Well... Dylan had to go to the ER again. He had a baseball game last night and we got home about 8pm. We wanted him to go take a shower, but he was hungry. So he popped the top on a can of Chef Boyrdee raviolis and when he went to toss the lid in the recycle bin, he missed. So he was going to just flick it in the bin with his foot. Well... the can lid won the fight!
He took the deadening shot like a man and four stitches to the big toe later and we were back home by midnight. UGH! Poor little guy is laid up for the next few days.

Just getting started
Hi there everyone...
I thought we could give this a try for all those who want to keep up with the Ethridge's. I'm not very good about calling everyone and typing is a better form of communication for me! Let me know how this goes for you guys and if it bombs... I can always delete the blog!
So - let's go with the latest...
Dylan is playing summer baseball and his team just keeps winning their tournament games. Although we like for his team to win... secretly all the parent's are ready for this season to be over. Dylan has mostly been playing catcher, but every now and then he plays outfield. He does a stellar job at both (yes, that is a Mom's opinion), but he truly excells at catching. He has also picked up golf thanks to JC. Turns out... he is pretty good at that too. He played his first 9 holes on Monday and I think par is 36 and he golfed a 56. I don't think that is too bad for a first timer.
Clayton has been a video game junkie most of the summer. The plan was for him to find a job this summer, but everywhere he tried... he was told he had to be 16. Since he can't drive... that really limited his options. I really don't think he was too bummed about it. He is still playing his saxaphone and doing very well at it. If you ever want to see him in action... check out the church website http://www.greeleywesleyan.org/ and watch the worship services. Every now and then you can get a glimpse of him playing his horn. He had been taking bass guitar lessons too, but his teacher (our next door neighbor) is moving out of state so that has ended for now. I don't know if he will want to continue or not... I guess we just have to wait and see. Now - here is the funny part... Clayton has also taken up golf. I know... he isn't much of a sports kiddo. The thing is... he is good at it too. He played his first 9 holes on Monday too and he hit a 55. Of course he had to one up his brother! OH... and he has his permit now... where oh where have the years gone?
Bobby is still working at CareStream in Windsor. He works a swing shift and he hates it. He is looking daily for another job, but nothing has happend for him yet. I'm still at the church and I love it. I have really been able to expand my skill set and all the while... enjoy my job. The church is busy trying to branch out beyond our walls and we currently broadcast our services to the Internet where we are watched by thousands every week. We are also looking and trying out the possiblity of being a satalite church for several small churches in the denomination. It is pretty exciting and while I have never done this kind of thing before... I am up for the challenge in figuring it all out.
That is just about it for this post... reply to the post... let me know how you are.... Better yet... Come see us up here! We would love to hang out.
