Some cuteness about my girl
Anyway, we went to field day with the homeschoolers group friday and the kids had a blast. I have realized Adreana is so competitive. If it is a competition she wants to be in it. Thankfully she doesn't seem to NEED to win which makes this next story so funny.
She tried the bean bag toss and I am not sure what she did when she threw but it went slightly sideways, almost backwards. She can throw better than that but she didn't when it counted. So anyway they made them go stand next to the bean bag. She ended up being the shortest throw. They were only giving ribbons to top three. Benjamin and a couple other boys when they saw all the bean bags flying over their head left the scene and went to play at the playground but not my girl. She stood her ground proudly until the winners were anounced. On the way back home as we recalled the adventures of the day she said that her throw was kind of backwards but that it was okay and it was still fun. I hadn't said anything because I just didn't know what to say so her admitting it made me laugh.
On a better note the kids did win 1st place in the three legged race. We don't know anyone there (yet), so when they announced that it was time for that race and to find a partner I was so relieved that we have each other. They raced like if they had been attached forever and had a HUGE grin when they won... they were the only team that didn't fall!
1st place... upside down.. But 1st place anyway!!!
Something else happened that was extra cute except it was Benjamin (well it is cute now it was infuriating then!).
At the end of the competitions there is a water balloon fight. I had spent quite a bit of time that morning getting them ready and Benjamin couldn't wait to throw them. Then all of a sudden he starts screaming I rush to get him out of the fight, getting wet in the process. When I ask what happened he said: I GOT WET! She wet me. After a minute of explaining to him the concept of a water balloon fight he went back to the balloons and would cry every time one hit him. But just long enough to get another one.
And on completely unrelated note:
Jorge was watching the Poker championship on TV when Adreana walked into the room. Jorge and I were talking (about celebrity apprentice mind you) when Adreana interrupted:
Adreana: I know what this game is about
Jorge: You do?
Adreana: Yes
Jorge: What is it about.
Adreana: It is a stacking game. See, they are seeing who makes the biggest tower.
We also got Adreana the Wii littlest pet shop game (with the discover card that she got from her bday from uncle dan and tia Marleny) this past saturday. Well yesterday she called me in to name one of her pets. It was a hamster:
Me: What do you want to name it.
Adreana: S#%t
Me: What?
Adreana: you know chit, like in chit chat.
Me: I think we need another name.
I hope you got a bit of a laugh from these. They sure were funny to me!
