Something new...

Sick of being trapped indoors allllll winter long? Don't know what/how/where to spend your free time? Need a release but don't want to expend a lot of energy?

Well, then I have your answer.

You should buy a....

PING PONG TABLE!

Thanks to Al's (for those of you non-Loganites, Al's is local sporting goods store) AWESOME moving sale (seriously, lots of things are 60% off!) this competition quality STIGA Ping Pong table is now ours. 

It's been a while since I've seen my husband this excited about something. Funny part is when he first suggested the idea of us buying one and I had 0 reasons why not. As you can kinda see from the above pic, we have the perfect rectangular room for it in our basement (ping pong tables are huge), and giving this previously un-used RED room a sports theme is surprisingly helping us deal with the color (one of those whatwereyouthinking previoushomeowners moments). And as it turns out, I'm pretty good at it! 

Benjamin and Grant also quickly caught on to its coolness and slide up their play table to stand on so that they can play too....just be prepared for some friendly serious PP Smack Talk. ;) As Bart keeps trying to convince me, Ping Pong is a real sport!

Hope you all are having a good week. We all picked up somekindaawful body achy + sore throat bug and it's not been fun. On a happier note, Elyse started clapping, Grant can now proudly sing the full abc song, and Benjamin has specific "ping pong attire" as a part of his wardrobe.
