Jen & I have taken up hot tea again. I finally got her drinking peppermint; she used to drink green and some other flavors. I used to drink earl grey, but I have been pretty much peppermint lately. We sweeten it with honey instead of sugar. We have lots of tupelo honey around the house because of Michael.
I always used to get peppermints from you and grandpa and have always loved them. Michael seems to have an affinity for mint also so perhaps it is genetic. By the time you get this, we should be arriving soon!

Ready, Aim ....
This was winter's last gasp. As you can tell by the absence of Alex's hat and gloves it was pretty warm. In fact, it was about 50 that afternoon! We should be with you at the end of the week and that will redefine warm!
The boys are still talking about the beach, so I would guess that they are excited. Everything is going pretty well; 2 night before we go to Miami, we are taking the boys to see Spider-man Live! at the Palace theater. I am guessing that they will really enjoy it - our seats are 5th row center! See you REAL soon --- Robert

First The Chair Then The World
In this particular picture Michael & I don't look great, but Alex sure does. I have christened it "First the chair, then the world!", a moniker inspired by Alex's "B" movie villain grin.
Jenny plays lots of board games with the children, but I am the physical parent. When they need to get something out of their system we play "Hop on Pop" or "Lobo." I have it on good authority that they may be playing in a theatre near you this spring. ~ RAP

Hurray
We took the boys to the Circus for the first time this week, and they loved it. They saw tigers, elephants, horses, trapeze artists and acrobats. As you can tell from the pictures, the did more than see the animals, Michael & Alex got to ride the ponies and elephants; that was certainly their favorite moments.
We took Michael's friend Andrew with us; as you can tell he had a wonderful time also. As much fun as the children had, it was clear that Jen had the most fun; in her defense, she had never been to the Circus either! ~ See you soon, Robert

Jenny, Michael & Alex's first trip to the circus was a rousing success. Long after the audience had hushed a certain female's claps could be heard echoing through the three rings.
Michael and Alex rode the ponies and Michael went on the elephants twice! I would say that the hightlight was the acrobats, elphants and the Human cannonball. When ask if he would like to be a human canonball, Alex responds "Noooo."

Bowl-O-Rama
Jenny took the boys bowling Friday with their friends Hayden & Blake. The boys really like to go bowling, my dad has even taken them once.
I have been told Michael is a natural at it, must be those Ohio genes. We will be there really soon. Michael and Alex talks about the beach everyday. I'll make your text green in honor of St Patrick's Day.

Holding Down The Fort
I call this picture, "Holding down the Fort." Michael loves the snow and plays outside even in winter. This particular day it was 40 outside so it was a good day to play in the snow.
I mentioned last time how the boys talk about the beach each day. During a snowball fight, Jenny asked Michael what he likes best -- the Snow or Beach. He responded the Snow. He certainly is an artic animal, whereas Alex blooms in the warmth which you will be able to see for yourself very soon.
