On the veranda at Martha Washington enjoying the good life


yesterday but too cute to not include











In front of the old main Barter

Tuesday, GC 08

We went to Barter this morning for a 10 AM performance of Sleeping Beauty. We arrived a bit early so had time to toss the football to release some of that energy that had accumulated in the boys in the hour car ride.
We also had the chance to walk through the lobby of Martha Washington Inn and I told them how great grandfather, Dr. Tom McKee had gone to dances there when he was a young man. There were even some old photos on the wall which were probably from the same era. Liz seemed to enjoy knowing that.
The boys seem to really enjoy theater. They were literally on the edge of their seats and I regreted not being able to photograph them so that you could see their response.
They came back to the house to play in the yard. Probably the most popular game that they play together is Star Wars with the $1 foam rubber sword from Target.

announcement to family and friends

The testing for the orange belt in Tai Kwan Do will take place about 10:00 AM on Saturday. They are going to have a lesson at 9:30 and then will be tested. All of our friends are invited to observe. There is a nice place to sit and observe through a window. This is a big deal for the boys so hope that parents will be here.

I swear, there was no benedryl involved...

Wahoo! Liz and I can watch Oprah. It is 4:00 PM and they are all asleep!!

More Monday

Ah summer! Rolling down a hill on a summer day.

Poor Elizabeth, the boys pick on her so much, humph! Wish that I knew how to show you the evidence on the video. Perhaps later.

We took a picnic and went to the playground. It is very warm today but a beautiful day. John said that he was tired. I forgot about the change which Master Olsen made to our schedule. He changed it this week form 2 until 9 AM. Just didn't set into my brain. I knew it. Also, the lessons are just 30 minutes this week. Have tickets for Barter tomorrow morning so we won't make that either.

Monday, June 2nd

Hey everyone,

Just a few photos from Sunday, at the end of the day when I realized that I hadn't taken any. We went to church and SS and the boys were very good. No resistance to going to the classes. Helps to have a group.

We ate lunch with Carol and I was proud of them. Came home and played outside. We read about Thomas Jefferson before bed. Think that we will go to the library today.

Photos are of wounded warriors who were having sword fights in the yard.

Group of children is nursery when Jim and Cheri Miller were playing dulcimer and guitar for them during church.
