Justin had a birthday and I happened to be at school eating lunch with Olivia when lo and behold, he walked outside to eat lunch also which happened to be 100ft away. So we enjoyed eating lunch together, all the while missing Isaac.
This was his box in a box in a box in a wrapping in a wrapping.
This is what was inside (not the tablet).
And here's the dinner that takes me 20 years to make because I always forget how I make it cuz I only make it once in a blue moon. (yes, i'm following the recipe each time) However, it is delicious and even the kids like it! Dilled Turkey Cutlets, or was it Dilled Carrots and Pecany/Limey/Dilled/Twangy Turkey Cutlets?
E&I picked out their clothes for the next day. Awww....
Just because Olivia wanted some pictures of us matching. (maybe cuz the boys match so often???)
Water coloring coffee filters...
...to make Joseph and the coat of many colors. Which turned into a whole family with nice coats. Thanks Aunt Tara for the idea!
Elias watching Isaac play on the tablet, gun ready for anyone who may cause danger.
Awesome neighbor Kristin who helped make 2 chicken tetrizinis and 1 giant bowl of rotini salad! The two girls were tough sports, they stood there for almost 2hrs helping me!
Gramp and Nana came for a one day visit. The was the only picture I got. Olivia had done Nana's hair while she was sleeping.
Fun meeting Gma...
...and Gpa for random get togethers during school days.
E, I, &O helped our neighbor do some yardwork (although this picture doesn't really show it). Not sure how much work got done, but they kept her ears busy!
Took Elias to the zoo and saw this bear. You could stand at the glass where the dark line is at the bottom left of the picture. It was way cool and the closest I've ever seen a bear here, but Elias didn't want to get out of the stroller. I guess I don't blame him seeing the bear claws.
Zoo snack.
Also at the zoo. For some reason, sand doesn't gross me out when it's cool outside.
Scottish/Irish Festival in Dandridge. They were watching a dog parade.
Fun to listen to, but a little on the annoying side after a long while.
Kid area was right next to stage area...hence leaning toward a little on the annoying side.
1st time Gma has ever gotten her face painted! I convinced her to get a football since Gpa was home watching the game!
Isaac playing some random girl a game of checkers.
He chose the ladybug. It's so cool to see him make decisions that are not the same as Isaac or Olivia.
Olivia also got her name on the other cheek.
Pretty sunset at G&G's house.
We've spent quite a few Friday nights their since J has started his EDS program back in August.
After going on a hunt in a dark room for Elias, I found this during the "last check" for the night. Despite what it looks like, Isaac insists that the floor is cooler than his bed, and therefore "chooses" it some nights. I would have to agree with him.
