Some fun stuff












We had a great visit with Grandpa Platt when he came down for a few days. It seems like when we have visitors we put them to work, and Grandpa was no exception! Our Saturday was spent loading/unloading and laying new sod in our backyard. And then he even rolled a big heavy water barrel over it to even it out. Boy! It sure was a good time.

Cael has gotten the bug for cartoons and the computer. It seems every other word coming out his mouth is to ask when he can play the computer. Sunday evening we were trying to keep the boys entertained, which included going for a beautiful walk, eating apple crisp with ice cream, and eventually sitting down to an entertaining round of balloon twisting. Cael wasn't satisfied with the crazy hats and swords dad was making for the boys and wanted armor. This is some video of him admiring himself in the mirror, and as usual, Brecon is doing all he can to follow the craziness of his older brother. Cael loves the armor and wants to wear it to church next Sunday. We told him that would be a great idea so he better put it in a safe spot. I'm sure it will be destroyed by that time.

Your kids are growing up so fast. I can't believe how much they've grown since we left. I'm glad your dad likes to help you at! You will love your new yard this summer.
