Keeping up with 12 year olds

James brought his friends up here to celebrate his birthday. He did it a couple of years ago and had a great time, so here they are again. A little football and then Papa Pete's Pizza was requested.


After a little Xbox it was off to the creek. They had a good time down there exploring the new bridge that is going in.

After we got back, they ran around with the Quad and trailer for awhile. Then it was time for more Xbox until dark. Then it was outside for a game of flashlight hide and seek. Being kids they wanted an adult along, so off I went. I was it the first game, thought I had found them once when I saw all these eyes, turned out to be three deer. The second game was much easier, I laid under a bush until James found me. Now it is more Xbox for them. James and two of his friends are spending the night, but have to be up early for games so we should get to bed at our normal time.

Get out and play a little, keeps you young.

Agates

It was a nice day today. James had a great time with the new XBOX. I made them take a break from it and play outside. The kids asked if we could make a trip to the creek, so I put a pad in the trailer and off we went on the Quad pulling the trailer with James and Parker in it. Auna is turning into a pretty good Quad driver and drove us all the way down. The kids always have fun at the creek looking for Agates. Today they did not find any, but other trips they have found some really nice ones. Most of the ones James finds have ended up in our pond which gives it special meaning and some fun memories. This evening we went to a get acquainted dinner for our new pastor. We had a nice time and she seems like a real easy to be around person.


Hope you had a chance to enjoy the Sunshine like I did.
