So, it's raining again and chilly this time to boot. However, Davis forged ahead and is taking the gutters off the house. Since they were so old and trashy, they were completely useless anyway. But, it was discovered in the process, half of our TV wiring went through them so now that has to be reworked. We'll save that project for another day though.
The boys made jewelry with Carter's rocks from his rock tumbler. Can I tell you how much I love it when boys wear chains? He's way cool now! And to add to this, he is also wearing his Dale, Jr cap. He begged me to drink a Mt. Dew today to honor his man.
Then we made bread. John Michael was a super kneader and did it great for almost 10 minutes. Now, and for the past few hours, they have been playing wall ball. This is a favorite game among the boys at the park. And they keep throwing them on the roof since I kicked them outside after one too many "oops! MOMMY! We knocked over the _________!"
Laurel has spent her afternoon running around with a recorder and blowing into it constantly making "music." It's been really loud here today. All this is coupled with the incessant banging on the house. I'm acting like this is something new, but really, it's always this loud!
And while I would like it to be toned down just a tad, whenever it is too quiet here, I miss it. And I know I will miss it when they are not here breathing all this energy into our home. So, in the meantime, I will try and relish it a little more than I do now.
Our bread is getting ready to be punched down now and this is the part I know the boys will love.....
