Pump It Up

Happy 7th Birthday to my boy! Wow, does time ever fly by, I’ve been updating this blog for 5 years now. Carson is now about finish 1st grade and move ahead to grade 2! He's been working hard on his homework, with Nanny especially. We are all looking forward to his graduation ice cream party, having just enjoyed his birthday party at the Pump It Up bounce house a few weeks ago. North Carolina is heating up as summer approaches and Carsy has begun enjoying our neighborhood pool, ice skating at dad’s rink and even the Cinebowl arcade, where he recently spun the ‘big wheel’ and won 1000 tickets on his first try. Carson and I spent one Saturday morning roller blading from our place (Cary) to Durham, and ended up traveling 6 miles in 1.5 hours. Kelsey was generous to give us a ride back :) . C has also taken an interest in my hockey games, he begs me to take him and let him in the dressing room with the big guys; we have considered letting him suit up when we are short players ;) . It’s been a fun couple of months, and he is still playing extremely well for his roller hockey team, paired up with friends Evan, Alex and Lincoln, they can’t be stopped! It’s really a blast to watch and he makes his dad proud. He has joined a soccer team for the fall also. And he continues to make me laugh, including the other day when he compared my pseudo-beard to "Philip’s from the Guess Who board game". Let's buy the Angry Birds movie buddy, so I can watch it with you ‘forever’, as you suggested.
