Andrew 4th Birthday

What do you get when you take 40 four year olds and let them run around in a bounce house facility for two hours… utter pandemonium

Andrew celebrated his 4th birthday at Pump it up with his friends from school, Tee Ball and around the neighborhood. Andrew had a great time with all of his friends and running around, screaming, tackling and oh yea…jumping.


I believe Andrew is going to be a typical “no fear” Noland as he decided late in the day that taking the stairs up the slide was no fun and to climb on the outside to get to the top. I guess he is living up to his Little Monkey nick name.


This was the first year we did not host the party at our house, so no adult beverages were served. The addition of adult beverages would have made it a bit more fun for the adults I believe. Stacey had gotten back from South east Asia (Indonesia) Saturday around 9 am and the party started at 2:30 pm. We all know she is crazy but this may have been the proof as she setup the schedule…

It is amazing how the time has flow by, it seems like only yesterday we were trying to figure out what to do with Andrew when we brought him home. Well maybe we are still trying to figure it out, but the time has gone by really fast.

Typical Noland Weekend – Landscaping Project Part 1

The weekend started out with a shovel and 7 yards of dirt delivered. I guess this is what I like to call a typical Noland weekend. I have been talking about doing the flower bed expansions since we moved in the house about 7 years ago and figure it was time to get it on.
Stacey thinks I like to tackle major projects when she is out of town. Last year I finished the grill when she was some where. I guess it is the lack of other “projects” that I am able to focus… or maybe I just get to this time of the year and realize I once again have to burn a bunch of vacation.

I slept really good Saturday night and looks like Sunday is going to be an early night again.

Tee Ball – Mets at Dodgers

Todays game on October 2, 2008 was against the Mets.

The batting look a strange turn when Korben decided to swing his bat both ways and connecting on the swing back. The other kids decided that look a lot of fun and also tried the new swinging style, luckily Coach Marc was able to help out the team and get them hitting in the correct direction

Andrew was is normal fast self and was ripping up the bases

Blade decided to do some dancing on 1st base as he waited for the next hitter. I think he has a future in a yet to be named reality TV series.

Andrew had one of this friends from school on the Mets, as always he is glad to see his friends.
