Timmy was riding his bike the other day and I noticed that his knees were touching the handlebars so I decided to get him a bigger bike. Since he was getting a new bike I called Josh over to try sitting on Timmy’s bike to see if he could fit on it. He started to pedal and I realized he wasn’t tipping so I let go. He can now ride a bike without traning wheels. Here is a picture of Josh riding Timmy’s old bike…

Here is Timmy riding his new bike with Josh…

After the Pinewood Derby we went back to St. Mary’s for another CV3 camping trip. While we were there we met one of the local party animals, Paris. She is a deer that was abandoned and has adopted the state park as her home. We were told it was okay to feed her vegetables. Here is my mom trying to get her to eat a piece of celery…

Here is Samantha trying to make friends…

There was also a pack of wild pigs that ran around. I decided not to get too close so here is a picture of them through our rainy windshield…

Paris decided she really liked our campsite so one of the days she stayed by our fire and laid down for a few hours. Here is a picture of Paris by herself and a couple of Samantha bonding with her…

In March Timmy had his first Pinewood Derby. He decided he wanted a cool car instead of a fast car. Here is his car that he made…

Here is Timmy holding his car…

Here is the troop leader loading Timmy’s car onto the ramp…

And here is Timmy’s cool car going FAST!….

Timmy ended up coming in 3rd overall for the local competition!

In the middle of February there was a freak storm in Statesboro that brought with it…. SNOW!! I have been in the Boro before when it snowed but this time it was really coming down and it actually stuck to the ground and stayed. The kids all went out and had a snowball fight. The only problem occured when Timmy put snow down my mom’s neck. Timmy and Josh had the same sweatshirt on and mom went to retaliate against Timmy and instead she pushed Josh face down into the snow. Josh was not very happy with grandma! :)

Here is a picture of the bikes and the picnic table the night of the snow…

Here are some  pictures around the campground and the town taken the next day….

Anyone who reads this blog will not be surprised by me being extremely behind. Right now I am sitting at the Hyatt in Savannah for CommerceV3’s Second User Conference. The Hyatt is doing such a wonderful job that here I sit with not much to do…. but since my computer is here I really have no excuse for not updating the blog so…

I know I mentioned back in January that Samantha was going to the GSU Cheerleader for a Day program. Samantha had SO much fun. Here she is sitting in the stands enjoying the basketball game…

And here are pictures of her performing…
