass when her tummy hurt..of course evas started to hurt after

i told her that and then she started to eat grass..go figure

she was OVER the baseball game..after the first inning

then i surprised the kids with a drive to jamba juice for myself.

have a happy week ya'll
