Trucks & Cars

Levi plays trucks and cars all day long. 

He made one exception. 

Grandpa Mike’s New Adventure

Grandma Susan gave Grandpa Mike a ukulele for his birthday, and he’s been taking lessons! He knows quite a few chords now. We hadn’t seen him play yet so the boys were very interested. It was fun to watch him explain all the little details...where his fingers go for each chord, different types of picks, and his cool tuner. 

Happy Pentecost

Biggest & the Smallest

Levi hadn’t seen this game before.  

He found it very fun, and Augustine found it very fun to watch Levi enjoy the game. 



His hands went up every time Augustine got a point. 

Workshop

It may be time to have our last fan of Bob the Builder...

House Update

A friend of ours is having a garage sale this weekend so I’m selling a few things on it. I pulled a few things upstairs in preparation and of course the boys are going to town playing with the toys going out. 

We’re done with the little playhouse, but before it goes Elias gave it new security system, which is the piano keys on the door. Very high tech. 

Then he got to work building a wall around it. 

Once the wall was up he gave it new shingles...on the wall. 

Then he “cemented the wall” and built a deck on the front. 

With that many improvements, we should get top dollar for it!

The Weekend

Saturday always brings a new load of library books and everyone stays busy reading. 

A friend of ours introduced us to her new boyfriend and we’ve been filling their orders of date night envelopes. 

If you want a nap you may have to be ok with a five year old on your head. How does one fall asleep during Free Willy though?! It’s still a great movie 28 years later. Levi LOVED it. 

Elias really wanted to go help the neighbor when the rescue trucks arrived. I convinced him that Bill & Mary had all the help they needed. 

Levi likes Elias’ backpack leaf blower. Always dress to impress, even in lawn care. 

Every once in a while Lewis pulls out the spectacular marble run Deb found for us and wows us with his engineering abilities. 
I especially like when he builds with the xylophone pieces.
