THE CHEESE INCIDENT

Having two boys is more than double the work of having just one. They do play off of each other so much. Yesterday we were settling down for the night. i was comfortable in the recliner watching Tv and my wife was in the dinning room working on projects. She had given the boy some cheese and...

I just them them both settled with a bowl of noodles, so they should be happy for a little bit. At least they are eating well tonight. They can... Sign in to see full entry.

WE SURVIVED HALLOWEEN ONCE AGAIN

It was a crazy and tiring weekend, but we all had fun. My boys really enjoyed themselves. We spent the morning at the zoo, which I have already written about. They enjoyed it. The littlest one was a bit puzzled by why he was getting candy, but was more than willing to go about it all. When spent the... Sign in to see full entry.

THE ZOO WAS, WELL A ZOO

We just got back from doing the trick-or-treating at the zoo. It was crowded, but that was not the thing that really bothered me. i can handle crowds and I understood why there were the crowds there.

JACK-O-LANTERN LEAF BAGS

They have got to be one of the greatest inventions ever. They really help make the yard work have a level of fun to it. My son and I were out there today rakeing up the yard and it did not really feel like work at all. We were decorating the yard with the yard bags and needed to get them ready...
