An Eventful Weekend to Say the Least!

Ty insisted on taking a picture with every Hokie Bird he saw! We took about 6. Here are 2 of the 6.

Wow, once the weather starts warming up, it certainly provides for much FUN and I guess by fun I mean outdoor fun, of course. On Saturday, Darren and I took Ty up to Blacksburg to visit the Virginia Tech duck pond. Before stopping there, Darren wanted to visit the brand new and very stylish shopping center that Bolling Steel furnished steel for. The shopping center is called "1st and Main". The shopping center is no where near filled with tenants just yet, but the shops that did exist were very unique shops. The restaurants are also incredible. We bought Ty a slice of pizza at "Sal's Pizzeria", but then headed over to "Salad Creations" for ourselves. YUMMY!!!!!!! If you live close or close enough, YOU MUST GIVE IT A TRY!

The picture below is a picture of some of the steel Bolling Steel furnished for this shopping center. The "orange gobbler", as they call it, should have cost over $100,000.00 to make, but it was sold to them for approximately $20,000.00




















Ty took "Butterscotch" to the duck pond with him. Butterscotch, if you don't recall, is his class mascot.

On Sunday, we went to Church and then headed over to Sam's Club, but have no fear, we made the most of the beautiful weather by loading up the minivan with a soccer ball, a bat, and some baseballs. We let Ty run his little and athletic heart out.
Ty starts on a soccer "league" April 4th, so we wanted to make sure that he gets some practice time in.

I had to document his first pair of soccer cleats.


Running around with daddy! Getting lots of exercise.


Ty shoots and he "Scores!" HE was really into it. Check out his arm.
