A Great Saturday

 Jayson went to a Stake Activity Day and when he got back he had some serious chess games with his Opa. Caleb got into the game a little bit, but it was Jayson trying very hard to win.

Lilly and I have this agreement. Every time she sees me she brings her stuffed animals and blankets that need repair. On some vacation somewhere I mended an animal and now she saves them up for me to fix when we get together.


Repair jobs

Serious chess moves with Star Wars characters


Even Caleb gets in on the chess action

Meanwhile.....Caleb and Lilly are making rolls - the old fashion way

Nice and gooey



After the preserve walk we had gone to our favorite strawberry shack hoping to get some strawberries. We were disappointed to find a closed sign on the gate and the doors all shut up tight. Sad. We had been looking forward to that juicy fruit.
The day was really good. We listened to the kids imaginations and enjoyed one another. Jayson was inspired and got most of his week's homework done. He had 80 minutes of the 100 minutes needed for P.E. done because of the hike. The kids were good at breaking up their play into different segments and took naps, quiet time and ran around the house at appropriate times. 
Jeffrey decided to treat the kids to Pizza and they really enjoyed that too. Then it was of course, ice-cream time again! It was decided that you can't have too much ice-cream but you can have too little.
