Jordon and Jacob's Easter Baskets

4-9-2021 

Friday we trimmed the ferns between the house and the driveway.  My wrists have been kind of sore from all the work in the shop so I bought wrist braces.  I could run the hedge trimmer ok with them on but picking up the ferns was an issue.  Vera did all the loading and unloading, you can tell she grew up on a farm the way she handles the pitchfork.

I replaced a couple of planks that were rotten on the back deck today.  I took a break while the end cut solution soaked into the wood and came in the house.  My timing was great because there was a hard hail shower while I was in the there.  I didn't think to take a picture until is was changing to rain but the hail still showed up.

Jordon had his first T-Ball game today.  Afterwards they stopped by to pick up the kid's Easter baskets we had gotten them.  They were camping on the Oregon coast Easter weekend.  Jordon played with the construction toys we got him for a long time.

Jacob sure impressed me when he figured out how to turn on his Easter hen all by himself.  He has sure grown and it is hard to believe he will be two next month.  I got to show off the shop before they left, then I finished up the deck job.  This evening I sorted a bunch of screws that were in my old parts cabinet.  I also covered the new lilacs as we are supposed to have near record low temperatures tonight.  It was a good day that seemed to just fly by and we really enjoyed Debbie, Josh and the boy's visit.
