Lizards & Vacuums

So Saturday was Ryan's first Little League game, he coaches, not plays. ;)

The kids got to go out and hold the flag during the National Anthem.

You can see Aubree. Karson and Ethan are behind the flag.

Karson was OCD insistant that the flag not touch the ground, and therefore drove everyone else nuts in the meantime.

Ryan's team is of course, the Red Sox, and one of the mom's asked me where our family got all our Red Sox gear. I told her from our closets. She was confused as to why we would just have it on hand. The funny thing is 4 years ago, that would have been me.

Our family was in charge of the "concession stand" and the raffle tickets.

It's a very pathetic thing when the six year old is better at math then everyone else, and by everyone else, I mean me and Karson.

I always get all nervous when having to figure out appropriate change with people standing there staring at me, obviously already having figured it out in their heads, and then they throw in multiplication with the raffle tickets, I was all a fluster. And Karson would stand staring blankly at the money tin when I told him to give the person three dollars back.

Ah, the joys of math homework at our house. In the meantime, Aubree's keeping track in her little notebook how many "customers" we had.

Math. Gheez.

On another note, I've caught myself using the "quotation" marks with my fingers while talking an unnecessarily excessive amount. I think I used them about 53 times in the meeting today, and it didnt even apply to "what" I was saying. ;)
