Gage's Monster Truck

Gage drew a monster truck and wanted to post it on the blog. One thing about all three of the kids, they love to draw. And they are good at it too.

Gage types, "I like monster trucks. They are cool. I like that they are really big and that they drive over other cars and do big jumps."

Evil parents or just really, really smart...you decide!!!

Normally, we spend Labor Day weekend with the Wilkins family in Pinedale. This year the doctor advised us not to go because of the contractions I have been having. We were so disappointed. It is always so fun to be with family, playing outside in cooler temperatures.

Instead we told the kids that on Labor Day we labor the whole day!!! We work really hard and get things done around the house. They believed us and got right to it. We got our house sparkling inside and out. Finished all the yardwork, washed both cars, spotlessly cleaned all bedrooms, vacuumed, dusted, mopped, scrubbed, etc. This is normal stuff to do around the house but the abnormality came because there were NO complaints. They sang and laughed and had a great time. We were finished by early afternoon and they were sad because there was no more laboring to do!!!

I wonder how many years of this we have left before they catch on...
