Proof that one can sleep on the couch...

  While at Grammie and Grandpa's, the boys enjoyed several things.

Building...Jake and Grandpa spent a whole afternoon putting together a forklift.  It was tedious, but they were both patient with the process.  And Jake was delighted with the end result.

Sleeping...Joe took a LONG nap on Friday (that's what nearly 5 miles of running does to the body).  And, we had to include this picture for Aunt Jen so she can see that at least one person in the family can find a comfortable position for sleep on this couch!
 Games...Bingo, Dominoes, Chess, and Tic Tac Toe were among the hits this time.




Jewelry...Jake's next letter in his homeschooling course is "J" for Jewels (Jesus is more valuable than anything else.).  So, Grammie has some jewels and some jewelry making items.  Thus, I had Jake spend some time hearing about jewels from Grammie and doing some jewelry making with her.  He loved it and even made a necklace for himself and a beautiful bracelet for me (of which he picked out all the colors and sizes).

Junior Rangers...Both boys completed Obed Jr Ranger booklets with Grammie and received their pin and badge.  They proudly wore the pins and carried around their booklets and other items in small gift bags.

  2. :) Good point...I was amazed that after I carried Joe mid-nap downstairs and laid him on the couch, he scooted to a position and conked out for like another hour. I guess 3 foot people are the comfortable ones on that couch. ;)
