The boys love playing with Papa trains!        

Tonight Nana and Papa treated us to a stay at a hotel and dinner!! THANK YOU!!!


The pool was cold - burr! The boys had so much fun and spent over two hours in there.

Papa took Jacob and Adam to see Monster Jam. He was also able to get Jared a ticket at the door so I drove him there. Eli and I had fun hanging out at the hotel.  I took him to the pool for a little while. Later Vikki came to hang out with us. She brought yummy fruit for us to snack on. Then she took Eli to the vending machine and he picked out some m&m's. She stayed until Jared and the boys got back. They sure  had a great time at the Monster truck show and were excited to tell us about it.

Jacob had a lot of catching up to do today because his reading book had to be back tomorrow. When he got home from school he had a math subtraction paper to do. This took him a long time with lots of tears. Then he had to read his vocabulary sentences to me. He did his 15 min reading with Daddy and then worked on the reading response sentences he had to write for each story. He only stopped to eat dinner. I felt bad for him so we let him stay up a little past his bedtime He asked if we could play Candyland. He played games with me and then with Daddy. Jacob doesn't usually like playing games. He was so much fun to play with this evening. When I won he was giving me high fives. When he moved to the ice cream cone and then won he had his hand in the air as he cheered. Then he watched something in the office with Daddy while I did my boxing exercise.

       The helmet got crushed in the mail so has to be replaced. Jared is modeling the rest of his bee suit.

The boys were off school on Friday and today. Jacob and I built my log house lego set.

                                                      

Adam and Eli playing with their swords. Jacob said they looked like Captain Hook and Peter Pan.

                                                        

Daddy picked Jacob up from his Ceramics class this evening. He got to see Jacob's classroom and his glazed pieces which will be fired this week.

                                   Jacob made this chart for science on how he used water.

We sheared our 9 pregnant ewes this afternoon - phew! 

                                                    

First thing Jacob said this morning was, "My box comes today!!!" His bean bag chair was coming today but he was more excited about the box. Well his came in a bag and he was disappointed. He was very happy thought to get the tv box and had fun with it.
