The boys enjoyed holding our chicks.
The boys seemed to enjoy the country meals.
Mathew wanted strawberry shortcake for his birthday. I had gotten fresh strawberries at the grocery store on Monday so to enjoy them while still fresh, we had his "birthday dessert" a day early.
Mat's Birthday Dessert
Who would think an old dolly could be so much fun? Even Grandmom was given a ride on the dolly!
Jake would have his Thunder shirt out, on or around when we watched the Thunder play-off garmes -
different locations especially if they were behind in the score.
Grandpop taught their history lessons.
Delivering Meals
Two times while the boys were here we delivered meals to the shut-ins in Roff.
Their job was to help load the pick-up, hand me different items for each one's meal, then help unload when we returned to the Center.
The older ladies enjoyed seeing and visiting with the boys. I think there were odds placed on how tall Jacob would be when he stopped growing. I believe 7 foot 5 inches was the tallest prediction.
Don't you just wonder what this expression was about?
One task the boys did was to put cages around my tomato plants. What a good job they did!
The next day we had strong winds and the cages withstood the wind - a good test for them!

Mathew was the one to help me cook and clean the kitchen.
Jacob cleaned the bathrooms for me.
