 I trimmed mugs this morning and added handles.  At 9:00 I headed to Delta to pick up Jacob.  He had to be to Meridian at 10:00 to take a test.  I worked on moving the slide into the cubes and organizing them.  We got Eli's new saddle today.  I cleaned it up with some saddle soap.  Its really nice.  Eli took care of the animals.  I added the thumb rests on the mugs.  Jared went to Bay city to get some guitar lesson books for Adam and to pick  up the clarinet we had worked on.  Its Jacob's old clarinet which Eli is going to use now.  We ate a late dinner.  After dinner we played minecraft with the boys.  Jared got fitted for his Cpap machine today.

Jared here.  We took a trip down to Indianapolis to see Mom and Dad during the boy’s springbreak.  Headed down on Thursday and back on Saturday.  Jacob had clarinet lessons so we had to be back by 5pm.  We had a great time visiting and working in the yard and cleaning the garage out.  We also cut mom and dad’s cable line… ok so that wasn’t fun.  We were burring the line that was newly installed that ran around the house from the box to where it goes inside.  Well we decided to clean up some of the old wire underground near by and … well lets just say that it wasn’t old wire.  It was the wire that ran from the pole to the box on the house.  It was now all underground… 30 -35 yrs ago when it was originally installed in was in the air … so not anymore.  Besides that we had a great time.  We found lots of old antiques and old photo slides in the barn.  We brought home the slides and got a slide projector and screen off of facebook market place.  And we watch slide shows in the evening now.  It’s a lot of fun.  Lots of pictures I don’t think I’ve seen before.  Proof that dad once didn’t have a beard and also proof that Eric got dirty as me on camping trips… ok almost as dirty.  Trip was a lot of fun and we headed home.  Oh yeah we also fixed up mom and dads kitchen table..  Recoated with polyurethane.  Mom set some hot cookie sheets on them and … well lets just say it needed to be re-sanded and recoated.  And Eric couldn’t put finger prints in it this time…HA! That is all I think.

 Jared took Jacob to school this morning for Delta.  We picked him up from Delta around 10:00 and then headed to my parents house.  Vikki and the kids were there.  Nana had yummy muffins and coffee made.  We played sequence.  It was Nana, Vikki, and I vs Jacob, Adam and Peyton.  We played a few games.  Jacob was really tired and took a nap on the couch.  The boys and Peyton helped Papa outside.  They got to go up on the roof so Jacob could fix the siding.  Nana had turkey sandwiches and chips for lunch.  She made root beer floats for desert.  Eli and Isaac had a ton of fun rollerblading in the basement. Nana and Adam taught me how to play skip bo.  We also played phase 10 together on our phones.  We left around 5:30 and headed home.  This evening we had fun playin minecraft with the boys.
