Home Alone

Well, Todd took off for his Alaska vacation yesterday. The kids and I will be home alone for the next 10 days. It is going fine so far. We have plans to go to the West Coast Game Park midweek. I am really looking forward to that. There are all sorts of loose animals roaming about that you can pet. Hopefully the kids will get to pet a lot of animals. Then we are going to the zoo at the end of the week. So, it will be a week of trips to see animals.

My Kids Love Coffee

Okay, not really. We just got back from a trip with Granny, their great grandmother. She drank coffee each morning and the kids decided that that was neat. So now when they drink their apple juice, they call it coffee. Gabriel got stung by a wasp today and told me that he needed to drink coffee to feel better.

It's a Jungle Out There

Our grass in the lawn has grown up over night, so it seems. It is about to my waist. The kids think it is great and pretend it is a jungle. Andrew is actually shorter than the tallest stalks and Gabriel can just see over them. So today they had great fun making trails and watching out for snakes and spiders. I am pretty sure I saw a tiger. :)
