Mr.Sports

It's been three months since my last post, and Carson is currently enjoying Fall while looking forward to being a Star Wars character for Halloween. Tonight, Carson played in his second real roller hockey game (last week he was surprised that he had to take turns on the bench, lol) and scored 6 goals for the green team! He was then 'traded' to help the black team in the 3rd period and scored another goal to make it 7. What a stinker.. he definitely has his eye on the goal. This end of summer, Carson traveled to Canada for Brendan's wedding, and saw Niagara Falls for the first time up close on the ferry! He loved seeing all his relatives, especially Lilia, who brings the biggest smile to his face. He also danced the night away at the ceremony, and keeps asking to go back to Canada. Carsy also laughs when our new cat Brynn jumps and flips in the air chasing her toys..it's quite a full house these days! Mr.sports has also been leading his soccer team with multiple goals each game, and he loves to say his team won, even if it's what he hoped happened :). He speaks often of his classmate Geo, and neighborhood friend Lohitha. Carsy always wants the same lunch as Geo, and one day he said Geo and he would travel to Canada together. Some nights he and 'Lohi' play until it's dark and cold, and he wants to play again the next day! Carson is a social boy, and we are all very proud of him. Cousin Mark said of him, 'with that sharp haircut, he looks like he's ready for Yale'. It should be a fun Fall season including an upcoming trackout vacation, trick-or-treating and cheering on the Canes! Little buddy was sad to see Nanny+Grandpa leave for their cruise! But Kelsey and C enjoyed reading and doing homework together. We also fit in some golf..I hope you let me get a hole in one next time little dude. ;)

Bring on 1st Grade

Dad is really slacking on the posts! Time to get caught up...there's a lot to talk about! Mr Carson just started 1st grade after a 1-week break following kindergarten graduation (year round schooling)! Little dude put on a good musical show with his classmates at the end of year celebration, including Will-I-Am's 'what I am'. Carson will miss his teach

er (Mrs. Crow) but he was excited for the first day of 1st grade. He is really coming along with his reading and understanding of what he reads, and he actually enjoys doing homework :-) . Since my last post in February, Carsy has checked off several items in his 'to do' list, like: an Atlanta Braves game, scoring hat tricks in soccer and hockey, playing 9 holes of golf, celebrating his 6th Birthday with his classmates at Kidzu museum, camping and touring the Biltmore house, and eating his favorite Boombalatti's ice cream a few times at the beach! Carson is excited about living with Kelsey and Reptar, and his upcoming trip to Canada in August!

Totally Ridiculous

It's 2015 and Mr. Carson has become a full-time student, a roller hockey player and role model for his precious cousin Lilia. Today he loved reading Kelsey's 'Book With No Pictures' and marveled at the rare sight of snow falling in NC. Anxious for a snow day tomorrow, Carson loves to laugh and enjoy his world.. especially Disneyworld, and our winter trip to Orlando was memorable. Sporting his Pluto hat and a large grin, Carson handled the Peter Pan ride, Pirates of the Caribena and the hot tub with ease. Cars also skied for the first time in Boone, and he's ready to go again. His new word is 'ridiculous', and he uses it to describe everything from hockey moves to Spongebob to the gummy bear song. And let's not forget Christmas, being with M-E-L et al was wonderful and long overdue, and he definitely made some lasting memories. Carsy will start soccer again soon, and hopes to see the Canes in person asap...all before he turns 6 ! Happy new year buddy.
